I have to admit, after I read the 'synopsis' and made a purchase, this isn't the book I was expecting, but it was actually a much BETTER read than I had anticipated. There's a very real sense of imprisonment, desperation and claustrophobia in this tale. I can't really say too much without giving things away but I was really taken along on the ride (and not unsurprised by the actions/re-actions of some of the protagonists, given the situation they find themselves in). I wasn't overly keen on the ending though, but it didn't 'ruin' the book for me.Thawed redux - I got the new copy with the addition of an epilogue direct from the author (for which, many thanks). The epilogue adds to the tale in that it allows us to say a 'proper goodbye' to some of the actors. It doesn't detract from the preceding events but gives us a little more denouement than the original version. I think it wraps everything up a lot more neatly too - without removing any of the impact of the story. I did try and write a separate review but alas, the gods of Amazon don't allow more than one review per book, so I hope this addition works as an update.
