Reviews
“Intended for fans of Michael Crichton, Robin Cook, and Stephen King. The action flows smoothly, and the ending is satisfyingly unpredictable. A good, chilling choice and a good supernatural mystery.” —VOYA on The Cold One
“Pike is a master of emotional impact. One cares about what happens to his people.” —Booklist
“The Season of Passage keeps you turning pages constantly until the last one and then wishing there were more. One of the most exciting books I have ever read.” —The Chicago Herald-Bloomingdale
“Pike is a master of creeping dread, relentlessly disturbing the reader with what Poe described as ‘terror of the soul.’ The Cold One is that rarest of horror novels, one that is visceral and intellectually stimulating at the same time.” —The Washington Post Book World
“[The Cold One is] a labyrinthine tale of betrayal, unearthly romance and demonic slaughter . . . . dramatic, intricate [and] hypnotic.” —Publishers Weekly
“I couldn’t put this book down. The best horror novel of the year.” —Rocky Mountain News on The Season of Passage
“Pike’s latest outing into Anne Rice territory. A compelling and intellectually satisfying read.” —Rapport on The Cold One
“Pike’s prose, haunting and ethereal, wriggles its way into the psyche. Worthy of Anne Rice . . . the writing is lyrical and voluptuous. This book is one of the best I’ve ever read.” —VOYA on The Season of Passage
“The book you hate to put down, the book you really don’t want to end–that’s The Cold One. A fast-paced, wild ride of love and hate, life and death. Pike’s talent is evident throughout this work.” —Greeley Tribune, (Colorado)
