'About this title' may belong to another edition of this title. What gives the book its heart is a return of sorts of those taken away 12 years earlier, offering brief, bittersweet reunions. The so-called ice men are tucked off-screen for most of the book, but their eventual revealing is terrifically unsettling. Among them are former young lovers, now embittered spouses a young man still shaken by the kid brother he lost and a full-time loser ready to risk everything during a snowstorm heist. Our cast of characters is older now and more troubled, especially when another mythic-level tempest begins churning their way. The small New England town of Coventry had weathered a thousand blizzards. Wait, did someone just say “monster?” Twelve years after that whiteout, during which more than a dozen people vanished, survivors remain haunted by the “terrible, slender, icy figures” they saw stealing their loved ones. In Christopher Golden's first horror novel in more than a decadea work reminiscent of early Stephen King Snowblind updates the ghost story for the modern age. With Mike Mignola, he is the co-creator of the Outerverse comic book universe, including such series as Baltimore, Joe Golem: Occult Detective, and Lady Baltimore. Golden gets things off to an atmospheric start and in the process ably delineates a cast of characters we’ll follow through a narrative split between two storms, twelve years apart. Horror fiction has introduced us to evil mists and evil fogs, so why not evil snow? Golden’s latest storms in with a breathless 50-page intro in which we meet the town of Coventry, New Hampshire, as its residents batten down the hatches against a monster blizzard. CHRISTOPHER GOLDEN is the New York Times bestselling, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of such novels as Road of Bones, Ararat, Snowblind, Of Saints and Shadows, and Red Hands. Written by: James Keen Everyone knows how this is gonna end ‘Snowblind’.
