#HorrorForLibraries Giveaway 64: Echo by Thomas Olde Heuvelt

Today I have another hugely anticipated title coming in early 2022, a title I already gave a glowing review in Booklist. Giveaway below, but first, here is a refresher on the basic rules to enter:

1. You need to be affiliated with an American public library. My rationale behind that is that I will be encouraging you to read these books and share them with patrons. While many of them are advanced reader copies that you cannot add to your collections, if you get the chance to read them, my hope is that you will consider ordering a copy for your library and give away the ARC away as a prize or pass it on to a fellow staff member.
2. If you are interested in being included in any giveaway at any time, you must email me at zombiegrl75 [at] gmail [dot] com with the subject line "#HorrorForLibraries." In the body of the email all you have to say is that you want to be entered and the name of your library.
3. Each entry will be considered for EVERY giveaway. Meaning you enter once, and you are entered until you win. I will randomly draw a winner on Fridays sometime after 5pm central. But only entries received by 5pm each week will be considered for that  week. I use Random.org and have a member of my family witness the "draw"based off your number in the Google Sheet.
4. If you win, you are ineligible to win again for 4 weeks; you will have to re-enter after that time to be considered [I have a list of who has won, when, and what title]. However, if you do not win, you carry over into the next week. There is NO NEED to reenter.

After the HUGE success of Hex, Dutch Horror Author Olde Heuvelt is back with an EPIC novel fueled by intense and sustained terror. Here is an except from my post on the general blog 

Echo by Thomas Olde Heuvelt

Dutch Horror master Olde Heuvelt returns with an epic tale of madness that, while less focused than Hex, is just as frightening. Nick and Sam are young, handsome men, blissfully in love, until Nick is horribly disfigured in a climbing accident on Le Maudit, an Alpine mountain that even the locals won’t climb. From the moment Nick is rescued, it is clear that he has brought something dark back with him, a force whose power is spilling out of his wrecked face and infecting others, with deadly consequences. Opening with a masterfully terrifying scene, the stage is set for a high anxiety, cinematic tale, and Olde Heuvelt delivers with an intimate and disorienting storytelling style, told by alternating Sam’s notes as he grapples with demons from his past and present with Nick’s diary entries and a confession, parsed out in five sections. The plot may be a slow burn, but the horror is immersive and the fear paralyzing, as readers experience mortal danger, freezing cold, and debilitating vertigo along with the characters. Clearly reminiscent of classic King tomes, but also for fans of more recent coming-of-age Horror like The Bright Lands by Fram or highly suspenseful stories with a strong sense of place like Road of Bones by Golden.

Three words that describe this book: slow burn, terrifying, immersive
