I find the story fascinating and unlike anything else I've ever read. The Faeries are more folky than dark and brooding and definitely dangerous and it's hard to describe, but this book just has great vibes.

Its about love and Sufism. I love reading this book again and again.

Good literature is almost impossible to define. Partly it is the quality of silence between words. The quality of silence at the end of a line. COLD MOUNTAIN is a journey. Although there is a destination, it is written without a horizion. One can hear Henry James or Anais Nin saying... 'All stories of worth are about love.' Even within tragedy there is a kindling. An emotional gravity one cannot resist. Compelling narrative and characters become insperable from ourselves. Story has no end. It becomes other stories.

It's inspiring courageous strength and it's true story and also it's a book u don't want to put down once picked up

It's inspiring and survival and strength it's a great true to life book

I really enjoyed the psychology behind the characters and that it was based in France which I enjoyed as it mentally took me away from my surroundings and I could fully emerse myself into reading the book.

Just not read anything like this or this good! So fast paced and absorbing.

It’s just a great story with a fabulous meaning All of her books are great

Frank Pollard awakens in an alley, knowing nothing but his name and that he is in danger. Over the next few days he develops a fear of sleep because when he wakes he finds blood on his hands and bizarre and terrifying objects in his pockets. Distraught and desperate, Frank begs husband-and wife detective team Bobby and Julie Dakota to get to the bottom of his mysterious, amnesiac fugues. It seems a simple job, but they are drawn into ever-darkening realms where they encounter the nightmare, hate-filled figure stalking Frank. And their lives are threatened, as is that of Julie's gentle, Down's-syndrome brother, Thomas. To Thomas, death is the 'bad place' from which there is no return. But as each of them ultimately learns, there are equally bad places in the world of the living, places so steeped in evil that, in contrast,Death seems to be almost a relief

Gothic and extremely dark, a great read for anyone who loves vampires and an eerie atmosphere

A beautifully written story about friendship.

It’s completely different from the film and I never took my eyes off it, so detailed and amazing
