About this listen

"Who am I? Why, I'm you. Or parts of you. The best parts. I'm the touch of Richard Speck, Ed Gein, John Wayne Gacy, Ted Bundy, and Bin Laden in all of you. I am the thousand tiny angers and fleeting rages of your day - at the car that cuts you off on the freeway, at the kid who sneaks ahead of you in line at the movies, at the old fart with the full basket in the eight-items-only express checkout at the supermarket. I'm the nasty glee in the name-callers and the long-suffering pain, the self-loathing, the smoldering resentment, the suppressed rage, and the never-to-be-fulfilled promises of revenge in their targets. I'm the daily business betrayals and the corporate men's room character assassinations. I'm the husband who beats his wife, the mother who scalds her child, I'm the playground beatings of your little boys, the backseat rapes of your daughters. I’m your rage toward a child molester and I'm the pederast's lust for your child, for his own child. I'm the guards' contempt for their prisoners and the prisoners' hatred for their guards, I'm the shank, I'm the truncheon, I'm the shiv. I'm the bayonet in the throat of the political dissident, the meat hook on which he is hung, the cattle prod that caresses his genitals. You've kept me alive, you’ve made me strong. I am you." The immortal evil defeated in The Keep and reincarnated in Reborn has come of age and begun to settle scores. He targets a few unlucky individuals for destruction now, but soon the whole world will suffer. And he will feed on our tears and our pain.

Editor reviews

That's not a graduate student; that's an evil force waiting for his chance to destroy humanity. It's a bit complicated, but if you've made it to book five of the Adversary Cycle, you won't give up now. Reprisal takes us deep into this horror series about good versus evil, and the gruesome scenes are not for the faint at heart. Kurt Elftmann's performance is stiff here. His enunciation is perfect and his characters' voices are engaging, but the narration needs animation to spice up this unusual tale. Overall, fans of chilling heroic fantasy sagas will meet their match in this audiobook.

I really enjoyed this follow up. It is a great insight into how petty and powerful The One can be. A story of revenge and dark power that is anything but predictable.
