Ranked #2 among  BEST THRILLERS at Amazon.com

 

ELIXIR  has been translated into four languages. 

Named by the Editors of Barnes & Noble as: Top 5 Editor's Pick for Best Medical Thrillers for 2000, and Top 15 Best of 2000: Horror & Suspense.

ELIXIR was under film option for two years by director Ridley Scott (Gladiator & Black Hawk Down). Although Scott did not exercise the option, this story continues to stir interest in Hollywood.

 

 

"Dorian Gray enters the world of the biotech thriller in a fast-paced and well plotted debut novel that tells the tale of a geneticist who discovers a miracle drug that reverses the aging process... Braver... explores the moral and ethical dilemmas proposed by anti-aging technologies... with compelling plot twists and down-to-earth writing that bring his characters to life as ordinary yet complex people...an intoxicating read."

- Publishers Weekly

 

Goshgarian, the author of other smart cautionary tales, Rough Beast and The Stone Circle, has tapped into an American obsession and come up with a relentless page-turner that manages to deal with technical, scientific and medical material while still being entertaining, witty and very unnerving. Next time you look into the mirror and say `Out, out damn spot' when you see those signs of aging, read this book first."

- MetroWest & Community Newspapers

 

"Among the best of its genre ... an outstanding addition to all fiction collections."                                     

- Library Journal

 

". . . an intense spinetingler. . . Braver manages to capture the
agonizing ambivalence of immortality perfectly. . . a delightfully provocative read."

- b&n.com, Barnes & Noble Editors 

 

"Elixir delivers all the suspense and excitement you could ask for, and asks a hard question, too: What would you do if you found that you could live forever?"

- WILLIAM MARTIN, New York Times bestselling author of Cape Cod and Annapolis.
