"Matt Drabble is a name that will one day be as widely recognized as Stephen King & Dean Koontz" - READERS FAVORITE

Gated is a UK & US Horror Chart Top 10 best seller, the 2015 Readers Favorite Gold Medal Winner for Horror Fiction & the 2014 Full Moon Awards Horror Book of the year.

Michael and Emily are a happy and contented English couple, a writer and a school teacher. Their lives are complete when Emily falls pregnant, however their dreams are shattered one cold winter night by a car accident that robs them of their happiness.

To overcome their loss they up stick and move to Eden Gardens, a US gated community that offers "Heaven on Earth and Twice as Nice".

The people are warm and friendly and welcome them with open arms. The town is a beautiful throwback to a bygone age, where the sun always shines and the sky's always blue.

As they settle into their new perfect lives, the circle is complete when Emily falls pregnant. The town is perfect, the weather is perfect and their lives are perfect.

But are the stares from their neighbours a little too intense, is the town a little too interested in their happy news, and is Eden all that it seems.

They are about to find out that paradise comes at a cost, and when you sign a lease, you should always check the fine print.

Believe the Hype

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 5 luglio 2023

Acquisto verificato

Matt Drabble has been compared in reviews to Stephen King and Dean Koontz; high praise indeed. Here’s one instance where the hype is accurate – this was a fantastic horror novel with great characters, an interesting plot and a style of writing that kept me turning pages far into the night. I suppose the ultimate praise is to say that I bought the next two books in the series immediately after finishing this one and started reading immediately.

Good book, if a bit weird in places

Recensito nel Regno Unito il 30 dicembre 2017

Acquisto verificato

I got this book as a free download for the Kindle, although I would have happily paid for it. I'd never heard of the author before, but I liked the sound of the book, and well, a free book is always a good thing!

The book centres around the idealistic town of Eden, who's motto is 'Heaven on Earth and twice as nice.' The town is isolated, somewhere in America, and the exact location is never revealed, just that it is a gated community, where outsiders are unwelcome, and everyone who lives in the town are there for some purpose, and the town all runs through the town manager, Caspar Christian. The sun always shines, there is no crime and everyone is friendly and welcoming. The town seems perfect, there are even no pesky insects to spoil the warm evenings. It all seems so perfect, too perfect...

Michael and Emily Torrance moves to this idyll after a personal tragedy in England, and their sorrow is soon replaced by joy at their new surroundings. That is until weird things happen, Michael loses an afternoon, and people aren't quite what they seem. Michael, being a horror writer by trade, wonders if this is just his overworked imagination and Emily is loath to spoil their joy, but when people disappear and some things appear too good to be true, as a couple, they begin to wonder who they can really trust... And the town's woodland festival, which everyone seems so excited about takes an unusual turn

The book isn't realistic, but it's a good escape for a few hours. Admittedly, I read it one evening when I had bad insomnia, and read the book in one sitting. The book has some strange turns, and some of the plot-lines can be hard to follow, but I thought it had a good ending, and everything seemed to tie in well. The characters were 3 dimensional, and while some of the plot lines were a bit beyond the bizarre, I enjoyed the book. It's easy to read, and each page left me wanting to read on, although the explanations aren't the most realistic, it's nice to lose yourself in a fantasy world for a few hours...

Netter Thriller, leider einige Fehler

Recensito in Germania il 13 febbraio 2014

Acquisto verificato

Von der Idee und der Umsetzung her ist dieses Buch wirklich nett zu lesen. Es ist nicht wirklich etwas Neues, aber etwas komplett Neues zu erfinden, ist auch nicht so leicht.
Dem Autor scheint Stephen King sehr zu gefallen, er bezieht sich nicht nur mehrmals auf den Autor, sondern verwendet auch Namen aus bekannten Büchern von King. Aber das finde ich gar nicht mal schlimm. Man könnte es als eine Hommage ansehen.
Das Buch lässt sich sehr gut lesen und man möchte auch bald wissen, wie es weiter geht, ob die Hauptcharaktere es schaffen, usw. Die Charaktere sind gut ausgearbeitet, man kann sich gut in sie hinein versetzen, auch wenn meine Alarmgglocken schon viel eher angingen - aber hey, mir war ja auch bewusst, dass ich ein Buch lese.
Leider braucht dieses Buch (immer noch) eine ernsthafte Überarbeitung, es fehlen diverse Wörter und auch Satzzeichen, was für Leser sehr irritierend sein kann. Letztlich geht man dazu über, die fehlenden Wörter einfach selbst in die Sätze zu setzen, damit sie einen Sinn ergeben. Glücklicherweise gab es keine ärgerlichen Schreibfehler, so dass sich das Buch gut lesen lässt.
Alles in Allem habe ich mich gut unterhalten gefühlt. Besonders schön fand ich den Einblick in die Geschichte von Eden, da hätte ich gerne auch noch ein paar mehr gehabt.

WORTHY READ

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 1 febbraio 2013

Acquisto verificato

I enjoyed reading Gated. Admittedly it took me about a week to finish, which for me says it got slow at times. The Kindle version could use some editing, but there were details that were repeated at least twice in some chapters that I do not believe had anything to do with the editing. Ex: the main male character is a horror author, and there is a kid in town who likes to read horror. The kid has read the main character's novel, but they name authors who the kid feels are better than the main character. So the kid meets the main character in person, is triggered to re-read his novel, and they name ALL the other authors again that he felt were better. For me that is unnecessary and it happens a bit throughout the book. Then there are in-depth details about things that are just not needed. It is like they were added in order to drag the story out or to meet a word quota or something. Okay I'll admit most of my problem with the novel is in the details, but otherwise I enjoyed.

Entertaining and absorbing

Recensito nel Regno Unito il 25 aprile 2014

Acquisto verificato

This was my first book from Matt Drabble and I found that the story was very interesting. A couple begin a new life in the town of Eden where everything is perfect, but of course things are never what they seem to be. I will not spoil the fun by disclosing more but there are many twists and turns to satisfy, as the author has a fertile imagination. Easy to read, this is a book that does hold your interest throughout, as the story unravels towards the climax. I will definitely be reading more books from this author as I liked his style and stoyline.
