An island oasis turns deadly when a terrifying legend threatens to kill off visitors one by one in this haunting novel from the highly acclaimed author of The Girl from the Well and the Bone Witch trilogy.

Pristine beaches, lush greenery, and perfect weather, the island of Kisapmata would be the vacation destination…if not for the curse. The Filipino locals speak of it in hushed voices and refuse to step foot on the island. They know the lives it has claimed. They won’t be next.

A Hollywood film crew won’t be dissuaded. Legend claims a Dreamer god sleeps, waiting to grant unimaginable powers in exchange for eight sacrifices. The producers are determined to document the evidence. And they convince Alon, a local teen, to be their guide.

Within minutes of their arrival, a giant sinkhole appears, revealing a giant balete tree with a mummified corpse entwined in its gnarled branches. And the crew start seeing strange visions. Alon knows they are falling victim to the island’s curse. If Alon can’t convince them to leave, there is no telling who will survive. Or how much the Dreamer god will destroy …

La narracion es muy buena, la historia nunca me acabo de atrapar y el tinte woke de inclusión lo hizo menos disfrutable, si no tienen nada que escuchar esto los puede entretener. Definitivamente no se siente como Rin Chupeko en the Bone witch

Buena narración con un toque woke

The story is slow at first, but stay with it! It has crazy twists and turns. It’s scary, and dramatic, and sad, but well worth a good listen.

Great read!

I really wanted to like this book and was super interested in the horror aspect. I feel like there was teen romance thrown in that was completely unnecessary. I feel like it completely took away from the story. I stuck it out and got thru the whole book but there were multiple times during the scenes with the nonsense teens that I really contemplated not continuing. Loved the creativity with the dewata and monsters but was really irritated by the stupid teen romance angle...

Romance?

Amazing story

The book itself was okay. I enjoyed their other books more, but they can't all be bangers. My issue is with the edit on the recording. There were many times throughout the reading that the voice actor would do a take and then clearly read the line again to correct a mistake or to give different inflection and all of that was left in the final cut.

Recording needs a re-edit

This was an entertaining listen, but was predictable. I did enjoy the concepts behind the waking god on the island and the interaction with the filming cast/crew
Narrator does a good job.

Decent but not standout

This book kept me on my toes, always wondering what secrets the main character and everyone else on the island were hiding! There were some good twists and turns along the way and I didn't quite see the ending unfolding the way it did. Loved the story and the narrator but did have to speed it up since the reading pace was a bit too slow for me personally. Definitely was not disappointed listening to this book!

Enchantingly Creepy

This was an interesting story line. The curse and ritual was well thought out. But WHY does the plot have to include same sex relationship would have been fine without
