Skeletons

These are some twisted sicko stories.Some are pretty good,some I just couldnt finish.J Stempien was a fine narrator.I was given this book by the narrator,author or publisher free for an honest review.

Really Twisted Short Stories

This author is clearly on the edge of being a sociopath and it is evident in his writing. The stories vary in type and degree but some of them are quite disturbing. For me to admit something is disturbing means the average person will be incredibly creeped out. While that is a compliment, take that to mean that if you are not into books that delve into the twisted psyches of messed up people you might want to pass on this book. Leroy, the story of the janitor was a bit much for me and really showed me where my line is for sick and twisted stories.

As these are short stories the plots are fairly basic and somewhat predictable. Each has a twist to them that takes them in a different direction and adds something different. The characters in these stories really are something else. Michael Gore has an ability to really depict characters that are twisted and downright disturbing. I really haven’t had such a strong reaction to a bunch of short stories as I did with this. Some of these were quite tame and others were really over the top.

The narrator did a good job. I liked his character voices and his 3rd person narrator voice and cadence sucked me into the stories and I was finished with the book before I knew it.

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Creepy and Weird

This is the first listen by the author and hopefully not my last. I totally enjoyed listening to this book, there are some stories were deeply disturbing and creepy such as ME, Wrong #, Leroy, Ripe and Four Halloweens were my favorites. There was guts/gore, cannibalism, and killers something for any horror fan to enjoy. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Thank you

Short story collection

Consistently good stories but nothing amazing. If you're hurting for some horror this is a good place to start but not sure how if there aren't better collections out there.

Skeletons in the Attic

This is an engaging collection of horror stories. It grabbed my attention right from the very first story and did not let go until the end of the last story. Each of the stories is well written and have strong characters that keep the reader interested throughout the story. There is a good mix of the depth of horror and plots in these stories. Some are dark and gruesome while others are lighter. Listeners can enjoy many different stories and levels of horror in this collection. I enjoyed the many different plots and scenarios contained in this volume. Narrator J. Stempien does a good job with keeping the narrative flowing and pulling the listener into each of the tales.
