The Mud Ballad

Never be alone again

In a dying railroad town, a conjoined twin wallows in purgatory for the murder of his brother. A disgraced surgeon goes to desperate ends to reconnect with his lost love. When redemption comes with a dash of black magic, the two enter a world of talking corpses, flesh-eating hogs, rude mimes, and ritualistic violence.

Loved it!

Great story, nice miserable characters (which i like in horror novel), great drama, great comedy. Awesome narration by Rain!!! Well done all around!!!

A disgustingly good time!

Daaaaaaang! Killer pigs, conjoined twins, evil texts, this book has it all. And this Rain Corbyn who reads it does a KILLER job, lots of great character voices. It’s short, but a great time.

Dark & twisted tale

This was one dark, twisted and strange story. From talking corpses, killer pigs, angry mimes, filth, stink, curses and so much more. One of the strangest stories I've ever listened to but somehow it works. Now I feel like I need something light and airy to clear the darkness this story put in my brain.

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

Chilling Tale in a Dark World. Great Narration!

I had great fun diving into this short tale of desperate people doing desperate and dark things. Quenell does a great job painting weird characters in a strange and dark world. Excellent narration by Rain Corbyn immersed me in the vivid descriptions of drunken carnies clumsily enacting their bloody, sinister plot. It's like Wile E. Coyote meets Clive Barker. I felt like I needed a shower after listening to the top-notch narration. I especially loved the character voices.
