This is my first book by Robertson I have read, and the first thing that caught my attention was his writing style. I was drawn to it from the grisly beginning to the climactic ending. So grab yourself a copy (it’s available from July 1st 2022) on Amazon! Just don’t indulge your sweet tooth and stay away from any cotton candy you may find lying around… no maat how delicious it may look.Ĭlowns, chaos and gore? What did you expect with a title entitled 'The Cotton Candy Massacre'? This story was anything but sweet as its title loosely suggests. And his humour balances the bloody bits of his stories perfectly! I don’t want to spoil too much of the story or content so I won’t indulge in the details but just let me tell you, this here bloodfest is a party for all lovers of sadistic killings and of those who love blood dripping from the pages! And then there’s another thing I truly loved: the humour! Christopher knows how to entertain his readers. No Jason Voorhees or Freddie Krueger but a genuine group of killer clowns. But this story goes beyond a normal slasher. In typical Robertson style readers are drawn into an eighties slasherparty in a carnival setting. I was honoured to be asked to become part of the clown posse that had the opportunity to read an ARC of this colourful cotton candy filled bloodfest. The Greatest Showman… from Hell… with clowns! (Ain’t that the toot… tootin’ truth, ay yup!) - Cotton Candy Massacre, now on VHS and Beta Max!
