Nathaniel

By: John Saul

Narrated by: Laural Merlington

From the blood of the past, evil rises to seek undying vengeance....in Prairie Bend.

Brilliant summers amid golden fields. Killing winters of razorlike cold. A peaceful, neighborly village, darkened by legends of death....Who is Nathaniel? For a hundred years, the people of Prairie Bend have whispered the name in wonder and fear. Some say he is simply a folk tale - a legend created to frighten children on cold winter nights. Some swear he is a terrifying spirit returned to avenge the past. And soon...very soon...some will come to believe that Nathaniel lives still - darkly, horrifyingly real.

For young Michael Hall, newly arrived in isolated Prairie Bend after having lost his father to a sudden tragic accident, Nathaniel is the voice that calls him across the prairie night...the voice that draws him into the shadowy depths of the old, crumbling barn where he has been forbidden to go...the voice - chanting, compelling - he will follow faithfully beyond the edge of terror....

This was an excellent book as are all of John Saul

This was an excellent book as all of John Saul's books. I am a huge fan!

It was ok

Wasn't my favorite of his. It was ok. But not one of his that I would recommend.

awesome book!

it kept me on my toes the whole time and I narrator was great in portraying all the characters.

Great book

If you could sum up Nathaniel in three words, what would they be?

Well worth it.

Any additional comments?

The story about the ex-husband coming to visit in the middle of winter is the kind of creepy stuff I love..Too bad the narrator was so terrible, her voice sounds like she is on auto-tune.. I feel like I could have narrated it better.
