Snow Beast
A group of friends rent an isolated lodge for a short holiday in a mountainous region of Cumbria during one of the heaviest snowfalls on record. Unbeknown to them a ferocious beast, a thing of myth, legend and folklore, more colossal than any primate known to man, roams the surrounding hills; its craving for human flesh growing more fervent with each kill. The serenity of the friends’ accommodation is shattered by the arrival of a vicious gang of rogue bikers who, having just pulled off a daring bank robbery during which two innocent bystanders were killed, descend upon the holidaymakers desperate for somewhere remote to use as a hideout from the police. As the bikers terrorise the group inside the lodge, both parties are unaware of the monstrous creature lurking just beyond the shadows outside, waiting with razor-sharp claws and teeth for its next victim. Until it is too late!

A fairly good creature feature.
The British Isles have a long history of sightings of sasquatch like beast men. The usual bunch of young adults decide to take a winter vacation up in the snow. They meet up with a biker gang, the locals, and the snow beast. There's sex, blood, and amazingly bad decisions.
Not bad. Very much like something Guy N. Smith would write.

Another "no go" for me. The characters all spent more time having or talking about sex and their relationships than the Snow Beast. Disappointing.

Disappointment
Not what I expected when reading. Too much violence and sex! Very little about the Snow Beast. Disappointing read 🙁

Bigfoot rampages!
I love a good Bigfoot story like this. The Beast as it thinks of itself (yes, we get it’s POV) shows up periodically to decimate the cast of biker gang members, and vacationing young adults.
While the grammar and phrasing can be a bit off putting at times, the story was fun and there’s plenty of drama on the human side of things. I’ll be checking out more of the author’s works.

A really great book!
So, I started reading this book thinking that it would probably be another poorly written novel about Bigfoot. I was wrong! It was a fantastic story with great characters and I loved the way the beast's thoughts and feelings were told. I want more books from this author!

Good
It was a well written story but there were parts that I didn't care for that took away from the beast

Snow Beast Journey
This is an intense experience. Between the snow beast and a ruthless biker gang, there were no slow moments. Loved the ending, wasn't expecting that.

Just couldn't get into this at all
Was interested in this story as I quite like Bigfoot/Cryptid monster stories, and I live in Cumbria so am familiar with the Lake District.
I don't really know why but I just could not get into this book at all, it struck me almost like the literary equivalent of a B Movie, I guess maybe I'm just too old (50+) it may well appear to a younger reader?
