How to Survive Camping: The Man with No Shadow

How to Survive Camping

De: Bonnie Quinn

Narrado por: Jeremy Carlisle Parker

A campy, cozy horror novel about a manager of a haunted campground just trying to get through the season, perfect for fans of Grady Hendrix, Rachel Harrison, and Welcome to Night Vale.

I am a campground manager. I don’t have a list of rules because I’m trying to ruin your fun…I’m trying to keep you from doing small, simple things that could result in your horrific and most agonizing demise.

Goat Valley Campground has killed generations of Kate’s family. The land is old, passed down through generations, but the campground’s reputation doesn’t just draw campers year after year. Creatures from folklore and horror have made Goat Valley not just their home, but their hunting ground.

As campground manager, Kate has rules to protect her campers—if the man with the skull cup offers you a drink, accept it or you will die a gruesome death; don’t buy ice from the children with no wagon; and of course, never ever follow the lights. Still, not every camper follows the rules…which means not every camper survives their stay.

Soon decapitated and exsanguinated campers are the least of Kate’s worries; one of the most dangerous inhabitants of the campground is determined to claim the land for himself. Meanwhile, something in the land is shifting, the tides are turning, and the curse that hunts members of her bloodline begins to close in…

I want this turned into a TV show

I loved everything about this book and can't wait for the next one! I want this turned into a TV show.

Great Story

Loved the story, a nice mix of action and paranormal. Reminds me of those rules creepypastas but in book form.

Ready for More

Love everything Jeremy narrates and especially love being able to find talented new (to me) authors through her. This story is a journey, peeled back in layers until you realize that the MC is not, and never has been, as alone as they think they are. There are horrors, but there is also humor and tenderness and resilience and growth.

No matter how much you believe you know what's coming next, or how right you may be in specific moments, you will never fully anticipate everything, as Quinn world builds continuously until the very end, making you immediately desperate for more.

Thank goodness there are three more books in this series!

Imaginative and unique.

I would give this book all the stars in the world. First heard the collection of stories on the No Sleep Podcast and was hooked. This is a modern day Grimm’s Fairytales with a strong female protagonist. Love this book!!!!!

excellent story telling

what a lovely surprise twist at the end. loved the world building and character development.

can not wait for book 2

I have read every book in this series and was so excited when they finally got it turned into an audiobook the story pacing was always good I thought the narrator did an amazing job of keeping the story flow the only criticism and it's such a minute one is I felt sometimes her male voices tended to be the same and I would like a little variation other than that did an amazing job here comes book two hurry hurry hurry please

I want to go camping ;)

I loved this story all the characters and situations were just great I look forward to the next book... can't wait!!

Love This Series

I'm a long time fan of this series, so happy I can listen to the first full book!

Thank you for choosing terror over romance

Dark, chilling, and refreshingly original. The main character breaks the mold she's independent, compelling, and not defined by romance. A real treat for aro aces. The story doesn’t shy away from unsettling details, where characters meet truly gruesome fates. Think eyes and tongues lost, making it a true treat for horror lovers. I’m eager for the next one, it got some good laughs from me too

Love, Love, Love!!

If you are looking for a humorous story with thrills and adventure, follow the ONLY rule and purchase this book! You will not be disappointed!
