About this listen
How far would you go to reset the course of your life?
After spending the last twenty-five years in prison, former professional wrestler "Bad Guy" Brian Hearns is willing to do anything for a second chance. Then he learns the truth about the dark circumstances that landed him behind bars, and an old acquaintance gives him the means to go back in time and set things right.
But can she be trusted? And is resetting the last quarter century really as simple as cutting open his skin and contacting the same demonic agents who ruined his life to begin with?
Bladejob is a novella of extreme horror and not intended for sensitive listeners.

As past lives of the crew are put on the chopping block, blood begins to spill. Has starvation driven them to delirium? Have they fallen out of the Lord's good graces?

Charlie Haynes is an aging ex-detective, working unsolved cases. Obsessed with cleanliness and order, Charlie is a loner who trades on his experience of grisly crimes, and struggles to maintain a relationship with his adult daughter. When three teenagers are murdered in a public cemetery, the ritualistic killings show similarities to one of Charlie’s old investigations: a savage serial killer who targeted the members of a notorious Traveller family, the Boswells.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

It’s more than just wrestling!
So I have to be honest. I never would have picked up this book based on two things. I don’t care for wrestling, and I had no idea what a Bladejob was - I had to look it up! I’m saying that to say this. I really liked this story!
I had no idea what to expect when I went in other than it was most likely related to wrestling, and it was probably graphic. Both are true, but it’s a lot more than that. I found myself fully invested in Brian’s fate. I finished the book incredibly fast because I couldn’t stop listening. The narration was excellent!

This was a fun listen…
Bladejob is a story about a professional wrestler who serves 25 years in prison for a murder he didn’t commit. He’s offered a chance to go back in time to change history and right this grievous wrong, but it’s not without its pitfalls and consequences.
The main protagonist is sympathetic in that he is the victim of forces beyond his control or understanding. He wants to change the past to avert the murder, but also to restore his family life and relationships. Even when he succeeds in averting the original murder, those forces take from him in other ways. It’s a good metaphor for life in that we gain something but we may also lose something in the process. There is a second protagonist in the story as well, and it is interesting to see her grow and progress.
The story is interesting and fun to listen to, with a good balance of humor, magic and horror.

Wrestling meets the occult
Brian Hearns, former professional wrestler, has just been released from prison after a 25 year murder sentence - one that he claims that he didn't actually commit. As he tries to settle into post prison life, he's given an opportunity to change the past and get a second chance. Is he willing to take the risk?
This was a fascinating, quick listen. I loved how it went from past to present to PAST past, going between what really happened behind the scenes of the fight that changed Brian's life forever. I never would have guessed the real reason behind it all, and I think if my husband actually read books, he would enjoy this one as he was a huge wrestling fan growing up.
I listened to the audiobook, and as always, Joe Hempel did an incredible job.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
