Salem: Autumn Fool

Jason Crane, Book 5

De: Richard Gleaves

Narrado por: Eric Michael Summerer

Jason Crane's Salem adventure continues! Caught in the middle of a war, separated from his friends, forced to take sides between the resurrected witch judges of the Appointed and the terrible witch Legion, Jason is fugitive from the noose and from his destiny, but he can escape neither one.

The Jason Crane series is an epic Halloween chase through centuries of real history, myth, and original lore, full of ghosts, curses, witches, monsters, and all sorts of trouble for a rational teenaged hero perpetually in the middle of magical trouble.

Autumn Fool is the fifth of the series, after the Sleepy Hollow trilogy (Rise Headless and Ride, Bridge of Bones, and General of the Dead) and Jason's first Salem adventure (Blood to Drink).

It was so worth the wait!

The Autumn Fool , book 5 in the Jason Crane series was absolutely worth the wait! This book shows Richard's growth as an author and storyteller.

Seeing the relationship between Jason and Kate develop over the 5 books has been an awesome and wild adventure that has made me smile, laugh, cry, etc.

One of the things that I love about this series is how Richard uses real locations and masterfully incorporates them into his story. I was hooked from start to finish. The autumn fool not only met my expectations but exceeded them, leaving me eager for the next book in the series.

What an adventure!

I am such a fan of the Jason Crane series. The lore, action, and humor are all very well-balanced, and it’s and adventure that I never want to end!

Another winner!

I recently finished this latest story which has me sad (because I finished it), and excited as I can't wait until the book. I have been so impressed with the series. I feel like each book gets better and better. I'm not sure what Jason and the Rogues will be dealing with next, but I will be patiently waiting for the next story.

Amazing book

I love this series so much, yet this book exceeds all expectations. The book follows all the rogues, who are separated during parts of the book, but are very much part of the story.

The book is so action-packed yet filled with extraordinary, poignant moments.

Jason Crane finds himself in yet another supernatural escapade filled with witches, demons, magic, and comedic relief.

The new characters introduced add extra depth to the plot. Jason meets up with a new group of friends who help him out of some very tricky situations. However, he is also plagued by new, even more evil villains than in the previous books.

This book will leave you breathless and excited for more.

The performance by the narrator is amazing. By far one of his best narrations.

Awesome Narration on top of an epic story!!!!

Narrated by Eric Summerer and he brings the story to life!!!!

Book 5 in this series is absolutely epic! The saga of Jason and the Rogues takes off like a rocket, and it doesn’t stop for a second! The world-building, the rich history, the witch lore, the unforgettable characters – it all comes together in a way that will keep you hooked from start to finish. The stakes are higher than ever, and the action is relentless!

Autumn Fool is a whirlwind of emotions! One minute you’re on the edge of your seat, biting your nails, desperately waiting to find out what happens next. The next, you're heartbroken over a loss, then cheering for a huge victory. Just when you think you’ve caught your breath, the roller coaster of twists and turns throws you right back into the chaos – Jason and his crew face new horrors, bigger challenges, and Halloween magic like never before!

I can’t give away any spoilers (you have to experience it all yourself!), but trust me – this book is a must-read! It’s an unforgettable story that will stick with you for ages. Highly recommended doesn’t even begin to cover it! Fair warning though – with all the incredible details packed into this book (and the others in the series), you’ll find yourself going back again and again to catch all the little things you missed. You won’t want to miss a single moment!

He did it again!

I’ve been waiting a very long time for this book to come out and it didn’t disappoint! I love the advancement of the characters and how much he expanded the world.
Not to mention, the narrator is the best I’ve ever heard!!
Love this series!

fantastic

the narrator was amazing. excellent story teller. the story keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Dark Places

I cannot express, sincerely, how much I enjoyed this book. With things left the way they were in book 4 I didn't know if I was going to like this book as much as I did the first 3 books. There is a lot to unpack in it. I really enjoy the direction this series is going. The author did a phenomenal job with the story telling and deepening their character development. This story seems a bit darker than other installments, but it's really well thought out, and I like that.

The Story of Jason Crane continues

Once again, swept into the world of Jason Crane, this book kept it going and in a bad way. The performance was great and once again draws you in. The twists and turns, can't wait to see what happens next!

Amazing on all fronts!

Every time a new book is released in this series, I re-read from the start. It just gets better each time through. Autumn Fool continues the trend. The story is amazing and the narrator does an incredible job bringing it to life. With every book, you get a great new story and somehow always a cliffhanger leaving you wanting more. I can’t wait for the next entry.
