Praise
Praise for Cold Earth
“I’m not one for thrillers . . but Cold Earth had too many good ingredients to pass up . . . Moss draws six unforgettable individuals, through their interactions with fellow archeologists and through letters home to their loved ones. Bugs in amber, carbon in ice—a reader watches their existence constrict to survival.” —Los Angeles Times
“In stripped–down prose that never reveals too much, first–novelist Moss conjures an increasingly creepy atmosphere, the isolation and stark beauty of the Greenland coast, and the rigors of survival in a harsh environment.” —Booklist
Praise for the U.K. edition of Cold Earth
“It is almost perfect . . . This is an unusually promising first novel.” —Times Literary Supplement (London)
“Few first novels are as topical as this . . . There is a lot to enjoy.” —Financial Times (London)
“Moss’s stark writing delivers stinging splashes of cold water. Every element is distilled for purity of purpose.” —The Times (London)
“A heart–tingling story.” —Metro (London)
“One of the most powerful and gripping debut novels I have ever read.” —Scarlett Thomas, author of The End of Mr. Y
“An astounding piece of imaginative fiction taking the reader to the ends of the earth.” —Bookseller (London)
