Nice Reviews for Ash Falls

Warren Read’s Ash Falls received several nice, pre-pub reviews, including Publishers Weekly, which called the book “a well-crafted, subtle psychological thriller,” Kirkus, which said the novel is “A moody, haunting foray into rural Americana in the mold of Daniel Woodrell and Christian Kiefer,” and Booklist, which added, “In this fine first novel…Read deftly portrays the competing feelings of suffocation and loneliness that can breed in small towns. Pair this with Daniel Woodrell’s marvelous Tomato Red.”
