Sci-fi thriller meets creature feature horror in a page turning novel with a strong "X-Files" vibe packed with twists, action, chills and a great ending that sadly was spoiled to me by watching the 1997 movie based on it.
I used to like a lot that flick, but the book is far better and I just not understand some of the changes filmakers made like deleting agent Pendergast from the storyline and calling the monster with the name of the tribe Kothoga instead of Mbwun" ("He Who Walks On All Fours"). Meh :/

David Dalton One of my favorite books. Very suspenseful. Well written, the first Pendergast story. Great creature!
