BOOK OF THE WEEK: THE SEED OF THE DEVIL – IRA LEVIN

Notice how I put emphasis in the title. All written in capital letters. Keep on reading and you will find out why. 

"The seed of the devil" or also called "Rosemary’s baby" in its cinematographic version, found me without even looking for it. In a walk through those typical "used books" stores, I immersed myself in the search of something interesting and terrifying and I came across a pleasant surprise.
Rosemary is a young housewife married to a theater actor. The couple is searching for a new home and they  find an department that fascinates them. But what they didn't know is that it hid a dark reputation. Both begin a friendship with an unconventional old couple of neighbors. They had strange attitudes that madee Rosemary very uncomfortable. She wants to get pregnant really bad, while Guy, her husband, gets an important role that would boost his career to stardom.
The night Rosemary gets pregnant she has a strange dream of a satanic ritual performed by her neighbors, Guy and others. The worst thing about this is that the dream was not far from reality 

Conclusion? Classic, that any horror fan should have in his collection. I definitely give it 5 stars.
