Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury

Spoiler

Wonderful. My first Bradbury book and I doubt my last. The man's prose is wonderful. It goes right up to the edge of cliche, but it feels flowery instead, and the man really knows how to turn a phrase.

Charles Halloway, the father of Will, being the actual hero of the book is refreshing as hell. Whenever Dad monologues it's just wonderful. The irony is I don't agree philosophically with everything he says. But it's fun to listen to him say it. Best Dad EVER!

It's scary, fun, dark and light, and has a weirdly happy ending. It's the first horror book I've read that I can understand how it became a Disney movie. It's great. 5 stars.
