The performance by Zachary Quinto was fine, the writing was extremely poor. This was an uninteresting and very predictable thriller unfortunately.

I decided to abandon the book about 40 minutes from the end. This audiobook was a disaster. The narration leaves a lot to be desired, but the tragedy is in the writing. The stories are predictable because they all rely on cliché horror tropes with no personal touch from the writer. No twists, no flair which ultimately takes away all the horror because the reader knows exactly where every story is heading. The author relies also on crutches in turns of phrase, which feel clumsy and elementary. This was very disappointing overall and I'm hesitant to pick up anything else by this author.

This is my first novel from Nick Cutter. I'm happy to find a horror author that really keeps my attention. The characters are compelling. Cutter hits every subgenre of horror that I personally love. Body horror, the grotesque, insects, even thalassophobia. I can't wait to pick up another of his works.

I read all the reviews that said this book never gives you a break. That's true. I read this book at a time in my life that I experienced an immense loss. It was full of emotion, true human emotion, and I loved it. It was a comfort to me. Talmadge was a character I grew to respect and care for. I would describe the book as a snapshot into a full life, a sad one, but a full one.
