Chris Grall
1937: The world on the brink of war. But in the city of Riverburgh, NY, 40 miles north of Manhattan, there was a different kind of war brewing. It was a war of survival for the common man. A war against the gangsters and thugs who ruled the streets and against the corrupt politicians who turned a blind eye to the evil that ran rampant in Riverburgh.
In a city where everyone had given up hope and cried to the heavens for a savior, a savior had arrived. But was he heaven sent or a monster from hell? A grim, skull-faced being glowed with a terrible brightness. A monstrous creature who wielded twin .45 caliber pistols with a deadly and practiced aim, as well as strange and frightening powers that matched his terrible glowing eyes.
But would even the terrible Grim Spectre be a match for the forces the gang lord Phylo Zeus unleashed against him? Even if he was, would the Grim Spectre be able to withstand the attacks of the corrupt mayor and his police force that dogged his every move? Caught between the twin forces of darkness encompassing the small city of Riverburgh, was the Grim Spectre too little, too late? Or can the supernatural avenger somehow defeat his many foes on both sides of the law while caught in the vise of their greed and corruption?

A 1930's trumpet player is bequeathed a magic belt that saves his life and turns him into the Grim Spectre--a crime-fighting supernatural entity.In his effort to rid the city of corruption he takes on an unhinged ex-priest, a professional wrestler, a vodouist, and a doctor who has injected himself with simian DNA. And then things start to get weird.The dialogue is snappy and humorous and the actor-reader does a great job trying on the different voices.
A Nutso Pulpy Ride

A magic belt grants a simple man great powers he begins a crusade of justice against the darkness that is encroaching. The Grim Spectre deserves a spot right beside the Shadow, as this is purely classical pulp at its finest. I just could not stop listening. It filled up my hunger for pulpy goodness, and left me wanting more! I really wish that the author produced more, like a full fledged series. Three book minimum, at least. That is how good this book is.
Grall, who is no stranger to Pulp tales (Check out the other books he's narrated, The Black Centipede) absolutely kills it here. I am quickly coming to admire his vocal skills, and I respect the way he takes control of a story. He really molds it, and makes it his own. I fully expect to see him doing a lot more narration in the future. Even though I did receive a promo code for this review it in no way influenced my considerations of the material, and in fact, inspired me to be more honest. In fact, getting a code generally makes me harsher as a reviewer as I am more often concerned what someone like Me will decide based on my review.
Even if this is a stand alone book it really deserves a good listening too, and if you are a fan of superheroes, pulp, noir, or just fun stories then this is a perfect book to get settled into.
