Things are never as they seem. When you're halfway through the book, what you are guessing as the end, is way off! When you think its done, there is more. Really hard to guess whats next even. Or what the characters will do. Kept me reading until 5am!" Preview•Buy

'Unputdownable' is such an overused phrase, but this is in that category." Preview•Buy

EDGE: (novel) One of the world's most successful technology innovators is close to burn out. Desperate to find himself, he goes on a somewhat impulsive trip with a relative stranger to an exclusive snowboarding resort in New Zealand. Instead of rest, he is plunged into a world of spine chilling terror as something monstrous and unseen oozes into our reality from a place beyond time and space. <<Themes>> Cthulhu Mythos horror/thriller, new Great Old One; Mount Ruapehu, Whakappa; Snowboarding community; development of HTMD technology. <<Comments>> "The main characters are wonderfully described and you really get under their skin. It's a wonderful story with the typical unexpected turns. It's not the usual pulpy Mythos story either, it's subtle and mature affair. I can really recommend this book for everyone, especially Stephen King, Cthulhu and cyberpunk fans." Preview•Buy
