Very disappointing.

I enjoyed the previous books by this author, but this is no where near the standard or quality of previous writings and even the narrator seems to enjoy taking the mickey by his massively over dramatized delivery. Overly cliched. Not good enough.

Struggled

Really struggled with the performers attempt to voice the characters. Very slow, and gave the characters no charisma. Had to endure to the end to be honest.

Mediocre story & bad narration.

Minor Spoilers.
So I chose this book as it refers to it's style as Lovecraft and Silent Hill, two things I love. It has some good beasties and ok gore, albeit lacking style or originality, but it's issues are sadly many.
For one, the story is silly. Aside from how the story tells of a monster attach 50 years ago when many people were eaten, it seems nothing happened after this. No police investigation, no news across the world and throughout history of a town where monsters ate half the populace, nothing.
Next is this exact scene. It's told as a man recounting a story, yet it is described in acute detail as of happening then, and not via a presented memory.
Then we have the overall story, with the most vacuous explanation I've read in years where the big reveal is 'oh it was that person you never met and we've not even me ruined before but yeah, that'll explain it all'.
And finally, it has the single most weird price of rulebreaking I've experienced ever on a book. A character meets someone and we hear their reaction. Then the narration describes the scene but personalised the description by saying 'They looked like a Dark *** Priest '. alA neutral, non existent story narrative cannot use adjectives!
Aside from the writing, the narrator, while certainly trying, is a terrible choice.When 95% of the book is from the perspective of a female, why use a male narrator who can't pull off a female voice without making her sound as dumb as a log? I'm not sure if it's the accent or the way he enunciates, but she sounds perpetually whiny, confused and stupid which really detracts from the story.
So, to summarise in one short line. The story's bad, the writing weird and the narration poor sonId say avoid this one.

Awful, just awful

Terrible writing with worse narration. Never got beyond the first few chapters. Narrators supposed accent and female voice characterisation were laughable.
