I have been enjoying Chuck Wendig’s special brand of horror, (even if he forever ruined apples for me) and was excited to dive into The Calamities, book one of the Fiends. A dark fantasy horror with demons, greed, powerful families and vivid dreams that bring four characters together on a deadly quest. I read along as I listened to the audiobook with it’s all star cast of narrators.
You Did Nothing Wrong by C.G. Drews delivers a suspenseful psychological gothic horror that will keep you on edge as you try to piece together what is actually happening from our unreliable narrator. Perfect for a dark, rainy night.
Bitter cold temperatures and the darker days of winter find me drawn to horror, post-apocalyptic and suspenseful tales, so I settled in with The Night Parade by Ronald Malfi. Narrated by Joe Hempel, the story has us following a father and his young daughter on the run after the world is turned upside down by a virus known as Wanderer’s Folly. A gripping listen.
I love Delilah S. Dawson’s brand of creepy horror and grabbed her newest thriller, House of Idyll. In this standalone fiction, Angelina Yves, a struggling singer/songwriter, is offered the chance to join an experimental luxury compound sponsored by the most famous band in the world, Black Idyll. Dawson delivered a dark, wicked and atmospheric tale that I devoured.
With an all-star cast of narrators, King Sorrow by Joe Hill was an audiobook I devoured. When one of their own is threatened, six college friends dabble in the occult and are successful, but what they called forth demands regular human sacrifice. The tale that unfolds is chilling, addictive and terrifying.
