London Macabre - The Final Straight

Most of you will already know I have been reading along with Steven Savile's latest WIP London Macabre. For those of you who haven't been following, this is a dark tale set in Victorian London. Creepy, weird and full of atmosphere i'm totally hooked on this dark horror. If my regular dose of words doesn't arrive I start to nag because every few thousand words I receive I am left desperate to know what happens next.
In spite of being in the wonderful position of being able to quiz Steve on what may happen to who I still don't know who will make it through in the end because it's bound to be bloody. I have been making a case for one of my favourites to survive which has run from legit reasoning to threats and sulking. A handful of scenes from the end and i'm anxious, not at all convinced he's going to make it.
I love this book, it's not finished and I already want to tell you all about it. Very frustrating. I can say I think it's awesome and I know I am always saying nice things about Steve's writing, but I really enjoy it. His writing style appeals to me no matter what the genre, I like his twisted take on things and the darkness he brings to his tales.
The other thing though about being able to watch the WIP is it's a bit like a serialization. Every so often I get another few thousand words, another scene or half a chapter. I am inevitably left desperate to know what happens next and watching my inbox for the next bit. It's great. I love the weekly (ish) updates and it stops me rushing through dying to know how it ends and missing half the subtleties.
The cover about sums up the mood of the novel perfectly.
