En El Hijo de la Bestia y otras historias de terror y sexo extravagante, Graham Masterton nos lleva a escenarios y situaciones propias del género de terror, donde el sexo ejerce como núcleo o motor del relato tiñendolo todo con el color de las pesadillas, de modo que podrian ser calificadas como historias que te calientan la sangre mientras un escalofrio te recorre las vertebras. Son relatos duros, inquietantes, extraños, exagerados y terrorificos, en los que se impone ante todo la maestria de Masterton para mezclar los diversos ingredientes en un coctel explosivo rebosante de terror y humor negro.
