Pressing Matters

De: Paul Avery Tindol

Narrado por: Shrader Thomas

You know what they say about all work and no play…

From the public's perception, Luckenbach Presses is one of the top vinyl record pressing plants in the country, with the employees constantly working against tight deadlines set by some of the industry’s top musicians and music labels to deliver the highest quality vinyl records. However, soon after Ruston Kilgore suffers a preventable workplace accident, he rises with an insatiable lust for brutal workplace bloodshed.

And being the hard worker that he is, he won't stop ‘till his work is done.

From the Haunted Minds Book Club Award Nominated Author Paul Avery Tindol (This House Will Never Be Warm, Hunting Snipe) comes PRESSING MATTERS, a gruesome workplace slasher.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Friday the 13th at Empire Records.” —Ben Young, author of Stuck and Home

“One part serial killer origin story, one part OSHA cautionary tale, this is a book with fantastic description that could melt easily like a barrel’s worth of PVC pellets into a screenplay adaptation.” —Bram Stoker and Shirley Jackson finalist, Rebecca Rowland, author of Eminence Front

“Tindol’s writing never fails to impress, and this is a perfect tribute to the slasher genre that combines tradition with the new, just as vinyl records are doing in the modern music world.” —MJ Mars, author of The Fovea Experiments

Retro Slasher Vibes

I really enjoyed this quick listen! It's only about four hours long, but the story feels complete and well done. The characters are well developed, especially considering the length, and the narration is fantastic. This book has an amazing retro feeling, and while it has slasher vibes, as a fan of psychological horror, I appreciated the sense of building suspense and layered plot. The setting was fantastic; the whole story takes place in a record factory. The kill scenes were detailed but in an oddly tasteful way, if that's possible, while still remaining gnarly and unique. This is my first read/listen of Tindol's work, and I found his writing style to be highly enjoyable; smooth and descriptive without being overly so. I look forward to checking out more!

Fun slasher.

I always enjoy a book that has places I remember from places I lived. It was a fun book!
