Highway Gods

De: Edward Teach

Narrado por: Persephone Rose

Drive to live, ride to die. On the dusty highways of the near future, Mark and Caitlin go on a camping trip with several other college kids, though what starts as a vacation swiftly becomes a nightmare, as they are assaulted by members of the Royal Barons, a violent road gang. The Barons are living out the Grail Quest of Arthurian legend across the backroads and lonely highways of this land, looting and murdering everyone who crosses their path. Caitlin is kidnapped and at the mercy of their depraved leader, while Mark, left for dead, finds himself in the company of a gunslinging stranger hellbent on getting revenge from behind the wheel of her muscle car. The hunt is on. A high-octane tale of violence and horror on the merciless highway.

Short but Decent Horror Story

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I liked the story for the most part, but I thought the "Modern Grail Quest" thing was odd. I mean these bikers may have been on a quest for the Grail, but there was nothing noble, or knightly about them. I did enjoy the characters and the action. Persephone Rose does a good job but a couple of his voices were over-the-top. If you want a quick, violent horror audio book, it isn't a bad choice.

Very interesting story idea. Modern Grail Quest

What did you love best about Highway Gods?

The story idea was great and could have been extended with some more of the Arthurian legend and the knights of the round table thrown in. I would have loved to have read this. I really enjoyed the revenge aspect of the to hero characters.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

The plot moved swiftly along. Lots of action with a sprinkle of drama. Most characters were not fleshed out to their potential (IMO) but the ones that were, were great. I would have liked to learn more about the King and his knights.

What does Persephone Rose bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Persephone Rose brought about an exuberance and excitement for the story. His narration lent an urgency to the action. Gave a faster pace than would have been present in just reading the story yourself.

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

Yes, and I did. Straight through.

Any additional comments?

I was given a free copy of this audio book by the Narrator for a fair and honest review.

Bring on the Second installment

I loved this story. It had it all, excitement historical allusion and is jam packed with action. It is short enough to guarantee a sequel, one that I would gladly pay for. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Very good!

I'm pretty sure this story is going to give me nightmares - it was really scary! Well written with a high level of suspense - this was a really good audio for anyone who enjoys a thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat. Great narration as well!

Totally Bizarre Fun

If you're looking for 'classy horror' I'd look somewhere else. If you're looking for a gruesome, weird, otherworldly horror then you're in the right place! "Highway Gods" is certainly unlike anything I've read before. It's sort of like 'From Dusk till Dawn' in that it starts out clearly placed in the real world before it spins off into a crazy, otherworldly nightmare. I would recommend this story to listeners who like truly bizarre horror content.
