Summary
Random House presents the audiobook edition of Stranger Things: Suspicious Minds written by Gwenda Bond, read by Kristen Sieh.
A mysterious lab. A sinister scientist. A secret history. If you think you know the truth behind Eleven’s mother, prepare to have your mind turned Upside Down in this thrilling prequel to the hit show Stranger Things.
It’s the summer of 1969, and the shock of conflict reverberates through the youth of America, both at home and abroad. As a student at a quiet college campus in the heartland of Indiana, Terry Ives couldn’t be farther from the front lines of Vietnam or the incendiary protests in Washington. But the world is changing, and Terry isn’t content to watch from the sidelines. When word gets around about an important government experiment in the small town of Hawkins, she signs on as a test subject for the project, code-named MKULTRA.
Unmarked vans, a remote lab deep in the woods, mind-altering substances administered by tight-lipped researchers...and a mystery the young and restless Terry is determined to uncover. But behind the walls of Hawkins National Laboratory - and the piercing gaze of its director, Dr. Martin Brenner - lurks a conspiracy greater than Terry could have ever imagined. To face it, she’ll need the help of her fellow test subjects, including one so mysterious the world doesn’t know she exists - a young girl with unexplainable superhuman powers and a number instead of a name: 008.
Amid the rising tensions of the new decade, Terry Ives and Martin Brenner have begun a different kind of war - one where the human mind is the battlefield.
Critic reviews
"A pacey, creepy book that does what any good prequel should...this is unmistakably Stranger Things." (SFX Magazine)

A must for Stranger things fans
A great book detailing the back story of Eleven .
It’s true to the series and explains everything about who Elevens parents were and how it’s all linked to Hawkins labs .
You’ll find out more about a central character from stranger things but I’m not putting in any spoilers .
It’s very well written and everything adds up to support the series .
My only gripe is the narrator who is poor and doesn’t do justice to bring the interesting characters and plots to life

Essential listening for stranger things fans!
Loved this book, completely gripped from start to finish and read the whole thing within a week! I would recommend this to anyone who is a stranger things fan and has questions about Terry Ives and Doctor Brenner. For me I felt compelled to watch season two again and when I did I had much more interest in several character and scenes in the series. it's great for all fans who want to scratch that itch in the absence of a stranger things release that we should have had by now!
Audio production is great, I thought only one narrator did a good job of so many characters, the story didn't feel to me like it had been retrospectively fitted to the existing plot, as there were a few things that tied in quite nicely with season 2. All in all, five stars!

No Spoilers - But it's Good!
I'm not going to say anything about the plot.
What i will say is that if you're a fan of Stranger Things and desire a bit of a back story, this is the book for you.
A great story and well fleshed out characters, topped off with a truly fantastic narration by Kristen Sieh.

Brilliant book
Great book but it takes a while before you realise how it relates to stranger things, even with that though it is one of my favourite all time books

Great book
Really enjoyed a prequel! gave a detailed history of 11's mother. Also gives a much better appreciation of how much to hate Dr Brenner.
