Resumen del Editor

In a chilling blend of folk horror and twisting suspense, this modern masterpiece depicts isolation and dread within a small island community.

There's something in the water...

On the edge of the Northern Atlantic lies a remote island. The islanders are an outwardly harmonious community—but all have their own secrets, some much darker than others. And when a strange disorder begins to infect them all, those secrets come to light.

Ferry service fails and contact with the mainland is lost. Rumors begin to swirl as a temporary inconvenience grows into nightmarish ordeal. The fabric of the once tight-knit island is unnervingly torn apart—and whatever the cause, the question soon stops being how or why it happened, but who, if anyone, will survive.

Major let-down

Not what I had hoped for a much-awaited second novel. A Boy and His Dog is one of my favorite books of all time, and I struggled to finish this.

Disappointing

After A Boy and His Dog at the End of the World I expected more than a supernatural horror tale. This novel is Maeve Binchy’s version of Night of the Living Dead.

Started Well

I am not a fan of the horror genre. I'm not sure why I purchased this story.

The first third was wonderful, weaving between modern and ancient people and their respective stories. However, since horror isn't my favorite genre, I was less enthusiastic about the rest of the tale.

Fabulous!!

Loved this book!! Couldn’t put it down!! I highly recommend this great story. You won’t regret it!

Creepy story

I agree with other reviews who said it was too long and has some unimaginative aspects of the story. After all, most horror /supernatural stories have characters who do stupid things. That said, I did enjoy the atmosphere and did get some chills from it. Siobhan Redmond's reading was well done.

loved it

I loved the introduction, I really felt like I got to know the characters. When the action began it was creepy and unique. The narrator was amazing as well. My only disappointment was that there were a couple of chapters near the end that were cut off. I don't know how much was removed, but it was a bit distracting. Otherwise, great book.

C.A. Fletcher blows me away again

this story was wild and gripping, the writing was fantastic, and the narrator was amazing! definitely recommend anything by c.a. Fletcher

Indifferent

After reading A Boy and His Dog at the End Of The World, I was very excited to give this a listen. the narrator was excellent! although there were distinct parts where you could hear her talking around a lozenge or something, but otherwise loved her narration.

The characters were pretty developed for the most part.

The story was unique and creative for sure, and I think the setting on the island and the island itself certainly took home the bragging rights.

The only problem is... I don't know if I cared about this book. which means I definitely didn't hate it, but I definitely didn't love it. I actually came to the reviews to look for reasons why I should love it, hoping there was something that somebody may have caught that I didn't.

I don't feel as though I wasted a credit, but if I had known I'd have this feeling prior to listening to it, I maybe would have reallocated it to a different book

wow

so cool. I hope to hear the longer version which is not currently available in my location.
