Light a Candle

Chase the Devil Away

By: Chris Holmes

Narrated by: Erin Miller

“Good always wins over evil.”

“Why?”

“Well, because...it just does,” Nick stammered.

“Otherwise the story would be pages of chaos and mayhem. The reader would have no empathy for the characters. It would be emotionless, brutal, no hope for salvation. Evil would win. That can’t happen.”

Ruby sat, silent and expressionless, his piercing eyes riveted on Nick. The flow of perspiration seeping through Nick’s clothing increased. Ruby’s sudden burst of laughter shattered the uncomfortable pause. “That’s a debate we’ll save for another day.”

Aspiring horror author, Nick Teravelli has just signed a contract with Ruby International Promotions, a prestigious agency with a reputation for skyrocketing clients to fame and fortune...or at least the ones who don’t die in the process.

The Many Voices of Erin

With the myriad of voices in this intriguing book, the narrator was able to find the perfect voice for each character. The characters are exceptionally well written, with a driving story to enhance and deepen them individually. The story is provocative, riveting, and sinister. The variety of voices are elegantly handled by the narrator, with never a doubt about who is talking, even in rapid-fire exchanges. From the sweet, very Italian voice of Grandmomma Rosa to the evil, bottomless voice of Victor Ruby, Erin magnifies them all.
I was finding every excuse to listen to more and more of the book, and towards the end, the last four hours or so, I couldn't "put it down!" Now I'm just a little sad that it's finished.

Loved the narrator

The book kept you both guessing and in familiar horror territory. I giggled, shed a tear, and enjoyed the experience of the audio entertainment. The diversity of voices and characters was impressive. I recommend you check it out.

A Deal With The Devil

This is a somewhat predictable story with a decent twist at the end. The performance was a bit dramatic and some of the character’s voices were quite annoying.

I received this audiobook in return for my fair and impartial review.
