More Weird Gems



This is the second book in the Tales of the Weird series. Author Tom Slemen has more unusual tales to thrill, delight and chill you. These tales come from around the world, unlike the Haunted Liverpool series. Truth is often stranger than fiction, this book helps to reinforce that. The tales were fascinating as usual. I read this book using immersion reading. R k Meyer does a decent job with the narration, but his dry reading lacks the emotion this book needs. I prefer the wonderful Nigel Peever, who handles accents so well. This type of book should be narrated by a Brit.

If Art Bell made you feel skeptical, this will make you feel insulted

At what point does fanciful stop being entertaining? The author sets out to find this threshold, then dives far, far beneath it. Even worse is the narrator's grade school "Read for emphasis, Bobby" style. Emphasizing every fourth word confounds the listener's attempts to make sense of each sentence. Worth noting is that the author is also the publisher. No doubt the editor as well.
