Description: Praise for Echo : " Echo is horrific, poignant, creepy, brilliantly written --expect to see it on bestseller lists and year''s end best lists, and hopefully awards consideration. Don''t sleep on this one . " --Jeff VanderMeer "Hallucinatory, eerie and terrifying, Echo is an engine of menace, an icicle in your heart. I''ve rarely been so frightened, and yet so transported by a book . It left me breathless" -- Catriona Ward , author of The Last House on Needless Street "The long-awaited new novel from the Dutch author of Hex is an ambitious, capacious work [...] containing everything from psychological suspense to cosmic horror . With moments of wonder as well as terror, it looks likely to be one of the highlights of this year''s horror scene." -- The Guardian " Uniquely terrifying ... It''s rare to find a horror novel that''s genuinely hair-raising, but every chapter here introduces some new nightmarish detail that''ll push you to switch on every light in your home." -- SFX Magazine "Chilling, stealthy, horrendous, Echo grips like an ice-pick and chills like a glacier ."-- The Daily Mail " Echo is a haunting contribution to the literature of folk horror, and its scenes in the monstrous mountains convey a sense of uncanny dread that rises through terror towards awe . Few writers in our field have scaled such heights." -- Ramsey Campbell "[Olde Heuvelt''s] smart tale... creates a moving narrative that stops just short of going over the top. Horror fans will be thrilled ." -- Publishers Weekly " Echo straddles the intimate and the epic in a magical realist nightmare of love, loyalty, chills, and dread, along with a couple of genuine ''Holy Sh*t'' moments you''ll never see coming. Another winner for Thomas Olde Heuvelt!" -- Christopher Golden , New York Times bestselling author of Road of Bones and Ararat " A tale at once both grand and intimate, and every bit as dark as the mountain at its heart , Echo chills and heats the blood into a frenzy. Over and over, I read it late into the night, and so will you." -- Andy Davidson , author of The Boatman''s Daughter " Echo is a compulsive page-turner mixing supernatural survival horror and adventure . You''ll be happily rooted to your reading chair, safe (maybe) from the shadow of the Maudit." -- Paul Tremblay , author of A Head Full of Ghosts and The Pallbearers'' Club "Thomas Olde Heuvelt is a literary showman, proudly naming and displaying his influences before blending them into something unique and new. Echo is a heartbreaking, intimate, and genuinely frightening epic ." -- Shaun Hamill , author of A Cosmology of Monsters " Thomas Olde Heuvelt has outdone himself with Echo . The climbing sequences are Jon Krakauer-esque, and the narrative evokes the terror of a vintage Dan Simmons or Peter Straub novel. Thrilling, horrifying, supremely confident storytelling ." -- Nick Cutter "Can a place--say a mountain or a glen--be evil? Thomas Olde Heuvelt''s long-awaited second novel Echo delivers an emphatic ''Yes!'' on a breath of icy air. His deft prose will have you absolutely frigid, sitting up straight and hearing every squeak in the house...and savoring every delicious frozen shiver ." -- John F.D. Taff , multiple Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of The Fearing and editor of Dark Stars . "I just scaled Mt. Olde Heuvelt and let me tell you, the view up here is absolutely terrifying . Reading Echo caused me vertigo. The sense of dread inspired by this breathtaking novel -- the dread of something monstrous wearing the face of someone we love -- reaches so deep, I can still feel the lingering chill in my bones well after putting the book down " -- Clay McLeod Chapman " Echo by Thomas Olde Heuvelt is the kind of queer love story I''ve wanted to read all my life. It''s terrifying and wild--not wild as it''s colloquially used, but massive and untame and beyond the borders of the map. Like all the best horror, it will break your heart." --Lindsay King-Miller, author of Ask A Queer Chick "There''s some amazing horror fiction being written today, and Thomas Olde Heuvelt is at the forefront. As well as being a compulsively readable scary story, Echo is an exploration of love, vanity, and desire. A milestone novel from an important writer." -- Billy Martin Praise for Hex : "Hidden tensions and human weakness trigger a witch-hunt that boils over into persecution, scapegoating and a shocking denouement. A powerfully spooky piece of writing." -- Financial Times "Equal parts Stephen King and The Cabin in the Woods , Thomas Olde Heuvelt''s novel is a pop page-turner with an intriguingly weird ambience . . >, author of A Head Full of Ghosts and The Pallbearers'' Club "Thomas Olde Heuvelt is a literary showman, proudly naming and displaying his influences before blending them into something unique and new.
