I had the privilege of reading this in physical form. When the audiobook dropped I scooped it up. This book is so much bloody and gory fun that I could not stop listening. James Kaine always knocks it out of the park. He is and will continue to be an author I constantly buy from!

As much as I would like to enjoy both of these authors. There is too much use of slurs against gays, and self loathing. So much so that I had to give up. As a gay man I do not appreciate hearing the F word being tossed around to be shocking and that's what this was.

The dread, story and characters are all real. The suspense is so well done, even there is nothing happening it's palpable. I can not wait to continue with this author!

A man hunts men, and makes soup for the needy.....what more could you ask for? Robert Essig knocked this one out of the park. This story is well thought out and never lets up.

This book was so much fun. I have heard such great things and it does not disappoint. It's a great story with great representation of the LGBTQIA+ community. Thank you Mr. Tingle for making our community feel seen!

It took me longer than I expected to get going, but the story is solid and the characters make sense. I enjoyed the narrator but her voice was a little too soothing. This turned out to be such a great story!

I felt a lot of this book took a character we loved and made her the problem. Though it finishes strong. It's definitely not my favorite the series.

This book is a straight ghost story. The stakes are real. Kaine continues to connect with the reader, and draw you into his worlds. This is much more tame than his other works, but being the masterful story teller he is, he pivots without missing a beat.

The end feels sort of like the author gave up. The story builds to this really exciting 3rd act that never happens.

I really enjoyed all 3 stories. The narrator was acceptable. Though her mispronouncing words was sometimes a bit jarring. Overall I had fun listening to this one and it's worth checking out.
