Will have you hooked in no time
Weird but gripping drama
A fun drama that definitely has a Stephen King story feel to it, being genuinely strange. It has that Stand by me vibe as a group of young friends in the 80's encounter Stranger Things.

Loved every page
This book had me up all night. It was an easy read but yet still gripping. I was immediately connected with one of the MC's (being a mother myself). If all books were this good, i wouldnt have a day job.

Volume 2 of Erased immediately pulled me right back into the story. It's definitely gripping, considering it's a teen manga revolving around elementary school children, for the most part. I keep thinking that I know what will happen, but then some little detail changes the course of the story.

"Ravi Howard is a good friend, and a master at creating fictionalized accounts based on true experiences. This is his newest work, published just last year in 2015, and it's just as gripping as his first book. This time, Ravi focuses on Nat King Cole, another man I admire."

"It was a great year for crime thrillers, from Scorsese’s “The Irishman” to Marco Bellochio’s “The Traitor”, but what if the best one actually came from Iran? As a lifelong fan of Iranian Cinema, this one opened up a whole new world of possibility. Gripping, tense, visceral and profound."

Papers Please
Papers Please
2013 | Action/Adventure
t’s bleak, oppressive, perfectly paced and utterly gripping. But with its downtrodden lo-fi visuals and peculiar focus on complicated paperwork, it’s not going to be a game for everyone.
Critic- Tom Hoggins
Original Score: 4.5 out of 5
