In the Devil's Own Words

De: E.M G Wixley

Narrado por: Clive Johnson

Moving house has become a way of life for 15-year-old Isobel Miller. Her father is an Army Major; her mother, a middle aged, pregnant, chain smoking alcoholic. But the move to the village of Langham could be the straw that broke the camel's back. To the truculent teenager it might as well have been to Timbuktu. Isobel is resentful of the baby, angry with her mother for dragging her away from civilization to live in a village that has no street lighting, let alone any decent shops.

The only light in her miserable existence is her grandfather, story-teller elite, her saviour. And when one of his macabre tales is mentioned in the local paper, Isobel is drawn into the depths of evil and devil worship. Her world, and that of everyone around her, turns upside down. The cause? A mysterious book, an omen, which once opened and read starts a cataclysmic chain of events, and their lives are filled with tragedy and disaster. Salvation comes in the guise of three other teenagers - Peter, Oswald, and Ariel - and the four form a bond so strong nothing can tear apart - nothing except maybe the devil himself!

May be listened to as a standalone.

Second Edition. New and improved sound quality.

A beautiful mix of tech, magic and religion. Great

Really enjoyed the book it had a little bit of everything. Technology mixed with religion and magic. Blended very well together along with carnage and a mix of emotions ranging from sadness and deceit to happiness and comradery. E.M.G pulls at your heart strings with a possible human extinction and the emotions to go with it. Well written and narrated. Overall a great experience.

DARK AND FASCINATING!

This was a very dark and very imaginative audiobook. A girl and her family (Army family) move to the country, much to Isobel's disgust. How can a girl such as she live in a place like this? Then, it really gets crazy! There's a book that could literally cause the world's destruction by the devil himself. And it does. And it sucks. There's a lot going on, all kinds of dark and mysterious creatures are in play, and everything works well together as the author creates a fantastic and dark world. Isobel teams up with three others who must take action to save the world. There are evil foes in their way, and will stop at nothing to destroy them, and the world.

Writing and narration were great!!! Really liked it, and was drawn into the story effortlessly and didn't let me go until the end. Very complicated, very dark, gripping!
I knew going in there were "sound issues," and didn't hold that against the book itself.
I'm a fan.

Great story, very entertaining

I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I really enjoyed the story and narration. I found it entertaining and will look for more from this author and narrator. On a side note, the narrator was gracious enough to address a question that I had with the book and helped me to discover the problem was on my end and was very eager to help get it rectified.

I highly recommend it!

This is truly a wonderful audiobook that is superbly written and narrated. The characters and story have a depth and breadth that a listener rarely has the pleasure to be witness to.

Solid Creepy Tale

Our main character is a teenager who has to grow up in a hurry as she joins with a group of other young people who find they need to fight for the fate of the earth against an oncoming apocalypse caused by evil men utilizing a book of dubious origins. As they go deeper they find horrific creatures from the worlds of nightmare, and while things get incredibly dark at times they still don't lose hope. And, perhaps most importantly, it never strays from being entertaining.

The narration is ok, I've listened to another volume that didn't bother me too much, and the narrator has a great voice. I hope that the quality can be improved a little such that others can enjoy listening to this story easier.
