This is the second book I've read that is written by Dan Simmons. The previous one,The Terror had a similar documentary style storytelling that I really enjoyed. I love how both of these books blend history and fiction seamlessly, besides being excellent thrillers. While reading these books, you can see how cleverly Dan Simmons utilises the backdrop of the stories as the main driving force; as if it is a major character on its own. If you want to read a long thriller, rich with descriptive storytelling in a historical backdrop, The Abominable is highly recommended.
