Legion by William Peter Blatty - my thoughts

Legion (Exorcist)Legion by William Peter Blatty
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love this book. For me, it's better than The Exorcist, which I also think is wonderful. Legion manages to combing a gripping police procedural with a stark supernatural chiller, and enriches the whole mix with some profound philosophical observations and thought provoking questions on the meaning of life and death.

And Kinderman is an amazing character, one of the best I've ever read. He's wise and real and complete. I wish I knew him.
