Author Christopher Golden discusses his new novel, 'Ararat.'

Publishers Weekly gave 'Ararat' a starred review, noting, "The whole is more than the sum of its parts in this exceptional supernatural thriller from bestseller Golden ('Dead Ringers'). An avalanche on Turkey’s legendary Mount Ararat uncovers a cave that may contain the remnants of Noah’s Ark....While the contours of the story line will be familiar to genre fans, Golden makes them feel fresh through solid prose, effective characterizations, and a willingness not to pull any plot punches."

Then, Publishers Weekly editorial director Jim Milliot looks ahead to Independent Bookstore Day.
