The Cold One

Rating:
Summary: super! super! super!
Review: It's so hard to put Christopher Pike's books down. He is an incredible storyteller. I just love how he weaves Hindu myths, mystery, and horror into one superbly palatable plot. I can't wait till "The Seedling" comes out!

Summary: Only for someone desperate for a horror fix.
Review: Starts out okay, nothing literary, but falls prey to the horrible ending...at points the action and descriptions are so comical, a person might conjure Beavis and Butthead-style zombies in her mind...still entertaining, as many horror fans will read or watch almost anything to witness the newest, most original fictional method of killing.

Rating:
Summary: A truly chilling story
Review: The classic plot of good vs. evil is personified in Pike's more adult books. This is not one of your favorite Last Vampire stories. Pike takes a mixture of satan and human qualities and creates a creature so purely evil we are left wondering if it can ever be destroyed.

Summary: "Dramatic,unearthly romantic,Purely horror"
Review: The Cold One was utterly terrifing and dark. Purely horrifing, very good, definantly a five star book. Very unexpected violent and wrenching not to mention horrifing actions. Many peoples lifes were linked to the cold one, their fate in the cold ones hand, Peter James was definatly the most inportant to it, he was either going to complete it or destroy it. Something Edger Allen Poe would decribe as "terror of the soul." It's been one of the best horror books I have read so far from Christopher Pike. It catches you up in the prologue and never lets you down, never a boring moment at all. Pike goes into great details at times, but still keeps his mysterious touch through the whole book. Now I have to get, "The Cold One 2: The Seedling, to see what happens to Rak, Julies child and the master!

Summary: So super... in search of sequel
Review: This book is amazing. I have read it and reread it many times. All the twists and turns, the plot line is spectacular. I have never read such a great book before. Absolutely my favorite, even compared to all the Harry Potter books. I have been searching and searching for the longest time for the sequel, The Cold One II: The Seedling. Does any one know about this? Where can i find it... i am so desperate! I really really want to know what else happens.. i hate being left out, when you know there is more. If anyone can help... please email me!

Summary: !WOW!
Review: This book is great. The main characters were greatly developed,and so was the plot. The ending was to put it shortly peacefull. I know that sounds weird but when you read it you will be greatly surprised how calm the ending is. This book is good for anyone over the age of say 14. Still the book is one of Pike's adult books so don't think that you will be reading a tame kiddy booke because it is very far from it. Although some of his teen books may help people understand this book better. Like Spellbound, Monster, and The Hollow Skull sort of explain alot of the points in the books.
