Review from Forsaken →
overall I did not enjoy this book. I had such a hard time finishing it. it was very hard to maintain my focus or interest especially in the end. the way the book ended didn’t make sense to me and it left questions to be answered. the guy reading the book did a fantastic job!..
I wanted to love it, I was hopeful to be transported to a 90’s tale of horror. Instead I listened to the rambling of a story that was too far fetched and poorly developed to be scary. The random pops of 90’s references did not help build the plot and seemed forced.

I didn’t like story at all. Too predictable and it’s not a horror from my perspective. Thought it will improve by the end, but nope. Spoilers alert!! Firstly, thanks to the author for separating Ukraine and russia. While I do appreciate it as a Ukrainian, at the end he still got all mixed up into..

If you’re fairly new to horror then you might like this one. Atmospheric and creepy, made even more so by the skilled narrator, it’s not bad. The problem for me is I’ve read this story many times before, done far better than this. I didn’t dislike it but I’ve spent more than 30 years reading..

I am a big fan of horror, but this book confused the hell out of me. I read all the reviews, and everyone seemed to love it, but I still can’t figure out what the hell was going on.

This book was not for me. I was hoping for something scary, and while there was tons of violence and gore, that doesn’t give me a fun creepy feeling. It was just gross and I was not hooked by the well-trodden premise of a dude trying to save his wife. *small spoiler for first chapter*..

WARNING: I’m going to give away some things…The “twist” at the end was evident in the first chapter. I finished the book even though there are two absolute no-nos for me – the death of a child and the death of an animal. I wish I hadn’t wasted my time. The performance was good. The..

I like a scary story that sucks me in. This one just sucks. It’s simply gore (and rape) with a flat, simple story-line. What a terrible waste of time and money.
Review from The Black Farm →
I have one hour to go and am finding myself almost rooting against the protagonist. The bizarre setting of the story was interesting, along with some of the monsters. The sneaking-around scenes are what shined, but when it came to action/fighting/characters getting themselves out of a tight spot, the solutions and dialogue were downright silly…

I can’t even finish it. I don’t care at all about the characters and find them annoying. The story is so slow to get anywhere and it makes zero sense half the time. How would someone who is terrified and whining 80% of the time be the hero of anything?
