Lo Blacklock, a journalist who writes for a travel magazine, has just been given the assignment of a lifetime: a week on a luxury cruise with only a handful of cabins. The sky is clear, the waters calm, and the veneered, select guests jovial as the exclusive cruise ship, the Aurora, begins her voyage in the picturesque North Sea. At first Lo's stay is nothing but pleasant: The cabins are plush, the dinner parties are sparkling, and the guests are elegant. But as the week wears on, frigid winds whip the deck, and gray skies fall.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,834
It's a fear more paralyzing than falling. More terrifying than absolute darkness. More horrifying than anything you can imagine. It's the one fear you cannot escape, no matter where you run...no matter where you hide. It's the fear of yourself. It's real. It can happen to you. And facing it can be deadly.

If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

In Ava’s dreams, her son, Noah, looks just the way she remembers him: a sweet two-year-old in rolled-up jeans and a red sweatshirt. When Ava wakes, the agonizing truth hits her all over again. Noah went missing two years ago, and his body has never been found. Almost everyone, including Ava’s semi-estranged husband, Wyatt, assumes the boy drowned after falling off the dock near their Church Island home. Ava has spent most of the past two years in and out of Seattle mental institutions, shattered by grief and unable to recall the details of Noah’s disappearance.

A British copywriter stays for a week at his composer friend Oskar’s elegant, ultramodern apartment in a glum Eastern European city. The instructions are simple: feed the cats, don’t touch the piano, and make sure nothing harms the priceless wooden floors. Content for the first time in ages, he accidentally spills some wine. Over the course of a week, both the apartment and the narrator’s sanity fall apart in this original and “weirdly addictive” ( Daily Mail) novel.

The dark side. He had fled from the terrors of his past, finding refuge in the quietness of the island. And for a time he lived in peace. Until the 'sightings' began, visions of horror seeping into his mind like poisonous tendrils, violent acts that were hideously macabre, the thoughts becoming intense. He witnessed the grotesque acts of another, a thing that gloried in murder and mutilation, a monster that soon became aware of the observer within its own mind. And relished the contact.

Mediocre at best
What would have made Asylum better?
I bought the Audible version. MISTAKE - could I get bigger caps please. A gravely voiced old man reading the part of a young, supposedly sexy woman? What gives? It totally throws off the story. It needed a different narrator so bad. I could not finish it. I totally lost touch before the finish. I mean really, who can listen to a gravely voiced man getting the hots for a guy when it is supposed to be a young woman? It is just screwy. It didn't make sense in my head and it was all I could focus on and the story was out of sorts as a result.
Has Asylum turned you off from other books in this genre?
No, just lost interest because the narration was so poorly done.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Paul Cameron?
Female

Narrator!
I gave the story only one star because I couldn't listen to any of it past the first two minutes! The narrator was terrible!

Hard to understand narrator
If you could sum up Asylum in three words, what would they be?
READ THE BOOK
What didn’t you like about Paul Cameron’s performance?
There was no performance, no offense to the narrator, but he was hard to understand, I don't know if its the equipment he used to record if it was not filtering out hisses and clicks in the speech or the narrator himself. There also seemed to be no emotion. It was very monotone and it at times felt like he was just reading a contract word for word as one long running sentence with no feeling at all. I had bad cell phone reception that was easier to understand at times. It made listening to the audiobook very difficult. I would of returned book if I didn't forget it in my files for three years.
Any additional comments?
I would not recommend this as an audio book.
