Horoscope Writer

De: Ash Bishop

Narrado por: Mara Wilson, James Babson, Ryan Burke

Leo: You’ll step out the door, prepared for a normal day. But you’ll never reach your workplace. You will vanish, without a trace.

Who is The Horoscope Writer? It’s not Bobby Frindley. He’s an ex-Olympic athlete who has fast-talked his way into an entry-level position at a dying newspaper. He’s supposed to be writing horoscopes, but someone has been doing his job for him . . .

On his first night on the job, Bobby receives an email with twelve gruesome, highly detailed horoscopes, along with a chilling ultimatum: print them and one will come true, or ignore them and all of them will.

Working with a skeptical co-worker, Bobby investigates the horoscope writer’s true identity, but the closer he gets to the truth, the more the predictions begin to be about him. Has he attracted the attention of a cruel puppeteer? Or is it possible that, like any good horoscope, it’s all in his mind?

excellent understanding of astrology and society

I enjoyed the insight into astrology set in a crime thriller by a nice guy narrator. he is not flawless, but grows into a better man.

No one's what he seems...

(As posted in Goodreads)
What a complex story and list of characters! There were many evil characters and several honest and heroic ones.
It was full of questions and activity all the way through

Listen on 1.75

I like the author this Is not his strongest work. If it is on sale and you like pulp give it a listen. It’s a novel you have to imagine reading in a 90’s airport and you’ll have a good time.

Meh

Storyline was OK. Didn’t really care for the religious rants but overall a good listen.

Great story

Good premise. wasn't sure in the first bit but roared through the chapters. I'll watch for more from this author. I enjoyed their other book.

Dear Mr Bishop, Please write more books

Thoroughly enjoyed both of Ash Bishop's works, which have a certain combination of humor, humility, wild adventure and clever storylines that I find super engaging and rewarding to consume. My only complaint is that I want more!

Disjointed and poorly written

There is a good idea behind this book, but the story is disjointed and the characters are not well developed. The pacing is terrible too.
