Lyrical beauty, dark tragedy, clash of cultures and worlds.
Wow. Phil has created a dark world here, rooted in the fantasy world of american idol and the homespun world of small town USA. He's populated this isolated country hamlet with white trash and hard working specimens, lazy and hardworking politicians and cops, transplants, recent and well established, from the big city, and given them all their own voices, their own desires, their own demons. Then he set loose a nightmare to swallow them up. This review won't cover the plot, won't spoil the fun in any way, only tell you that by subscribing you'll hear wonderfully written characters with clear voices and quirks, and look over their shoulder as they navigate small town treacheries, personal demons, and the monster that's come to swallow them all. Rossi's a musician, and his lyrical but craggy voice will lull you into his world, and root you in place with his characters, deep enough that you'll feel every loss, every tragedy along the ride. It's a slice of culture shock and the true shock of unstoppable horror that overtakes the world he makes you care for.

I have listened to a few audio books by Phil, and he is a master story teller and the production quality is top notch! Phil is now one of my favorite authors! You need to check his books out!

I loved this podiobook. Rossi does a great job of creating characters that the reader identifies with immediately, and then puts them through hell while you listen. Powerful stuff here. I want to go back and listen to it consecutively, now that it is complete. Episodic listening isn't my favorite...Read full review »
