Guy N. Smith - Water Rites (Zebra Books, 1997, 253 pages)  If you don't count The Busker a year later, this was the last horror novel of Guy N. Smith at a mainstream publisher after a career of remarkable 23 years. The last books couldn't get a British publisher which says a lot about the market at the end of the 90s. At least he got one nice last cover. |

Not even heard of this one. Return to The Sucking Pit? He sure got lucky with the cover artist — again.

Cool cover. I wonder if the novel features ruthless, upscale members of the publishing industry screaming in horror as they're dragged to a hideous fate in the sucking pit. Now that would have been poetic justice.

According to one impressed Goodreadsian, "mostly it's about a reservoir inspector not fixing a light bulb." But probably there's some more nuance to it than that.
