Spawn

De: Shaun Hutson

Narrado por: Kobna Holdbrook-Smith

Harold Pierce didn't mean to kill his baby brother all those years ago. He didn't intend to incinerate him in a fire but he did and he has spent most of his adult life in a psychiatric hospital because of that. Upon release he is given a job as a hospital porter but that job involves the burning of aborted foetuses and the memories of what happened to his brother begin to torment Harold.

In the small town where he lives the terror is mounting because of the escape from prison of psychopath Paul Harvey. Within days of his escape a horrifying series of murders begins but there is much worse to come. Pierce and Harvey, both disturbed and guarding terrible secrets, are about to unleash a terror beyond belief....

Reseñas de la Crítica

"An expert in the art of keeping the reader turning the pages" ( Time Out)

Very meh.

An ok listen, but the author clearly had the scraps of two, maybe 3 stories, that he mashed together to get the word count up to a full novel.

Meh...

Story could have been better, longer...a little more detailed...abrupt and questionable ending...it was ok...kind of a clipped version

Unusual

This was not in my usual genre so it may deserve more stars. I found it interesting but somewhat gross. Really didn’t attach to any characters.

Mmm.. it was Ight lol

The book was a little boring.. and there was too many names lol I didn’t know who was what or whatever lol

Poor Narration

I didn’t care for hearing the narrator constant inhaling, it was annoying. And could be heard each time he took a breath.
