Dr Sadist

If you like gruesome sadistic characters, this book is for you. Bradley Anderson fits that bill perfectly. Jon Athan is a master of his craft. I really enjoy his books. Keeps you on your toes and listening to the end wondering what would happen next. Harry Roger Williams did a good job with the narration. I received this free copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Only for the right audience... and I loved it!!

Since discovering this author, I've been madly buying up all that I can!!! I'm pretty jaded, and love revenge/torture themed books. The bloodier the better!

Why have I been sleeping on this series! I shouldn't have been. Athan has a way of making the reader feel for a character, even one named DR Sadist. So many feels

Killing is my business

I was expecting this story to be vile and soul crushing but I didn’t expect myself to enjoy it. Instead of normal torture porn, which I dreaded, this was torture porn with character. Like if you took death wish and smashed it with hostel. It is surprisingly good. The graphic displays of violence are pretty standard. It’s not paragraphs of grotesque torture but enough to make it pretty vile and extreme. Surprisingly had a good character interaction with “doc” and the people he cared about. The descriptions were rather vivid and helped complete the characters profile. The other characters though were not that well flesh out and you couldn’t really latch on to any of the others. The guy getting off the call was the closest thing to a human with a life outside of the industry. I think a bit more of a development with Benny’s relationship with doc could have been strengthened a bit more so that we could really feel that impact when Benny snitches on him. Was fearing Jon’s book but after reading this one pretty excited to check out more.

Not a bad extreme tale...

I was unaware that it was book 3 of 4 in the Snuff Network series and it ended with a pretty big cliffhanger that I was not expecting. I’m not sure how I felt about the 10 minute author commercial after the story either. I guess it’s no different than a book that has a ton of excerpts from other works, but since there was time remaining on the audiobook I figured it would get wrapped up somehow and then it was over and the commercial started. *End whiny reader rant.*

Anyway, the story wasn’t bad. It was a bit elementary in spots and predictable in others. It appeared to be extreme just for the sake of extreme and not really a story or character driven piece. (Not that I was really expecting that.) It was entertaining enough, however, and good for what it was. I really wanted to like it more. The narration was ok, as well, but may have been hurt by some of the choppy dialog and action. 2.5 Stars rounded up...
