Unabridged Audiobook
This is the first thing I have read by this author so I’m not sure about his other books or how he wrote their styles but all I see that he was going for in this one was shock value plain and simple. The story, although somewhat original, was not that good. Over the top cannibalism is the main theme and the author milks that for all its worth by turning the gore up to 11 with over the top descriptions and detail of everything from torture to cooking a teen alive. Nothing appears off limits to the author which could have worked if it had not been so outlandish that the reader just begins to expect what would be inconceivable thus making this book somewhat predictable. Although the narrator is a bit overdramatic at times boarding on annoying, his take on the villains really saves this listening experience for me as well as the strong female protagonist keeps the story kinda going but overall this book was a bust for me.
I want to listen to more of Jack’s books read Phil!! They are fun, thrilling and exciting!
