Resumen del Editor

US expatriate Bobby Ives is an aimless Vietnam veteran living in London with his girlfriend. The extremely volatile Ives is obsessed with two strange events in his past: the fact that he was declared dead in Vietnam via administrative error, and the time he experienced a vivid waking dream in which he became a zombie.

Ives finds himself becoming more susceptible to uncontrolled rage; he also experiences quasi-fugue states where he lets that rage overwhelm him. In the midst of such a fugue state, he's capable of great violence. His girlfriend dies as the result of one of his rages; other victims soon follow.

At first, he perversely revels in the changes that have occurred. Then, realizing that he is swiftly losing control, he seeks help from a clairvoyant who seems to have insight into his condition. She initially refuses, and his rampages continue. Eventually, she relents, and tries to help him by imprisoning him. Her efforts prove unsuccessful, as he escapes confinement, forcing her to take more drastic action.

Not bad

I was given this review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. I liked the narrator and the book is not bad. There were some boring parts that I skipped through, but in fairness I need constant action, not character building or set building. There are actually 2 stories in this book. The first book was pretty good, but I could do without all the sex and sexual “violence”. The second book, I believe its called The Dreams of Dr. Ladybank it was about 2 hrs long and wasn’t too bad.

Twofer for a toother

I had no idea Stephen King suggested this book. I'm leery of what he thinks is good. This book has two stories. The main one centers on a guy who may or may not be a werewolf, but he isn't very likable and has no redeeming features, which is the part that I liked. I get tired of every protagonist having to be a good guy or vulnerable. The second story felt like a filler for extra pages to count as a novel.

Narration is top notch.

Brilliant, compelling!

Would you listen to The Nightwalker again? Why?

Absolutely I would listen again. John Lee is a superb narrator who has taken great care with this work by Thomas Tessier, one of the best horror/thrillers of the last 50 years -- so says Stephen King!

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Nightwalker?

The slow-burn of the main character's descent into hell is a metaphor for so many things we all go through in life....but what happens with his girlfriend is as chilling a moment as any in all the fiction I've read...

Which scene was your favorite?

The opening is a grabber...as is the scene with his girlfriend at the bus stop...

If you could rename The Nightwalker, what would you call it?

Why rename it? To what purpose? It's a great title.

Any additional comments?

Read. Listen. This one you'll never forget!
