Every boring cliché

This is the story of a dim-witted simpleton with a double digit IQ and his duplicitous, hypocritical, arrogant and incredibly needy wife who he sits and wags his tail at while she acts like the hen pecking harridan the writer seems to think a strong woman has to be.
The story is silly but by far the worst aspect of this recording is the voice of "Sasha" (Juliet Goglia). The grating california squeaking, the upward inflection at the end of EVERY sentence is enough to have you pulling your hair out.
There's far better books out there. Find them.

Actually scary

This is King, King if your not interested in 3 chapters of back story on every character. It's brilliant listened to it in 3 sittings.

My first review, so good thought I would.

Cosy, autumn read/listen!

So glad I spent a credit on this! Throughly enjoyed this one. Will definitely listen again. Loved both narrators, I don't like multiple narrators normally, but this was perfect. Be careful what you buy! Haha

Enjoyed it overall

I have read the other reviews and think they may reflect the readers' own biases, which made me wonder what I should write to avoid the same issue.
I enjoyed this book and would go so far as to say I looked forward to driving to work so I could continue the story. I liked the voice of Sasha. As for her character within the story, I really enjoyed the positivity she brought. She was also needed to counter Harry's PTSD and resulting aggression as a trained marine living back in civvy street. The voice of Harry was a little gruff to begin with, but I became used to it and thought he was good in the end. If I had one criticism, the book could have done some done with some editing, as it did become repetitive at times, especially in relation to the final chapters. I especially liked the characterisation of Dan and Lucy. So, in summary, I would recommend this book. It is different, and it kept me entertained to the end.

Good but had some problems

I really liked the unique story but was struggling with some of the Harry chapters. I didn't see the need to go so much into his army history or describing the different weapons and equipment he was using. Those pages could have been used to bring more details into the main story. Also I didn't like the constant aggressive tone of the male reader. I guess it was supposed to highlight the aggressive side of Harry. Also there were some strange plot holes and inconsistencies, but those I could manage.

Just spent the entire time annoyed at Harry

Harry’s character was annoying and self indulgent and I found him difficult to relate to

A load of rubbish really

A good performance which doesn’t compensate for an overblown and predictable story. Whether you like folk horror or not, don’t waste your time on this tosh.
