Terror Peak (2022)
Edward J McFadden III
"Terror Peak by Edward J. McFadden III is an adrenaline junkie's read-come-true. From the opening pages till the climactic conclusion, the pages turn quickly as the story moves deep into the Rocky Mountains toward the uppermost reaches of Abominable Peak, where we are treated to a heavily and accurately researched story of extreme snowboarding. McFadden expertly turns the vastness of snow-covered mountains into a claustrophobic nightmare that is filled with bone-chilling scenes and a cryptid threat that looms on every page. Terror Peak is a beautifully written adventure-slash-horror novel with a main character readers will care about from start to finish, a great read for those who love their fiction with a pulse that pounds!"
