The Watchers: a spine-chilling Gothic horror novel
Autor A.M. Shineen Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 iun 2024
You can't see them. But they can see you.
This forest isn't charted on any map. Every car breaks down at its treeline. Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced into the dark woodland only to find a woman shouting, urging Mina to run to a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams.
Mina finds herself in a room with a wall of glass, and an electric light that activates at nightfall, when the Watchers come above ground. These creatures emerge to observe their captive humans and terrible things happen to anyone who doesn't reach the bunker in time.
Afraid and trapped among strangers, Mina is desperate for answers. Who are the Watchers, and why are they keeping the humans imprisoned, keen to watch their every move?
The nightmare is only just beginning. A spine-chilling debut horror adventure set in the remote and sinister forests of Ireland, from critically acclaimed Irish writer A.M. Shine.
'A dark, claustrophobic read' T. Kingfisher
'Readers get an intimate glimpse into the fraying edges of each character's psyches, the constant hunger, the paranoia, the loss of hope, and far worse... The Watchers will appeal to fans of Kealan Patrick Burke, Josh Malerman, and Scott Smith' A.E. Siraki, Booklist

Recenzii
A dark, claustrophobic read
Readers get an intimate glimpse into the fraying edges of each character's psyches, the constant hunger, the paranoia, the loss of hope, and far worse... A combination of supernatural and psychological horror, The Watchers will appeal to fans of Kealan Patrick Burke, Josh Malerman, and Scott Smith
This book has such atmosphere, and creepiness, and is an ideal read for the Halloween season, or any time you want some spookiness in your life!
A fantastic horror concept
Intense and thrilling, The Watchers is a great debut and solid addition to the survival horror sub-genre
A brisk, at times scary but thoroughly enjoyable read
A clever, highly original story beautifully written
The Watchers was a punch to the jugular... The author pulled out the rug from under me on more than one occasion. A must-read for the spooky season!
Shine writes of trust, betrayal and heartache with a skilful hand... will appeal to slow-burn horror fans, especially those who enjoyed films like Get Out, The Ritual and The Descent - nail-biting and creeping throughout
