"Do you believe in ghosts? What about the afterlife? Are you truly ready to search for proof? Ethan Jacobs is a computer programmer and amateur ghost hunter who tries everything he can think of to communicate with the dead, keeping his notes in an electronic journal. After a friend talks about a ghostly encounter from her youth at a friendly get together, things start to happen in Ethan’s apartment. It starts with noises and dreams, and escalates into a life and death struggle that challenges Ethan’s faith and his will to live."
The Unauthorized Autobiography of Ethan Jacobs is the first full-length novel I’ve read by author Dan Dillard. I was blown away by his previous short story collections,Demons and other InconveniencesandWhat Tangled Webs. This story failed to have the same effect on me. I feel the author has the rare gift of telling an amazing and powerful story in short story form, but when that talent is turned into a full-length novel, some of the magic is lost. Please don’t get me wrong. The writing was great
The Unauthorized Autobiography of Ethan Jacobs is the first full-length novel I’ve read by author Dan Dillard.

I feel the author has the rare gift of telling an amazing and powerful story in short story form, but when that talent is turned into a full-length novel, some of the magic is lost. Please don’t get me wrong. The writing was great! My favorite parts of the book were Ethan’s electronic journal entries. I’m guessing that for me, the scare factor wasn’t quite what I expected it to be. Surprisingly, I found myself struggling to get through the story. Again, this is not a bad story at all. But maybe I shouldn’t have attempted to read this book so soon after reading his other two books which I could only classify as masterpieces in the horror genre.
