The Watchers

De: A.M. Shine

Narrado por: Jacqueline Milne

You can't see them. But they can see you.

This forest isn't charted on any map. Every car breaks down at its treeline. Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced into the dark woodland only to find a woman shouting, urging Mina to run to a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams.

Mina finds herself in a room with a wall of glass, and an electric light that activates at nightfall, when the watchers come above ground. These creatures emerge to observe their captive humans and terrible things happen to anyone who doesn't reach the bunker in time. Afraid and trapped among strangers, Mina is desperate for answers. Who are the watchers and why are these creatures keeping them imprisoned, keen to watch their every move?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Dark, claustrophobic." (T. Kingfisher, author of Paladin's Grace)

Its so hard to keep my attention and i lose interest easily. This book was unique and suspenseful. Enjoyed every minute

Worth the listen!

Pros:
- Loved the reader, great performance, very listenable
- Beautiful and vivid writing
- main character is very likable
- Story was really interesting and kept me invested throughout

Cons:
- pace lagged in a few small areas but always picked things up again pretty quickly
- could have been a bit scarier for my tastes but still very entertaining

Overall:
- definitely recommend checking it out!

Very scary!

Very scary indeed! Though I do enjoy horror, I don't like being creeped out too much. This one almost pushed me over the line that says, "Maybe you don't want to finish this one," but I kept listening. It's a very good book. Well written, full of intrigued, and interesting characters. The narrator was excellent as well. At first I thought her accent would be off putting but I quickly became accustomed to it. Well worth the credit.

Excellent woodsy horror

We need more Irish folk horror in our stories these days. Huge fan of this setting and the narrator was a delight to listen to. If you like movies like The Hallow or tv like FROM this will hit the perfect spot for you. Only slightly disappointed that the authors second book despite similar book jackets does not appear to be the sequel this seemed to be building to.

loved it!

creepy, freaky , keeps you on the edge the whole time, i couldnt stop listening, the ending was unexpected.

i really hope there is a part 2 .

LOVED this one!

Absolutely terrifying. Will definitely listen to it again. It had me on the edge of my seat from chapter one until the very last word. Love it!

Entrancing till the last moment.

The paranoia in this story is a subtle as a line of coke, and hotdamn I wish there was a sequel.

Spooky Creature Mystery

I absolutely loved this book. It’s a great creepy horror without any graphic gore. The narrator has a lovely voice - very well read.

a beautiful story

the characters, story and portrayal were incredible. everything about this book was engrossing. I'm going to look for more by this author.

So Good!

Loved everything about this book! The ending brings it all together in an “Oh wow” kind of way. I’d really recommend this book if you like this genre. The performance was excellent too!
