fucking love that book, think it looses it a bit at the end though, the final battle was too abstract and cosmological and it took a bit of the fear away from pennywise I think, isn't there a few sections from 'it' perspective? Dunno, thought that stopped it being as scary.
rest of the book is creepy as shit though. Remember Bens first encounter as a kid being particuarly creepy (the mummy on the frozen canal.)
