About this listen
How much fear can one man take? Marcus Holt thought his worst memories were behind him. A veteran of the Vietnam War, the tough old soldier is haunted by nightmares of brutal conflict. But he’s about to discover that his battle for survival has only just begun.
Professor Abel Worthe is brilliant, wealthy, and utterly immoral. He is an expert in a very particular field: the study of fear and death. Using his vast resources, Worthe has purchased a collection of haunted houses and paranormal sites, hidden across the world. And he intends to subject a captive to each location in his collection of horror, all in the name of science. All he needs is a test subject, a human lab rat to undergo his experiment in terror. And the target of his sinister attention is Marcus Holt.
The aging veteran soon finds himself snatched off the streets, and forced to endure a never-ending barrage of horror. But Marcus is no stranger to fear and death. He’s a fighter. And he is determined to survive long enough to find and kill his malicious captor.
Let the games begin.

On her 19th birthday, Princess Kelsea Raleigh Glynn, raised in exile, sets out on a perilous journey back to the castle of her birth to ascend her rightful throne. Plain and serious, a girl who loves books and learning, Kelsea bears little resemblance to her mother, the vain and frivolous Queen Elyssa.

If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,863
Magic, adventure, mystery, and romance combine in this epic debut in which a young princess must reclaim her dead mother’s throne, learn to be a ruler - and defeat the Red Queen, a powerful and malevolent sorceress determined to destroy her. On her 19th birthday, Princess Kelsea Raleigh Glynn, raised in exile, sets out on a perilous journey back to the castle of her birth to ascend her rightful throne. Plain and serious, a girl who loves books and learning, Kelsea bears little resemblance to her mother, the vain and frivolous Queen Elyssa.

If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

But when Letta's master dies, she is suddenly promoted to Wordsmith and finds the situation more complicated than she knew.

Escape ... If You Dare
What happens when you get dumped into a village full of the dead? Marcus is about to find out. Mr. Worthe has created a village of the dead, moving homes into a secured area, and then dropping test subjects to see how they manage. Marcus has, so far, lasted far longer than anyone expected, and now has additional people to care for.
He also has the help of one of the ghosts that he has released from her torment, and he is determined to alleviate at least one of the stronger ghosts.
I truly enjoyed this book! It was amazing! Shorter chapters allow for a better stopping point as needed, and just the right amount of creep factor. Ron Ripley is one of my favorite authors.

I had the luxury of discovering Ron Ripley's books after the Berkley Street and other series we're finished. I hate to think I have to wait to hear what happens next in this one. Really like everything about this one

Can't Wait For The Next In This Series!
Ron Ripley does it again with his Haunted Village Series, this installment of his new series has fast become a favorite (along with his Berkeley Street Series). I Love the main character, secondary characters, and especially the storyline so much I own it (originally) in the separate installments, group anthology, and in Audible formats. The narrator of the Audible does a wonderful job. Highly Recommended!

Best yet from Ripley and Bowers
Ripley has become my favorite author and Bowers may very well be one of the best narrators ever.
Exciting story line, extraordinarily well written, coupled with excellent character development and brilliant narration makes this a must hear for any fan of this genre, or any genre for that matter.
Huge fan. The pairing is just audiobook rock-star level entertainment.
