Publisher's summary

Gabriel Reid has led a life of good luck. From a loving family, well educated, and now quite wealthy, he holds an important office in a prominent Atlanta construction company. But good fortune doesn't always last. Isaiah Battle arrives from the slums of Chicago, where he grew up in poverty, surviving by his wits and a hidden inner power. Isaiah is Gabriel's half-brother, and now he wants to claim the life he believes is rightfully his. The stage is set for an epic battle between brothers: a battle that will leave only one man standing.

Gold Pen winner Brandon Massey wrote the frightening novel Dark Corner and edited the collection of horror and suspense by black authors Dark Dreams. With The Other Brother, he presents a thriller of terrifying proportions.

A Day Out of My Life

The story is too incredible. All the way to the unbearable ending. The best part of the book was the reader, but he made the female voices as that of a gay male affect or stereotypical black female which was offensive. Pay extra and hire a female reader too next time.

What I disliked was not having individual chapters. To confusing if you lost your place

Great listen

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes! I wanted to know what was going to happen next. It was a shocker.

Gets distracted

This book goes off track a few times. The story line goes into much detail about the surroundings. It is like a hard to hollow movie. Jumps back and forth a lot.

Lots of crazy twists

This book was something else. I did enjoy it. I didn't really read what it was about before I started listening so I had no idea what to expect and was not really sure where it was going at first. It kept my attention once it started all making sense.

The reader though....irked me so bad. The swallowing and long swallowing between sentences at times was very annoying and the breathing. I couldn't ignore it. Never had this in any other book I've listened to.

Suspenseful

This audio book is worth the purchase. The premise of the book is basic, but there are a few surprises which will keep the listener on edge. I found it enjoyable, and the author was a good writer. The narrator did a good job flowing between characters.

Great Storyline

Kept me wondering till (almost) the last read. Really enjoyed listening to the story as I am enthralled by the “super”-natural occurrences of/of our lives that we are wont to minimize. I would highly recommend to open- minded individuals.
