About this listen

The Inheritance - A novel of a house haunted by an ancient evil. A tale of lies, envy, and curses spanning generations.

Mike Gray is still reeling from the sudden death of his father when he inherits Willow House, his father’s childhood home. Keen to move out of the city, Mike decides to move his young family to the small, quaint town of Fairview. But not all is right at Willow House. There are dark forces at work, which threaten to destroy what remains of the Gray family. The curse at the heart of Willow House has lain dormant for decades, but is about to be reawakened and unleashed.

British Story set in Atlanta, Georgia

Overall the story was very good. A little slower paced, which would have helped make it more gripping, if it wasn't so slow. The hardest things to accept were the British narrator trying to speak with an overly emphasized American accent, The Southern accents were way too overdone. And then there is the British words for American items. Torch for flashlight, biscuit for cookie, R A V 4 for RAV4, boot for trunk. I love British stories, and have absolutely no problem with the stories, however if you're going to write an American story, make sure you get it edited by someone who understands the words to make it more believable. I'm sure this story could have been set in Great Britain somewhere and been just as good.

WHERE ARE WE?!

British narrator with British terminology (torch, cinema, biscuits), but it’s set in GEORGIA?! As in the state in the US? And they hang out in the summertime outdoors to enjoy the beautiful weather? The story would have been really good, but I kept getting pulled out of the narrative because southerners eat cookies; biscuits go with gravy or jam. I’m not sure why she didn’t just set it in England! It would have been 5/5 stars.

just boring

besides it being set in the U.S. the use of British terms kept pulling me out of the story...which was dull and full of every possible possession trope. I finished it hoping it would get better, but it was just Plain bad in my opinion

Story is okay, but…

I really enjoyed the story until terminology used in the UK kept popping up. Every time I heard boot instead of trunk or meters instead of feet it kinda took me out of the story. Is the guy a Brit who moved to America? No, the story clearly spells out his lineage. It is not a huge deal, but still very distracting. If you’re a person from the UK writing as first person American take the time to research the vernacular.

British narrator for American story

I liked the general story, but could not figure out why a British narrator read 3rd person with a British accent and the 1st person with an American accent. Good story overall, if this doesn’t bother you.

Every Possession Trope in the Book

What started off as a mild annoyance at a clearly British author trying to write a story set in the US turned into eye roll after hard eye roll. Predictable, inauthentic, and unoriginal. How old was the son supposed to be again? And you couldn’t think to give the bad guy a less offensive name? If you like being beat over the head with American stereotypes wrapped up in British expressions and having Catholicism save the day, yet again, you might like it. Otherwise just save yourself a few hours and rewatch The Exorcist. Kudos to the narrator who did the best he could with what was given to him.

the storyline

it was enjoyable, and interesting to the ear and quit intriguing to the ear. why I don't leave feedback because there is a limit on number of words.
