Publisher's summary

Samuel awoke in the suicide forest...

But where are the bodies? First a pack of wolves and then an ominous cloud eating away at what remains of this mysterious and barren parallel universe. Samuel must keep running to escape it.

And when he does finally find others in this forsaken land, Major, Kole, and Mara seem to have their own agenda - and conflicting theories on how they can escape the Reversion.

He’s got one shot at redemption. One chance at making things right. How will Samuel atone for the sins of another lifetime?

Even if he does escape the Reversion, what kind of world is waiting for him on the other side?

The universe is unwinding. And Samuel is caught in the gears.

You’ll love this tale of science fiction and dark fantasy set in a post-apocalyptic world.

All in all, very solid writing that keeps you captivated on what is waiting for the characters around the corner.

Out of the books I have read, it definitely captures the essence of Kings, "The Dark Tower" series. I you are a fan of the books as I am, then you will be in luck.

This is the first rodeo with Lawrence at the head, leading me through a desolate world and it was a pleasant experience.

Any additional comments?

When I first learned of this series through Facebook of all things, I was kind of excited to begin this journey. I followed Thorns fan page and email newsletter and was eventually chosen for a review copy. I can honestly say this was amazing because the book exceeded my expectations. This book left me wondering what would come next and now I cannot wait to get started on Book 2. If you are a fan of horror, you owe it to yourself to check out this series.

Interesting!

An interesting tale in a creepy world. As the tale unfolds, you're dragged along with the characters as they try to figure out how to get out of their predicament. Many things happen, some are explained, some are not, in the end you want to get the next novel.

Gripping Story

Any additional comments?

Im not a huge horror fan but I do read J Thorn's books...I love them. This book is very well narrated an written. I didnt find this story "scary" persay I think it is more of a "play with your mind" creepy. The characters are easy to know an understand an I enjoyed listening to how they handled the issues that came up for them. I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to take a day an spend it in the mind of an brilliant author....

Brain Horror

This book is a bit cerebral in its approach to horror. It is not full of spine-tingling stuff that has you on the edge of your seat, instead, it has a lot to offer the mind as you journey through a very interesting take on "after-life"(?)

I did find myself wanting a bit more action at times, but once I got into the flow, I found this to be a very pleasant read that fit perfect in small doses during my day.

Reversion

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review. While this book started slowly, as the story progressed, I became more interested in the characters, why they were in the reversion, and hiw they were connected. This was an interesting "study" on second chances.

What did you like best about this story?

The psychological development of the characters as they try to figure out why they are in the reversion and why they have a second chance.

Have you listened to any of David H. Lawrence XVII’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This was my first time listening to David. He has a pleasant voice. The varying voices for the characters were subtle but distinctive. I would definitely listen to him again.

Who was the most memorable character of Reversion - The Inevitable Horror and why?

Samuel was the most memorable character. He was "teachable," able to learn from his experiences.
