From Nick Antosca, creator of the Syfy Channel's Channel Zero.

In the morning, Bram finds the bones of a murdered child. At noon, the murdered child begs for his help. And by nightfall, they have killed a man together and set off into the afterlife, where nothing is what it was, and death is only the beginning of punishment. An eerie story about the nature of death and the self, Midnight Picnic inhabits an American landscape made strange and unfamiliar.

An otherworldly adventure story

This book reminds me of a world like The Robin Williams film What Dreams May Come in the way it portrays the afterlife as a construct where we continue to live, but in a very different way, with rules that are always just a little bit out of reach.

The way the real world is thrust into the reader with a brief and detailed love scene is juxtaposed with the surreal and nebulous other world where anything might happen, and there's no telling if it will be good or bad.

Production quality is excellent, and the performer is exemplary.

Wow

What a wild story. Creepy, strange, and trippy. I thoroughly enjoyed it, but feel the ending was a bit abrupt. Still highly recommended

Great read!!

I loved this book so much I have gone back re-listened twice. It is atmospheric and gets you right into the place and time. Antosca has become a favorite author, wish he had more books.

Stephen King esq

Not all books need to make sense or satsify all the questions you might ask...Im not really sure what the story is about....I will listen to it again though

intriguing

A little bit of a different kind of story. Haunting and odd. Felt like a weird dream. This story takes quick peaks down dark alleys while stumbling confused down the main path. Well written and as always very well read.
