The Grieving Stones

De: Gary McMahon

Narrado por: Chris Barnes

A small therapy group arrives at Grief House hoping that a combination of isolation and hard work will help them begin the healing process each of them so desperately needs.

But their presence has awakened something in the old dwelling. Something linked to the ancient stone megaliths at the rear of the property and a terrible crime, committed centuries before.

Before the weekend is over, the group will learn the secrets of the Grieving Stones, and come to understand the true meaning of transformation.

very good with excellent narration!

+1 star for quoting [book:The Yellow Wallpaper|8217236] at the start
+1 star for Chris Barnes' narration- He was fantastic!!

The Grieving Stones is a very good story about grief with some local folklore mixed in. The writing was good, the story was really good and original. I would read more by this author.

I requested this audio book in exchange for a honest review.

Dark Story

The GrievStones is a dark story with twists that you won't see coming. If you love dark horror, I highly recommend this book it may be short, but it will get your adrenaline pumping. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own free will.

Good, short listen

This was an interesting story about a group of people in a therapy group going to an old house for some relaxation and to work on their "issues". It's the typical "not everyone is who they seem" story lines where everything is explained in narrative at the end.
Fun, short story.
The best part (IMO) is the narrator.

A Subtle and Atmospheric Piece

Gary McMahon knows how to tell a tense and moody tale without cheap cat leaps out of nowhere jump scares. This is a pressure building story that draws you in slowly, sort of like sitting in quicksand and not realizing it until you're already up to your neck and its way to late to get out.

Barnes uses his voice like a weapon, like a razor sharp blade that you don't feel as it enters your body, and only begins to hurt once you realize you've been wounded. Again, but that point it's too late. He's got you.

I could have listened to a larger more fleshed out novel and been even more satisfied.

Excellent! Dark and brooding!

I listened to this one on audio and it was excellent. The writing was dark and brooding and the narration by Chris Barnes really added some extra atmosphere. There were some good characterizations, as well for such a quick work, which clocked in at just under 3 hours.

A field trip group therapy session to a place called Grief House may not have been the best idea. Just sayin’.
