Voices From Beyond

Ghost Finders, Book 5

De: Simon R. Green

Narrado por: Tim Reynolds

In a quiet London suburb, four university students participating in an experiment inside a reputed haunted house hold a séance that goes terribly wrong. What - or who - ever they summoned has taken their minds away, leaving them empty shells. Enter the Ghost Finders, ready to confront an enraged poltergeist for the students’ very souls. All in a day’s work - except the team doesn’t know that in another part of the city, a different entity has also breached the threshold between worlds. And this time what is at stake is not four lives - but the very existence of all humanity.

I love this series. I find myself laughing at all the crazy characters and a bit sad as well. I am an avid reader, but I love the audio because I get the accent, lol.

Done. Simon R. Green and I are Done.

What would have made Voices From Beyond better?

If the premise of the story wasn't stolen from the Movie Prince of Darkness (1987). Secondarily, if he could actually make likeable characters. I know it his style, but it is tiring. His characters are not smart, they are just annoying. He molds the world to fit his characters and whatever nonsense he thinks up. Lastly, all of his stories end by someone doing something super simple and wining the day.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Not Simon R. Green.

How could the performance have been better?

Tim Reynolds did not help. His voice is too whiney. Too often the only way you can tell which character he was suppose to be is how whiney they sounded.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

I normally never say this, but .. No.

Any additional comments?

I think I have read too may Night Side, Drood books. They all blend now and this series is nothing new. Same thing rehashed and not very well.
