This is a tale of war, of family, of tragedy and betrayal and in the end a sort of redemption. Now as he nears the end of his life, he leaves the retirement home he was put into and prepares to face his ghosts head on and finally lay the war to rest. He is battling ghosts from his time at war that have not diminished with his long time at home. This is a tale of a Veteran, a Korean War Veteran to be exact. But sometimes, the worst horror of all is that which is right here in the real world.īrian Scutt has written a compelling novella that will hit home with a lot of readers. Cosmic, giant monsters, ghosts, insects and many more that have popped up over the years. There are so many different types of horror stories. I've listened to a few of his narrations, and he always does a good job, but this was his best performance thus far, IMHO. SW Salzman did the narration in the audiobook, and he knocked it out of the park. It's very short as well, but you don't walk away feeling you missed out on anything or that the story was underdeveloped. I won't go into the details for fear of spoilers, but also because I hope you'll come away from this review and RUN to purchase a copy of this book. But this turned into a fast-paced bloodbath, and my jaw was hanging open at the end. I was expecting to enjoy it on that level as well. I went into it thinking it would just be about a poor guy suffering PTSD and this young man getting a story out of him and some melodrama.

I don't often say this of indie books, mainly because so many are poorly done, but this was an absolute gem of a novella! I was blown away by where the story took me.
