Publisher's summary

On an isolated mountain, a stone labyrinth provides rough shelter for a band of mercenaries. At its core lies a centuries-old mystery. But in chapter two of The Boy in the Iron Box, no secret is safe.

A concealed pit; an iron box, wrapped in chains; a statue of a boy. What unknowns await the anxious, disoriented team in this strange ruin? Night will tell.

From Academy Award–winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro comes The Pit and the Box, chapter two of The Boy in the Iron Box, a blood-chilling serialized novel about an ancient secret that was never meant to be unleashed, featuring exclusive interior artwork. Each chapter can be read or listened to in one breathless sitting.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Very different story line vs most today..

Would love to hear another installment. Almost seemed as if it was based on a very old folktale. Key element were left undetermined….leaving the listener to figure out who? What? How? Leaving us with a hint at the end as to what/who was involved, but still no certainty on how it had happened. I lived the fact the listener was not sounded - it was left open for speculation.

4 stars all around

Getting pretty interesting! I’ve decided that I do very much like the narrator. I found the atmosphere to be better in this second part and the pacing is just right. Loved that ending.

Greed gets you every time!

Love how it’s all progressing, but I need more! Just as something big takes place, it’s over. On to the next book!
