Paul Tremblay’s terrifying twist to the home invasion novel—inspiration for the upcoming major motion picture from Universal Pictures
“Tremblay’s personal best. It’s that good.” — Stephen King
Seven-year-old Wen and her parents, Eric and Andrew, are vacationing at a remote cabin on a quiet New Hampshire lake. Their closest neighbors are more than two miles in either direction along a rutted dirt road.
One afternoon, as Wen catches grasshoppers in the front yard, a stranger unexpectedly appears in the driveway. Leonard is the largest man Wen has ever seen, but he is young, friendly, and he wins her over almost instantly. Leonard and Wen talk and play until Leonard abruptly apologizes and tells Wen, “None of what’s going to happen is your fault.” Three more strangers then arrive at the cabin carrying unidentifiable, menacing objects. As Wen sprints inside to warn her parents, Leonard calls out: “Your dads won’t want to let us in, Wen. But they have to. We need your help to save the world.”
Thus begins an unbearably tense, gripping tale of paranoia, sacrifice, apocalypse, and survival that escalates to a shattering conclusion, one in which the fate of a loving family and quite possibly all of humanity are entwined. The Cabin at the End of the World is a masterpiece of terror and suspense from the fantastically fertile imagination of Paul Tremblay.

Interesting but a bit confusing

This is a bit of a weird one, and I'm guessing the other reviewers don't like weird. But I do! Love the tension and the narrator, but I agree the ending was a bit disappointing.

Slösa inte tiden på denna boken.Meningslös och slutet blev man inte klokare av.

Fruktansvärd uppläsning, nästintill outhärdlig, gynnar inte detta verk som i sig är gränsfall till mediokert. Grundpremissen är fascinerande och tankeväckande men förblir outforskad. Det hela slutar så tvetydigt och otillfredsställande som jag misstänkte att det skulle göra. Nu kan jag lugnt skippa filmen.

The lack of backstory makes me not give a shit about any of the charachters. Badly written. You keep waiting for a clever twist or something but, no.

Pretty good book, that kept me interested almost all the way through, but lost steam towards the end. Stephen King-esque in it's writing. Without spoilers i just found the ending to be... A bit lackluster and uninspiring. It didn't give me closure, and usually I'm for such an ending but it would have made this story better for me. The narrator also has an odd cadance, and often puts an weird emphasis on the last words of a sentence. It just sounded off and i didn't get used to it.

Jag förstår inte varför den får så lågt betyg. Jag tycker den är jättebra.
