Ararat

Reviews

“Chilling and atmospheric…a spooky, entertaining read.”

“If Ararat is a stand-alone novel, it is a missed opportunity to further capture an audience that is now at attention.”

“Fass’ pleasant baritone makes the horror, as it is slowly unveiled, all the more shocking…Fass masterfully sets the mood—whispering to presage the most ominous passages, then voicing the monster in conniving, menacing tones…Fass effectively voices the large, mostly male cast from America, Italy, and Turkey, but his real accomplishment is his ability to set and sustain the nightmare tone until the very end and the final, delicious twist.”

“The whole is more than the sum of its parts in this exceptional supernatural thriller from bestseller Golden.”

“The highly effective thrills of the narrative fuse with rapid plotting, plenty of tension, and high stakes. The result is a novel that will hook readers cold.”

“A thriller with an intellectual bent…ruminates on the nature and existence of good and evil while providing the chills and tingles fans of this prolific author have come to expect.”

“Golden takes readers on a terrifying journey into their own worst nightmares with a novel that is sure to chill to the bone.”

“This is the Lovecraftian horror, mountaineering, 1970s-style paranoia, theologically philosophical, paranormal, Satanic love story I’ve been waiting for…Scary and smart.”

“An extremely gripping story, with echoes of John Carpenter’s The Thing. It’s not simply the icy setting of Ararat; Golden has also mastered a similar (and similarly thrilling) sense of claustrophobic dread. It’s a creepy, chilling book.”

“Ararat has that horror-adventure vibe that’s like candy to me. Delicious Terror Candy! Golden seizes your heart in his hands with a tale as terrifying as it is thrilling!”

“Golden gives a face and a name to the darkness inside us. A compelling read!”

“A rollicking and horrifying adventure that avalanches from the top of the famed Turkish mountain…Ararat is as relentless as it is addictive.”
