Resumen del Editor

There is something lurking in the trees....

A winter storm has buried North Dakota in snow and ice. With accidents being reported across the region, Deputy Ron Weller must patrol along the main road through a normally tranquil forest in Beeman County. The night grows menacing as he discovers vehicles that have been run off the road, their drivers mysteriously missing. Strange tracks lead through a region of thick forest known as Devil's Rock. There, Weller makes a horrifying discovery.

A monster has awakened. Its hunger is insatiable, and its ferocity has no limits.

Protected by an armored exoskeleton, the beast is relentless in its pursuit of prey. It must feed or face starvation. What has started as a search for a missing driver has now become a fight for survival, as Ron Weller is hunted by the Beast of Devil's Rock.

Short monster story

This monster story could have been twice as long with more history and more present-day trouble. Instead, you come into the story the same times the characters do. You keep wondering what the town or county missed going on in their woods instead of following the story. I listened to the end twice. The end was ok, but I still wanted more. I have another book by the same author and enjoyed that one so I went looking for more. I'll listen to this book again, but it could have been fleshed out.

That’s a Mean Spider

The Beast of Devil’s Rock by Michael Cole is a really fun creature feature. The overall plot was really well written. Law enforcement officers start looking into multiple disappearances while out on patrol and the whirlwind of events starts to unfold. The characters were all very well written which gave you great satisfaction when the characters you did not like met their ends to the spider. Speaking of the creature from this story the spider truly was terrifying. It seemed more viscous then some of Coles other creatures. As how it killed its victims seemed absolutely horrific. The narrator Matt Godfrey did a great job telling this story and brining it’s characters to life. All in all I would recommend The Beast of Devil’s Rock by Michael Cole to anyone who loves horror or creature features.

Action

So much action from the very start of the book. I couldn’t put it down.

Great!

Loved it, generally enjoyed the banter, deeply horrified by the thought of the captured people in suspension waiting, painfully for the spiders return to finish them off!

The Beast of Devil's Rock

I enjoyed the writter's telling of the story and the creature. The reading of the story was not to my personal choice as the reader's voice changes to differentiate the characters made the police sound like different "Barney" characters from Andy Griffith. I would still recommend this story as it was a good story with lots of terror filled action!

Creepy!

gave me the creeps listening in the car on the way to work! 👍👍

A fun monster story

A straightforward thrill ride of survival. Nothing deep or mind boggling. A good poolside read/listen if you like monster stories.

It was okay

I did enjoy it but the cover does give away monster so no wondering. Also the childish behavior of the officers towards one another was a little much. The ending was rather abrupt too.

Awesome book!

Reminded me of the old scary movies! I loved it! I hope to read more by this author!

vivid!

I truly enjoyed this book, I didn't think I would honestly because it's not my usual kind of "horror" but I recommend this for a short story it's like 5 hours so I also liked that it wasn't overly written and dragged on. great story!
