A STEP PAST DARKNESS is throughout an immensely perturbing and disturbing novel. I strove the entire time reading it to think of an analogy, or to remember if I had read anything else that affected me this strongly. I still haven't recollected; but I know that this novel is unrelentingly terrifying, even when (occasionally) life seems normal, routine, and mundane. The immensity of the Human Evil [nudged and directed of course by That Which Is Beyond] is nearly to the extent of the inhuman evil! Of course, even if there wasn't something Beyond orchestrating the human minions, Human Evil would still be rampant. Almost the Evil Beyond is simply the excuse. Now, that's terrifying.
