Blur

Blur Trilogy, Book 1

De: Steven James

Narrado por: Nick Podehl

The isolated town of Beldon, Wisconsin, is shocked when a high school freshman’s body is found in Lake Algonquin. Just like everyone in the community, 16-year-old Daniel Byers believes that Emily Jackson’s death was accidental. But at her funeral, when he has a terrifying vision of her, his world begins to rip apart at the seams.

Convinced that Emily’s appearance was more than just a mere hallucination, Daniel begins to look carefully into her death, even as he increasingly loses the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality.

What’s real? What’s not? Where does reality end and madness begin?

As Daniel struggles to find the truth, his world begins to crumble around him as he slips further and further into his own private blurred reality.

Full of mind-bending twists and turns, Blur launches a new trilogy of young adult thrillers from Steven James, a master of suspense.

Where's Scooby-Doo?

So teenage High School football star, Dan, starts seeing things that may or may not be real. A girl died, maybe two or three others. He gets the gang together to hunt the bad guy. Saturday morning 'toons never did it better.

Nice mystery!

This book kept me guessing until the end. It even had a few surprises. I enjoyed the description of his feelings and how he perceived situations. It all felt believable.

Great teen reader.

A really great murder mystery with a paranormal twist. Anyone who likes mystery, fantasy or ghost stories will like this one.

Good Listen,

Enjoyed all the way thru. keep me guessing . Finished in two listens.
narrator was good

Excellent first novel written for a teen audience

Steven James writes novels about crime and police; at least he did until Blur. James does a great job with his first effort in the teen genre. BLUR reminds me somewhat of John Green's works and of Harlan Coben's Mickey Bolitar series. I believe my grandchildren will like the book. I certainly enjoyed it and I was last a teen over half a century ago . Highly recommended for teens and adults!

Nick Podehl did his usual fine job of narration.

Blur, Book 1

Great book! I thought it was a very interesting aproach & plot. What it might be like for someone in their late teens, to suddenly have this new gift. Someone with a personality, that would not easily believe in such things. With the question of what was truly going on in his mind, a mistery in itself, unfolding along with the plot. Yet still leaving you thinking, knowing, there's more... I really want that next book.
P.S. It's a book for ALL ages, not just "Youth", I'm 52.

Good, but...

I liked this book, but not enough to continue with the series. It was somewhat predictable, but not in a way that made me not want to contine reading. The writing was good, the premise was interesting, but, like I said, it wasn't, "Ooh, that was so amazing/exciting that I don't want it to end".

Defiantly a children's book

Decent story with a few holes.
About an hour into this book I lost interest and subsequently ruined the remainder. I got to thinking that the ghostly visions Daniel had could have just told him who the murderer was. Oh well.

Reaaally good.

really great story and the audio was thankfully well paced and great voice imitations, so you know who is talking.
Crazy to think the events of this story all happened in only two short weeks. Definitely buying next book.
