Pawn store guy, junkies, assassin nun, crooked cop, serial killer porn couple, occult weirdo, a Rhodesian, and more. All willing to kill each other and more to get these two swords that may or may not be the fountain of youth. My favorite is the assassin nun, Sister Michelle, you got to love Kevlar vestments. But there are no good guys in this book they are all bad it is just which is the not as bad as the rest.

This book is definitely filled with a ton of action and suspense. Every time you think you have this story figured out the author calls squirrel and takes you off on a different and wonderful direction, it really keeps you on your toes. All of his character are well put together and you will find something to like even in the ones you don't like.

Audiobook narrator Fred Wolinsky takes this book and makes each and every character different and unique. He gives them different voices and different attitudes, Mr. Wolinsky makes you feel as if you are there in the story either helping your favorite character and hindering his enemies, but you are there with them in the story, seeing, hearing, feeling, everything and that makes for a awesome performance.

If you could sum up It's a Bad, Bad, Bad, Bad World in three words, what would they be?

Character-driven, intriguing, plot-twists-galore.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

The characters were very engaging. Some had you rooting for them while others were downright despicable and had you hoping they get everything they deserve! The story took 90-degree turn after 90-degree turn, while never losing my interest. Every character arc came nicely together without jumping through hoops or over sharks. Mr. Curtis M. Lawson had evidently put plenty of effort into the backstories of each character and it shows (in a good way). I'm sure his background work has made some interesting virtual footprints on Google. :-D The references to pop culture were done very well and added a nice extra spice.

Have you listened to any of Fred Wolinsky’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Fred Wolinsky is obviously extremely talented. He has full command of accents and voice variety. However, his voice combined with his mannerism of stretching out the last word at the end of every other sentence had me feeling that he was just on the edge of going into a 1930's trans-Atlantic accent. Also, though well performed some of his characters were borderline cartoon. His female voices really jerked me out of the story and I felt like I was listening to either Norman Bates or Edith Bunker. :-/

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Being a father of 3, I naturally found all of the scenes that had children suffering kind of disturbing though I understood fully (and agree) that they were important to the story.

The piece where we learn of the Rhodesians backstory was very well put together. The overlap with another character and the story device used to give us all this backstory was ingenious!

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed this very much and would read other books by Curtis M. Lawson. I will gladly refer his books to friends as well. Thumbs up Mr. Lawson!

A cast of characters that will blow your mind!

This was definitely one of the strangest books I have ever encountered. It features the Bonnie an Clyde of the murder for fun set, a psycho warrior nun, a pair of cursed knives, a lady cop with a sick son and, by the end, a whole lot of dead bodies. If you're at all squeamish about violence or bad language, this one's probably not for you, but it' alternately funny, horrifying and oddly addictive, to the point where I really wanted to keep listening to find out where it was going.
I you're a fan of stories about psycho killers and really twisted plots, this one has almost an early Stephen King feel to it.

Murder Most Artistic

Fred Wolinsky performance was laughable. He's large men sounded like the principle from Beavis and Butthead and anyone Italian sounded like Mario and Luigi. So in my minds eye I imagined those characters dressed up as a nun or Mr. Rodgers. It took away from a good story.

Good story with mediocre performance

At first the speaker was hard to enjoy, but once the story got rolling, I enjoyed it. Cool story, I would love to listen to more!

It's a good, good, good, good book!

A dirty cop, a pair of serial killers, and a nun assassin walk into a bar...

This was a fun book, Curtis Lawson brings together an insane group of people all gunning for a set of demonic knives that can suck the life out of their victim and give it to the wielder. This brings a bunch of zany lowlifes into a no holds barred fight for the prize as everyone scrambles to be the ultimate victor.

I thought the book was decent, Nothing that changed my life but a fun romp with some scum bags. I kept thinking of that movie Smoking Aces throughout the listen.

I personally didn't like the narrator though, He was weird and kind of robotic, like an autistic speak and say. His voices were decent but the overall narration was just... strange.

It's like a popcorn movie but in book form

Super fun, fast-paced, really well-written story. Not a boring moment. This could seriously be a Tarantino film. I love the way the eccentric characters' storylines work together. In the end, it gets pretty wild.

Highly recommend this book, and the author's other work-also awesome!

A wild ride!

This was a pretty fun book. I would have given it a higher rating if it had not tried to develop a heart towards the end. The plot was really fun, sort of like the movie Smokin Aces if you are familiar. I liked that there were no real good guys and everyone was available to be taken down. The blades that were the focus of the hunt were a nice touch introducing a level of supernatural to the base desires for money and murder.

I was given a copy of this book on request for my unbiased opinion.

This wild, funhouse ride of insanity has everything you could look for in an action/mild horror hybrid. A Rhodesian Mecenary with ethics (won't kill kids), a militant Catholic nun assassin of the Sisters Hospitallers (who'll kill anyone shes assigned to kill), a terminally ill pair of serial thrill killers, a guy who destroys peoples lives for cash, as well as dirty cops, junkies, pervs, and a pair of knives that once belonged to Vlad the Impaler and Jack the Ripper that have a twisted dark magic. As you can imagine, everybody wants to get a hold of the knives and the power they hold. With an interesting cast of characters, excellent dialogue, some quirky plot twists, crazy action and horror touches, this book will appeal to a wide range of readers. I can't wait to see where the Author goes from here.
As far as narration, this is the first time I've heard Fred Wolinski and he did a great job with this one. Multiple accents, male and female, and he nailed them all, especially the Rhodesian, not an easy accent, and the Nun. His narration voice has a lilt to it, not something you hear every day. I cant recommend this Audiobook highly enough!

A wild thrill ride with a touch of Dark Magic!

I really enjoyed it. This book was full of action and suspense! The narration was great and kept me entertained. The author did a great job with the character builds and plot. This was my first book by this author but definitely not my last! I look forward to reading the next book! I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

GREAT READ!
