Publisher's summary

Hellboy comes to a crossroads in Enigma, Georgia, a small town beset by strange occurrences. Sent to keep an eye on Sarah Nail, a young girl hiding from the curse of her family, he becomes entangled in the blood debt of evil mystical preacher Brother Jester. Stuck between human malice and the mysteries of the occult, Hellboy comes up against an intrigue of ghosts, demon trees, talking bullfrogs, and a race of lost mutant children.

Antediluvian Mansion???

This reader has a pleasant enough voice and I do enjoy their rendition of the voice of Hellboy. However at 4:01 into the reading a pre-civil-war mansion is referred to as "antediluvian." The word that should have been used is "antebellum," unless of course we are to believe that this Georgia mansion existed before the Noachic flood. This sort of wildly imprecise language can ruin a story for me.

I enjoyed the performance immensely. Good fun; the way a Hellboy ought to read.

I think I enjoyed the secondary characters as much as much, maybe more, than Hellboy himself. I enjoy southern eccentricity.

It’s fine.

I wasn’t a big fan of this one. I like most of the Hellboy novels and usually enjoy this narrator’s work, but this one was kind of lame. Hellboy sort of plays second fiddle to an annoying know-it-all and doesn’t get much of a chance to shine. The writing and voice acting for most of the characters was sort of goofy and cartoonish. The story was hard to follow and had a rather lame resolution at the end. There were a handful of fun moments, but honestly, I’d skip this one.
