Dandelion

De: Alex Bledsoe

Narrado por: Stefan Rudnicki

Reverend Deacon Elder does the Lord’s work in his own unique way. A former marine with the ability to detect and cast out demons, Deke goes where the need—and the evil—is greatest.

After receiving a terrifying warning of a botched exorcism, Deke shows up in Somerton, Tennessee, ready for battle. The demon possessing sixteen-year-old Carlyss Bolerjack had only partially been driven out, and Deke must convince a traumatized Carlyss to submit to a second exorcism.

But there’s more than one demon in Somerton. A powerful evil going by the name “Dandelion” has sunk its claws into Linda Scote, the local mean girl who was more than willing to invite the demon in.

As Deke tries to save both women, he’s opposed by both a bogus tent-revival evangelist and Linda’s slacker cousin, who may harbor his own demon. He’s helped by Carlyss’s social worker, who draws the line at believing in true evil, and another minister who’s seen demons up close. But what part is played by the giant twenty-four-hour TLC-Mart outside of town, which hides its own sinister secret behind bright lights and insipid jingles?

Entertaining by my favorite author.

While on a personal level I like Alex, he and I are on different sides of the political spectrum. I could have done without the pontificating. I am a refugee from so much of the southern religious community and I understand it very well.
That being said, I waited to listen until it was daylight outside and I’m glad I did. This was creepy as could be. The narrator SR is always spectacular in his reading. I’m grown up enough to know everyone is not going to agree with everything so I was not offended by anything here. Just creeped out.

TLC Mart

I too dislike “TLC Mart” and feel that it is evil. I can appreciate the authors imagination. Deacon Elder was an amazing character. I just wish it could’ve ended with Danny getting dealt with by authorities. The action and suspense in this book were tantalizingly. I couldn’t stop listening. 

Prepare for Chill Bumps

You won't regret listening to this hair raising story. There's no better combination than a story written by Alex Bledsoe narrated by Stefan Rudnicki!

Another good book

Alex Bledsoe is becoming one of my favorite authors. I have 2 more books to listen and I have listened to all of his collections.
Stephan Rudnicki does a fantastic job narrating. Alex Bledsoe did a nice job making his characters relatable. Personally I like how the sex or sexy scenes are not pornographic. There is a lead up, flirting and then the sex part are skipped over. It leaves more room for the story.

The story could end here but I am thinking there may be a few sequels to this story I would like to see Deacon’s next adventure.

excellent read

a page turner and one of the best, most realistic thrillers I have read in a long time. I look forward to the next time we see Deacon!!

Enjoyable contemporary demon hunter story

Great narration as always from Rudnicki. Enjoyable demon hunter story with some interesting contemporary social commentary/satire on big box stores and modern society.
