Publisher Description
Santaroga seemed to be nothing more than a prosperous farm community. But there was something . . . different . . . about Santaroga.
Santaroga had no juvenile delinquency, or any crime at all. Outsiders found no house for sale or rent in this valley, and no one ever moved out. No one bought cigarettes in Santaroga. No cheese, wine, beer or produce from outside the valley could be sold there. The list went on and on and grew stranger and stranger.
Maybe Santaroga was the last outpost of American individualism. Maybe they were just a bunch of religious kooks. . . .
Or maybe there was something extraordinary at work in Santaroga. Something far more disturbing than anyone could imagine.

Customer Reviews
Too much Jasper's
This isn't an in-depth review. I'll just say that while reading this I started to feel like I might throw the book out if I read the word "Jasper's" one more time.
Basically the book revolves around an insular town full of a group of people obsessed with psychoactive cheese. Sound weird? I can live with the weirdness but it ended up being repetitive rather than suspenseful. I enjoy some of Frank Herbert's more obscure stuff, and while I didn't think this was horrible I'd suggest only reading it if you are a diehard fan.
