What starts off looking like not all that difficult of a case involving murder and suicide, soon turns out to be a battle with an ancient evil. Sadly curmudgeonly father figure Bobby doesn’t have a big part in this story. This book finds the troubled brothers, Sam and Dean Winchester along with their renegade angle pal, Castiel, down south Georgia way looking into murder and mayhem at a Civil War reenactment. So with as much of an open mind as I could muster, I dove into THE UNHOLY CAUSE. I was a bit dubious when I got the latest SUPERNATURAL novel for review. I am a diehard horror-head but things that make me giggle are always greatly appreciated. That said, I do think it’s very well written, with two great characters as the monster hunting Winchester brothers, and while not particularly frightening, it is often funny as hell. Lastly, despite its title and premise, I never found it scary. It stars two hunky guys and only has the occasional hot chick as a costar so there’s no real eye candy in it for me. I mean, it’s on the WB, a television network I have no other use for. Yeah I know, it’s weird and something I don’t admit to everyone.
