Narrado por: Beau Thomas

Nestor Castle—a bestselling, award-winning extreme horror author—has the perfect life, having transitioned from indie darling to mainstream success. Although he dislikes the limelight, he finds comfort cooped up in his lake house with his loving wife and healthy daughter. However, after announcing his next book—a departure from the horror genre—he finds himself targeted by a disgruntled fan who calls himself ‘Butterfly.’

Butterfly’s messages grow more aggressive, more disturbing, and more threatening each time. When strange occurrences start happening around him, Nestor begins to fear that he is being stalked and he starts to suspect everyone—his agent, his neighbors, the deliveryman, his wife.

Who is Butterfly?

Jon Athan, the author of The Groomer and Lovesick, brings you a psychological horror novel with an extreme edge. There is a fine line between fan and fanatic. Will you cross it?

crazy paranoid or right

the story kept me engaged trying to decide if it was true as he saw it or as his wife and everyone else saw it. the gore was extreme but appropriate for the subject if I have one negative thing to say it is with the performance. the over the top attempt at female and baby voices was a bit much. can stand to tone that down a bit.

Damn…

I’m gonna need a break after this one. What a crazy ride. Well done sir!

INSANE

An extreme horror reader becomes obsessed with an author…what could go wrong? Athan explored this idea in this novel, and what comes of it is INSANE (I mean that as compliment to Athan). As usual, Jon takes real world scenarios and puts the most extreme, horrific spin on them, and it scares the crap out of me (which is extremely hard to do). The creativity he shows although each of his novels, this one being no exception, is impressive, and gruesome.
I listened to this one, and the narrator did a fantastic job really conveying the horrors that Jon laid out for us.
If you like extreme horror, Jon Athan should be your go to…and this book is a great place to start.

The gory details are amazing

This book was good but I wish it had a little more violence in it to really take it there. I enjoyed it though it’s really good and the storytelling is amazing!

Fantastically depraved….PERFECT!!!!🤘🏻

Love the super vivid descriptions of the extremely engrossing mutilations!!🔪 (If you smile when reading my twisted praise, do NOT let this one get by!!! MUST READ FOR FANS OF THE GENRE!!! And of course to the upmost talented author Mr. Jon Athan: My 3rd read from your lovely collection, dear sir. I cannot rightfully express to you how oh, so very fond of your books I have become! The time that you take with each individual within each story, let alone the entire story in itself, is not just evident but VERY much appreciated by the reader (AKA me😉) The characters are extremely relatable which is, I believe anyway, necessary when writing to the “extremes” as you do. Thank you, once again for gracing me with another fantastically depraved book!! Look forward to reading my next one!!
