Ian & Jen have wonderful talent. I throughly enjoy every piece that I have of theirs. their voices are calm and soothing—I often listen to their stuff at night when I’m winding down.
love, love, love. 👏🏻

Ten more extraordinary tales of terror, penned by the prolific horror masters of old. From Lovecraft's take on the Yuletide and the Black Veil of Nathaniel Hawthorne, to the tragedy of Bierce's Owl Creek Bridge and Sheridan Le Fanu's authentic narrative of a Haunted House.

what’s not to love about classic works of horror?? (trick question! the answer is “nothing”.)
Poe, Bierce, Hawthorne, and my main man, Lovecraft. 🙌🏻
Ian Gordon & Jennifer Gill always produce great quality readings, and this collection is no exception.
Ian Gordon has the perfect ‘stormy night’ voice, as I like to think of it: just wonderful for any horror reading.
Jennifer Gill has the most lovely, clear voice. pitch perfect.
they are both truly talented and give new life to classic stories, some of which I’ve never read/heard.
great collection, great pair, happy listener!
*I received an audible credit to leave an honest review for this collection, and I was pleased as punch to do so.

Historia4 out of 5 stars 16
Alex is a troubled teenager with a checkered past, a broken home, and a surprising ability: psychometry. When he touches items murder victims held in their final moments, he relives the events in gruesome detail. But who will believe a troubled teen, especially when murders implicate the town's founding family? If you like amazing supernatural stories that are intense, powerful, and fraught with emotion, then you'll love Weston Kincade's suspenseful coming-of-age trilogy, A Life of Death. Ghosts are speaking, and they want answers.

enjoyable, but not what I expected.
Revisado: 07-22-18
This book was not at all what I expected.
I was expecting a typical YA paranormal book. Melodramatic, a bit much at times, but mostly a quick and fun read (or listen, in this case).
To me, this was first and foremost a book about a teenager, who has dealt extensively with trauma and abuse and is struggling to deal with it in addition to figuring out how to be a ‘normal’ kid. Alex has to try to navigate all the other craziness that comes with family, school, puberty, etc.
It is a very sad account of trauma and abuse that some children have to endure, every day of their lives.
It was, at times, really difficult to listen to. It was not gratuitous, violence for the sake of violence. But I think it’s worth knowing about, in case it’s a trigger for any potential listeners.
The paranormal aspect of the storyline was very interesting, but definitely seemed a sideline to the main story of Alex’s family. I love me some paranormal, and I would have liked to have more of that aspect.
Alex’s ability to ‘read’ objects, and the deceased people attached to them, is well done. It’s interesting that it is not just murder victims who he connects with—as a typical storyline might use—but anyone who died in an abrupt, violent and/or traumatic way.
I had very few cons for this listen. The writing was a bit heavy at times; sometimes a bit too much description, or just a bit overly dramatic. Some of the language was a bit clunky at times, too, and I found myself thinking, ‘People don’t really talk like this’. People are, generally speaking, informal in their day to day language; I think that should translate into books, if we are to believe a character, or characters.
And Mr. Ian Gordon’s reading? Well, I’d listen to him read a grocery list.
Ian’s voice is always a welcome and comfortable addition to any story.
All in all, a good listen. I’m glad I had the chance to review.
*I was gifted an audio credit in order to listen to this book and leave my honest opinion and feedback. I was happy to do so.
