False Summit

Thank you to NetGalley, Black Rose Writing, & to Cam Torrens for this ARC of False Summit: The Truth is Hard to Face...! This is an absolutely amazing thriller! If you want a book that has you hooked from chapter one, I seriously recommend reading False Summit. I literally could not put this book down.

False Summit is the second Tyler Zahn novel. I definitely believe you can read this one as a stand alone, but be prepared to read the first one afterward anyway because you'll be left desperate for more of Torrens' work. I for one cannot wait for a third book!

The characters are so well-written! Especially Tyler Zahn, who is just such a good person trying to do good even though he has his own struggles, and I loved every step he took trying to figure out what happened to his missing friend Kristee. Just such a compelling character. But that's true for mostly everyone in this book, they all feel like they could be people you know because they simply feel real. Honestly, I think that makes the stakes feel even greater.

False Summit is the kind of book that will remind you why you love thrillers. The story is a gripping read, and you'll be turning the pages needing to know what will happen next the whole time!

A heartfelt thank you to NetGalley, Black Rose Writing, and Cam Torrens for gifting me an ARC of "False Summit: The Truth is Hard to Face...". This thriller is nothing short of spellbinding! From the very first chapter, "False Summit" grips your attention, making it nearly impossible to set aside.

Although this is the second installment featuring Tyler Zahn, it stands strong on its own. That being said, once you delve into this narrative, you'll undoubtedly be drawn to the first book simply because of the allure of Torrens' storytelling. I'm eagerly awaiting the next addition!

The character development is exemplary. Tyler Zahn stands out; he's a genuine individual striving to do right by everyone, despite grappling with personal dilemmas. His journey to uncover the truth about his vanished friend, Kristee, is both touching and captivating. Indeed, most characters in "False Summit" resonate with authenticity, making them feel eerily familiar, and thus raising the stakes even higher.

In essence, "False Summit" reignites the passion for thrillers. Engrossing from start to finish, you'll find yourself rapidly flipping through the pages, hungry to uncover the next twist and turn.

Another great Tyler Zahn book! Beautiful but dangerous setting, a gripping storyline full of twists and turns, and great characters made for a real page turner. I can't wait for the next one.
