About this listen

All is not boding well for Father Julius....

A street preacher decked out in denim robes and running shoes, Julius is a source of inspiration for a community that knows nothing of his scandalous origins.

But when a nearby mental hospital releases its patients to run amok in his neighborhood, his trusted if bedraggled flock turns expectantly to Julius to find out what's going on. Amid the descending chaos, Julius encounters a hospital escapee who babbles prophecies of doom, and the growing palpable sense of impending danger intensifies...as does the feeling that everyone may be relying on a street preacher just a little too much.

Still, Julius decides he must confront the forces that threaten his congregation - including the peculiar followers of a religious cult, the mysterious men and women dressed all in red seen fleetingly amid the bedlam, and an enigmatic smoking figure who seems to know what's going to happen just before it does.

In the end, The Revisionaries is a wildly imaginative, masterfully rendered, and suspenseful tale that conjures the bold outlandishness of Thomas Pynchon, Margaret Atwood, and Alan Moore - while being unlike anything that's come before.

What Was That?

Dense, beguiling, obtuse and wonderful. Beautiful writing and an insane (at times) narrative style. And the narrator nailed it. I loved this book.

You will continually go “oh it’s that kind of story”

Then you will go “oh, it’s that kind of story”. It’s a masterful onion. Worth the read.

a bit complicated

it took me about 10 hours in until I understood what was happening in the book. the plot is quite thick. was a good listen I suppose. I still don't understand the ending though.

Difficult

I rarely give up on a book but after 12 hours of The Revisionaries, I'm calling it quits. I have no idea what's going on; I cannot follow the story and have lost the thread of the premise. The narrator is not to my taste either. I was hoping for a story I could get lost in for a few weeks. I tried, really I did. This one just didn't cut it.

I tried so hard with this one and chucked it after about six hours. 

I listen to a lot of audiobooks and I prefer the detailed Epic adventures. I tend to listen off and on all day. Around the house, in the car, etc. Despite devoting hours to this audiobook, I was constantly lost as to who is who, what is going on, what is the point, where is it going, between the way the story is written and the way it is performed, it not only failed to capture me, but I had to bear down and reinvest two or three times just to see what I was missing.

Save your time and money.
