I'm really not sure what all the good reviews were for this book, it wasn't very good. I will admit that it did have a continuous plot from start to finish, but the writer admits in the introduction that he wasn't very familiar with the show before he started writing it, which shows he mixes up the two characters (Dean has a vision of Jessica, etc.). He also plays a few gags with the story, specifically that he writes himself in as the first victim (it's pretty obvious if you read the introduction). The editing is horrible and the fact that the book is pretty much a series of run-on sentence-paragraphs should outrage any real reader. Honestly, as a huge SPN fan, I was pretty well outraged.

I mean no disrespect, but to me, the author did not manage to capture the essence of Supernatural, failed to make his original side characters believable (with the exception of McBain who, whilst being believable, was so original she seemed more like a self-insert from our world, than a character in Supernatural), made me doubt he ever watched the show by giving Sam and Dean plenty of dialogue I could not ever imagine Jared or Jensen acting out, as well as supplying the reader with way too many long and unnecessary descriptions of every twist and turn they took while driving in New York; it's not interesting to anyone who hasn't actually lived there. Still, the Poe storyline is good, and I can easily see Pym as a character in an episode of Supernatural, altbeit an unlikeable one.

I love the show but this was awful! It was fun to read, but it focused less on the plot and action and more on how Sam can't park and Dean loves vinyls
