By: Kim Newman

Narrated by: Julie Maisey

In the tiny English village of Alder, dreams and nightmares are beginning to come true. Creatures from local legend, science fiction and the dark side of the human mind prowl the town. Paul, a young academic composing a thesis about the end of the world, and his girlfriend Hazel, a potter, have come to Alder for the summer. Their idea of a rural retreat gradually sours as the laws of nature begin to break down around them. Paul and Hazel are soon drawn into a vortex of fear as violent chaos engulfs the community and the village prepares to reap a harvest of horror.

blah blah blah yada yada yada Narrator horrible

Couldn't get through the first chapter. This might have been more tolerable with a different narrator. I don't care for this one at all. DRY slow monotone. Geez. She might be good with a romantic novel but now this genre. The story may be good but I just cannot get past the narrator!
