Audiobook Review

This was the best sounding but most confusing book I have read in a long time. The narration by Homer was absolutely top notch and I would highly recommend having them in more audiobooks.

Now onto the story...well I cannot say much about it because I understood very little. The atmosphere was top notch and this could have been spun into a Stephen King type horror very easily, but the fact that I listened to this entire book and I have no idea what happened is not good. I am not sure if Harris was/did paranormal things or if the books really were there for these "children", nor do I know if what happened at the end actually happened because it seems that this is an unreliable narrator.

I am also confused about the relationship issues, was he just a drunk who lost his partner and that was it?

But just the fact that the narration was so good makes this a 3 star read.
