Let me tell ya, the hype was warranted. Newman delivered and then some.Andy is a successful horor author. He's a beloved figure on his cul de sac getting along well with his neighbors. His books are featured down at the local convenience store. Although Andy is trying to get over a painful divorce where his wife ran off with the guy that she cheated on him with, life seems to be ok. Then one day, while taking his dog for a walk, Andy discovers the body of little girl who has been raped and murdered. Next thing you know, the neighbors, fueled by the yellow journalism of the local media, begin doubting Andy's integrity. Paranoia ensues to the 10th power and Andy is at the mercy of the media and his crazed neighbors that want to smell blood in the water.Animosity is a wonderful parody of yellow journalism run amok and how many of American's drink the media's Kool Aid without engaging their brains. You will cringe and shudder while reading Animosity. Newman does a wonderful job painting a scenario out of control and you won't be able to put it down. Excellent read.5 neighbors foaming at the mouth out of 5You can also follow my reviews at the following links:https://kenmckinley.wordpress.comhttps://www.goodreads.com/user/show/5919799-ken-mckinleyhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/profile/A2J1JOKW56F2YT ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Art, like morality, consists of drawing the line somewhere." *by Z***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2014* "Animosity" is the tale of Andrew Holland, best selling horror novelist, who is trying to pick up the pieces of a failed marriage. It's the first fray in a life that quickly and completely unravels when Andrew finds the discarded body of a young girl at a new home construction site a few hundred yards away from his home.Andrews neighbors feel the events are more than coincidence, they believe his past troubles and the subject matter of his work have manifested in their quiet community. His silence is all the proof they need.With "Animosity", James Newman has crafted a tight, tense, rusty nail of a story. A suburban nightmare where a man's fictional haunts have bred the real monster. *Spoiler Alert* it's man, man is the real monster. And the point is driven home with blunt force.One of my subconscious fears is getting caught up on the wrong side of the mob mentality, having things spin out of control, watching the fear feed on itself. What starts as one little seed of doubt quickly grows out of control as the voice of reason fades away. So, naturally, this book gave me a little bit of anxiety, and I was more than a little worried about the welfare of team Holland.You only get to know a handful of the numerous characters, but those few are fleshed out rather well, and in really the entire cast of neighbors forms multiple extensions of one solid entity. Couple that with a situation straight out of the evening news and solid dialog and what you get is a good time. Check it out, it's solid."A Feast of Souls" Ben Said. "Classy." ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Knocked the Wind Out of Me! *by P***. on Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2014* I've been an avid fan of James Newman for years and, although his first novel MIDNIGHT RAIN will always remain my favorite, this one packed a meaner punch... one that will stick with me for a long time.Andrew Holland, the main character in ANIMOSITY, is a successful author of horror novels. As with other authors of "genre fiction", his success comes with a bit of eye-rolling and turned-up noses from a portion of the population who disapproves of such fare. They're the same folks who believed that Dungeons & Dragons was satanic or that playing a KISS album backwards will reveal a demonic ritual.If you enjoy the horror genre, you know that people like that, though they exist, are on the fringe, and that most others see such an interest as something akin to an enthusiasm for roller coasters or a passion for mixed martial arts. It serves as an escape from the everyday doldrums of the modern world.Andrew Holland, however, finds out that one unfortunate incident can trigger a cascade of hatred, vitriol, and ultimately, mass hysteria targeting the local horror author. Each page adds more tension until something must break... and, boy, does it ever.By the end of this book, I actually hated some of the characters. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/54433428-animosity-paperback-march-15-2014](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/54433428-animosity-paperback-march-15-2014) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
