Undecided on this one, but fortunately Brian's pre-order model through the end of May allows me some time to consider it.
I'm not big on either music or religious themes in horror fiction (though I know the latter is a long-standing and appropriate trope), and from what I understand REVIVAL has both. That said, the purported Machen and Lovecraft influences in the story have always intrigued me and thus I've never completely discounted buying/reading this one (though I've passed up $2 tpb copies, so my enthusiasm admittedly isn't high)...so perhaps that's what this opportunity should afford me, to finally read the thing in a lovely format. We'll see.
Either way, I wish Brian lots of success and fortune in his new venture...he's certainly starting off with a bang!
