Fear Comes Full Circle

I recently finished reading the third installment of the Ring series by Koji Suzuki. Loop is the third novel in author Koji Suzuki's Ring Trilogy and presents a wholly unexpected and mind-boggling conclusion to the horror tale's trajectory. It is set in a Post-Sadako era where a newly identified genetic virus which is decimating the world's population. We follow Kaoru Futami, a young medical student, as he follows a confusing set of clues which may hold the key to understanding and perhaps defeating the deadly viral pandemic. In consistent form, author Suzuki combines the intricacies of biological evolution with visionary science fiction to explore the origin and implications of the original Sadako's cursed video tape.
Having been wholly unfamiliar with the storyline of Loop prior to reading it, I found this to be a very engaging and interesting read. I guess for that reason I have decided not to divulge much regarding the plot, hoping that you'll check this out for yourself and enjoy the utter mystery of it. This falls far more into the genre of Science Fiction Thriller than it does Horror, but all of the original spook elements remain relevant to the story -- Sadako Yamamura, the ever-evolving Curse, the creepy and disturbing demise of Mai Takano, and the strange fate of Ryuji Takayama.
This will definitely keep you imaginatively engaged and turning pages as you make your way toward understanding the real nature of the Ring.
