Journey into Darkness

Damn, I want this book. For those who don't know, it's a fictional book about Kane's life. Click below and scroll down for Chapter One (or part of Chapter One, anyway). It's really interesting thus far.

Some random bits of interformation from the book (Spoilers, I guess):

-Kane's birth name was "Glen Jacob Callaway".

-Kane is Susanna's (Kane's mother's) maiden name.

-Paul Bearer's real name is "Paul Grimm", and he worked in the Callaway family's funeral service as the embalmer.

-Kane's father was named "Randall Callaway".

-It appears the Kane family was cursed, and that they are connected to the car crash that killed James Dean.

-The Callaway family lived in Marfa, Texas, where the film "Giant" was filmed in the 1950's.

-Kane has some kind of biological disease (or perhaps the curse) which prevents him from feeling pain, so his father forbade Glen from playing sports, fighting or anything that could cause him to sustain injuries (which he would not know about since he wouldn't be able to feel them).

-Kane made a friend named "Brian Erben". I'm not sure why, but the name strikes me as familiar. It should be interesting to see how he connects to the story (if at all), and how Kane meets up with Katie Vick (if she existed at all).

I really enjoyed what I read, and being a Kane mark, I will definately pick this book up.
