Harwood has resigned himself to slowly picking up the pieces of his life.

The Donnybrook is a three-day bare-knuckle tournament held on a thousand-acre plot out in the sticks of southern Indiana. Twenty fighters. One wire-fence ring. Fight until only one man is left standing while a rowdy festival of onlookers - drunk and high on whatever’s on offer - bet on the fighters. Jarhead is a desperate man who’d do just about anything to feed his children. He’s also the toughest fighter in southeastern Kentucky, and he’s convinced that his ticket to a better life is one last fight with a cash prize so big it’ll solve all his problems.

One Christmas Eve in a small hollow in Boone County, West Virginia, struggling songwriter Jesse Walker witnesses a strange spectacle: seven devilish figures chasing a man in a red suit toward a sleigh and eight reindeer. When the reindeer leap skyward, taking the sleigh, devil men, and Santa into the clouds, screams follow. Moments later, a large sack plummets back to earth, a magical sack that thrusts the down-on-his-luck singer into the clutches of the terrifying Yule Lord, Krampus.

STOP. You should not have touched this flyer with your bare hands. NO, don't put it down. It's too late. They're watching you. My name is David Wong. My best friend is John. Those names are fake. You might want to change yours. You may not want to know about the things you'll read on these pages, about the sauce, about Korrok, about the invasion, and the future. But it's too late. You touched the book. You're in the game. You're under the eye. The only defense is knowledge. You need to read this book, to the end. Even the part with the bratwurst. Why?

A literary icon sometimes seen as a bridge between the Beat Generation and the hippies, Ken Kesey scored an unexpected hit with his first novel, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. His successful follow-up, Sometimes a Great Notion, was also transformed into a major motion picture, directed by and starring Paul Newman. Here, Oregon’s Stamper family does what it can to survive a bitter strike dividing their tiny logging community. And as tensions rise, delicate family bonds begin to fray and unravel.

WOW!!! Move over Penn Cage!
I don't remember how I ended up purchasing this novella but boy, am i glad i did!
If you are a fan of the Penn Cage Series by Greg Iles, you are going to love these books. This is book 0.5 of a 3 book series (so far). Wow! Are they terrific! Now, as soon as I finished this one, I immediately got the next two from my library. (sorry Audible)
Since I can't do a review for the other two on Audible, i am going to do a brief mention on this review, Hopefully Audible will allow it.
I listened to all three of these in 2 1/2 days. Back to back.
While this one is suppose to be an introduction to the series (?) It was actually written after the first one and before the third. So don't let that confuse you. Listen to them in the order intended.
The Broken King
Bull Mountain
Like Lions
Warning, these are a bit graphic. Extreme violence. But if you have read the Penn Cage books, you won't have a problem.
Read these books!! So good. I hope and pray there will be more. At least one more. The last one ended perfectly so another one would be wonderful!
Narrator: Brian Troxell is absolutely perfect for these books!
