Having read this book a couple of times, but many years ago, I wasn't sure it would hold up. I had lost my hardback copy way back in the seventies, and could never find another, until this renewed publication.

Christopher writes in a poetic, descriptive style, and this story unfolds slowly at first. A lot of time is taken to set up the characters, and the first part of the novel is frustratingly slow in a few places. But the book is not long, begins to pick up speed in the middle, and it practically races to its heart-pounding finale.

Concerning a group of miniature people discovered living in a remote old house in the southern Irish countryside (which has become a hotel run by the woman to whom the estate was willed), this story reveals itself as something different from what it seems at first. One might think of fairy tales and pixie dust, but this yarn is more sinister, and answers fewer questions than are asked. The story is actually plausible, if one does not look at the science too closely.

My one complaint is that the characters are overdrawn for a slight plot such as this, but I think I understand why Mr. Christopher did it this way. Explaining it would give away the ending, so I'll let it suffice to say that I would have liked a lot more action and just a little less psychoanalysis of the numerous characters. There could have been so much more to this work, I feel, but in its favor, it's an atmospheric chiller with some memorable passages that lingered in my mind for years. Expanded some, and handled the right way, THE LITTLE PEOPLE would make for a fascinating movie.

Great product

If you have read Wilkerson's other books, you will want to continue with this one. Read it last. It is good, but of course not as riveting as the Cross & the Switchblade.

Just when you thought Tom Holt couldn't write an even better book, he did. Different, and very, very good. Read it!

This novel came into my awareness because of the Hector Garrido cover art and description provided in PAPERBACKS FROM HELL. A friend was enticed to pick it up and read it. Upon completion, they pressed it into my hands because “I deserved it” -- although that sounded vaguely like a threat.

Unfortunately, that cover art sets a very difficult bar for fiction to rise to. Particularly when the book wants to be quiet horror instead of gonzo exploitation. The pacing is a bit off, but it’s an easy read. We’re presented with a batch of misanthropes that are isolated in a keep deep in Irish boglands. For such a compact volume, the depth of character is effective for something approaching a dozen characters. Part of the reason for this is because there’s not much plot to compete for space. Our monsters are not effectively used, as they mostly become mechanisms to explore the guilt and regret of every member of the merry band.

This book could be seen as "boring" and full of mundane backstories and psychological profiles of the characters in it when the promise was a book about Nazi elves. Throughout my reading of this, I kept wanting the story to go back to the action of the "Little People" (Nazi elves!). The story barely touched on this at times. At the end of the book, I realized the author's intent was to write about "The Little People"-not the Nazi elves, but rather the horror of the characters being so entrenched in their thinking, mundanity, and so wrapped up in their own worlds that they could be nothing except "little people". Despite having such a crazy discovery of Nazi elves, they were all so wrapped up in their small concerns and how everything relates to them, they could see nothing else. At the end of the novel, everyone goes home, frustrated and lost, leaving their discovery of these awesome Nazi Elves alone and untouched. "The Little People" is about people's inability to get pass their own psychological perils.

Bought the book, never read it. But I felt like a book about a Nazi leprechaun that has a whip would be better than 50 Shades of Grey. I am just waiting for the movie adaptation so I don't have to spend the time reading this book though.
