Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 332
King has tenderly staked out a territory for his wife and three daughters, Grace, Lia, and Sky. He has lain the barbed wire; he has anchored the buoys in the water; he has marked out a clear message: Do not enter. Or viewed from another angle: Not safe to leave. Here women are protected from the chaos and violence of men on the mainland. The cult-like rituals and therapies they endure fortify them from the spreading toxicity of a degrading world. But when their father, the only man they've ever seen, disappears, they retreat further inward until the day two men and a boy wash ashore.

No rhyme or reason
Revisado: 03-08-19
There isn’t enough narrative explaining the bizarre behaviors practiced by the girls and women who are central to the story. It’s a very uninteresting mosh of surfacey characters and nonsensical behavior.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 108
There was no pattern to the murders, no common thread other than the fact that the victims were all vacationers, robbed of their possessions, and slain in seemingly random crimes. Authorities across three continents and a dozen nations had no idea they were all looking for the same man: Charles Sobhraj, aka "The Serpent". A handsome Frenchman of Vietnamese and Indian origin, Sobhraj targeted backpackers on the "hippie trail" between Europe and South Asia. A master of deception, he used his powerful intellect and considerable sex appeal to lure naive travelers into a life of crime.

Fascinating.

The characters are well developed. Charles’ life is almost unbelievable and the entourage he collected to support his criminal empire is a real clown show. Excellent narration also

Revenge is one of the great themes in literature, from Shakespeare to Poe. This collection contains 18 original stories commissioned for this volume plus a reprint of a classic Ruth Rendell mystery.

Terrible narration

Terrible narration
Revisado: 07-06-17
Some of the stories were very clever and suspenseful. Unfortunately the actor doing the narration is so terrible that you can barely pay attention to the story. The accents are awful, she over enunciates every consonant and simply cannot create the illusion of two characters speaking in the same story. I am going to give it a few weeks and try reading the book as opposed to listening. Datlaw is a genius at pulling together these anthologies and will report back on the actual content.
