The Ritual

undefined

Review ------ This novel grabs from the very first page, refuses to be laid aside, and carries the hess reader, exhausted and wrung out, to the very last sentence. (The Guardian) Often horror loses its power when the evil is given a face; in this case it only gets more disturbing. (The Sunday Times) With The Ritual Nevill has crafted some of the tensest iest horror this reviewer has read for years. (SFX) The Ritual by Adam Nevill is a mind-twisting journey into the dark backwoods of terror. Deeply disturbing and absolutely riveting. (Jonathan Maberry, New York Times Bestselling author of Dead of Night and The King of Plagues) Nevill makes the natural world deeply menacing, using the power of suggestion rather than explicit images to create a growing claustrophobic feeling as the difficult journey to return to some semblance of civilization embeds the quartet only further in the grasp of primal evil. (Publishers Weekly) If you want something to make you ed of going into the deep, dark woods then I would highly recommend you pick up The Ritual. The Gruffalo it ain’t! (Geek Syndicate) It has been over a week now since I finished this book and it has really stayed with me and I find myself thinking about it on numerous occasions, and this is another very good sign. (Fantasy Book Review) The Ritual didn’t just stop at sending a shiver down my spine, carrying on past that to leave me feeling all unsettled and resolved to stay away from large unexplored woods. A horror novel that leaves you feeling melancholy and thoughtful (as well as just plain ed); Neville is rapidly cementing his position as an author worth watching. (Graeme's Fantasy Book Review) The Ritual, is now one of my all time favourite books, for me personally this is a powerful book that ticks every box in horror writing. (Gingernuts of Horror) Book Description ---------------- In the forests of Scandinavia, an ancient presence starts its nightmare hunt once again . . .
