FREEZE—horror, suspense, and monsters
Well, it took a couple of months longer than I expected and ended up being almost twice as long as I intended, but Freeze is finally here.
About the book: A raging snowstorm has stranded Tess and Warren in their mountain home with no power and little heat. When an accident leaves Tess coughing up pools of blood, Warren has no choice but to brave the storm in search for help. He's afraid he'll be too late. But what he should be afraid of are the creatures slinking through the blizzard and watching his every move. What they're saying: "No one can deny that this is an excellent monster book, that’s for sure." —Candy's Raves The book is DRM-free everywhere. I hope you'll check it out and come back to let me know what you think. Thanks for reading! Dan Last edited by djpyle; 06-16-2011 at 06:00 PM. |

Great read! 5 stars!
Posted a bit of a terrible review (because I suck at writing them) over at goodreads, as well as B&N.com http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/166294238 |

Thanks, Joe!
I'm glad you liked it, and I really appreciate the review. It's not terrible at all. |

Added this one to my wish list (love the cover!) and bought Down the Drain. Will review both when I finish reading them!

Good job, Dan - looking forward to reading Freeze! By the way, what's the UK price (as I may give a shout out to friends across the pond). Did you go 1.49?

![]() Thanks! The UK price is £1.99, and I would sincerely appreciate a shout out. For whatever reason, my work hasn't gained much traction in the UK. |

Excellent story. I'm a pretty seasoned horror fan and not much gets to me but it was creepy as hell. I'll post a review when I have more time.
I also have Dismember but haven't gotten to it yet (massive backlog). I have read the sample though and I know it will be right up my alley. |

This review is a bit old, but it's one of my favorites and I realized I never shared it here.
Journal of Always gives Freeze five stars. "Freeze is a gem of a short novel that will leave you panting by the end. It’s the perfect creature feature, hitting all the right emotional notes, making you care, cringe, and rattle your teeth at the same time. And once you finish, you’ll never be able to hear a scratch at your window on a cold winter night and pass it off as nothing again." You can read the full review here. I hope everyone is enjoying the last few days of summer. Happy reading! |
