Ararat

By: Christopher Golden

Narrated by: Robert Fass

Christopher Golden's Ararat is the heart-pounding tale of an adventure that goes wrong - on a biblical scale. When an earthquake reveals a secret cave hidden inside Mount Ararat in Turkey, a daring, newly engaged couple are determined to be the first ones inside...and what they discover will change everything.

The cave is actually a buried ancient ship that many quickly come to believe is Noah's Ark. When a team of scholars, archaeologists, and filmmakers make it inside the ark, they discover an elaborate coffin in its recesses. Inside the coffin, they find an ugly, misshapen cadaver - not the holy man they expected, but a hideous creature with horns. Shock and fear turn to horror when a massive blizzard blows in, trapping them thousands of meters up the side of a remote mountain. All they can do is pray for safety. But something wicked is listening to their prayers...and it wants to answer.

Decent story and narrator

It is a decent story although I would have wished for some more historical context or tie ins. The narrator was quite good EXCEPT that his voice acting of female characters was beyond atrocious.

👍👍👍

I got this book because it won the Bram Stoker award for best horror novel and it definitely did not let me down. I thought that the story was very clever and new. I really liked the narrator. I feel that he got all the voices down. What was cool is that it played out just like a movie. It wasn’t scary to be honest, but I’m not one who gets scared by books. It was a till very entertaining and super fun.

Excellent and talented narrator.

I enjoyed the book but wish it had a different ending. Too much like so many horror stories that can't seem to find an end.

fantastic

It's not often you get a book of this caliber and manage to land a narrator as skilled as thus one, but they managed to do it. I would recommend this novel.

a fun listen

A fun supernatural thriller packed with action and suspense. The audio was an excelleny addition.
