About this listen
Nick Hayes retreats to the forest to escape his demons, but he soon discovers a bigger monster is waiting for him in the woods.
Nick takes a summer job in a National Park after a terrible breakup. However, before he can put the pieces of his life back together with help from a new friend, he uncovers a dark secret. Someone or something is hunting campers in the park. No one is safe. Not adults. Not children. Or even the smallest forest dweller. Given his troubled past, Nick would rather die than let another innocent soul go missing.
Can Nick stop the monster before it kills again, or will he become its next victim?

Thirteen-year-old Ben is sent to a remote reform program for troubled teens by a juvenile court judge. But when he arrives at the camp, located on the edge of the vast wilderness of northwestern Montana, he immediately recognizes that there is something off about the counselors. They’re too friendly and upbeat…yet Ben can tell there’s an undercurrent of menace. As he gets to know the boys in his cabin, he soon discovers that they each have far more going for them than whatever crime landed them there.

Germany, 1945. In the waning days of World War II, the Nazis have been all but defeated. Uwe Fuchs, never a fighter, feels fortunate to have avoided the front lines as he cared for his widowed mother. But Uwe’s fortune changes when Hans Sauer, the village bully, recruits him to join a guerilla resistance unit preparing for the arrival of Allied soldiers. At first, Uwe is wary. The war is lost, and rumor has it that Hans is a deserter. But Hans entices him with talk of power, brutality, and their village’s ancestral lore: werewolves.

Traveling deep into the Catskill Mountains, the Albany field office discovers something far more terrifying than a terrorist training camp. With more questions than answers, the JTTF team gathers their evidence and prepares to leave the forest when all Hell breaks loose. What started as a routine investigation quickly turns into a fight for survival against a foe that knows every inch of the terrain they are fighting on.

They planned the perfect heist. They didn't plan on Bigfoot. After committing a series of daring robberies, Mason, Travis and Jack disappear into the untamed forests of the Pacific Northwest with their loot. Little do they suspect, however, that the forest holds secrets far more terrifying than any of their crimes. As paranoia fractures their unity, and the body count rises, they must confront the legendary creatures of the Pacific Northwest and forge a fragile alliance with a compound of doomers, hippies and preppers.

Story
The legend of the Ozark Howler is as old as the mountains themselves, the bloody tales of terror, mutilation, and murder a foundation block in the region’s folklore. Skeptics dismiss the Howler as nothing more than tall tales and the work of overactive imaginations, but those who have seen the monster tell a different tale. Carter Renfrow is hiding from his past and living the life of a wanted man when a multi-car pileup interrupts his plans, and two worlds collide in an epic clash with life and death hanging in the balance.

Whatever you do, do not listen. Ignore that pull, the need to escape from drudgeries of life and find peace and solitude within nature. It is not the cool breeze and the scent of pine that whispers your name. No, these things within the forest will rip out your heart and devour your soul. You will tremble as they revel in your madness, taking everything from you and leaving you with nothing. Delve inside this anthology of what truly lurks within the shadows of the trees. We dare you to take this journey with us and find out what horrors await you.

Story
When two marines and their corpsman reunite after a decade apart, they find themselves caught up in the mystery of their former squad leader’s disappearance. With little more to go on than a handful of disturbing charcoal sketches and the whispers of a local legend, they plunge into the depths of one of America’s last truly wild places. But the trees themselves begin to whisper dark secrets. Secrets of trafficking and violence. Of rotten science and blood. Of something else that lurks in the shadows of the pines—something ancient, savage, and hungry.

As the ash and chaos from Mount Rainier’s eruption swirled and finally settled, the story of the Greenloop massacre has passed unnoticed, unexamined...until now. The journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the town’s bloody wreckage, capture a tale too harrowing - and too earth-shattering in its implications - to be forgotten. In this audiobook, Max Brooks brings Kate’s extraordinary account to light for the first time, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own extensive investigations into the massacre and the legendary beasts behind it.

True be Told...I don't read books like I should. I do however like a good Audio Book.
I was told about the first book, but I REFUSED to fall asleep a million times reading it. I saw on Tik Tok that said the Audible version dropped. I was all in!!
The book was only 5(ish) hours so it was a quick road trip or half week commute listen...I knocked it out Sunday afternoon while still squeezing in a couple St Patty's Day Beers in between chapters. I was also inspired in the listen to have a whiskey the "right" way!!! Needless to say I was not cool enough yet. Great Section of the book!!!
The characters were relatable and described good enough for at least the first book. I will not give away where the book went and is going but I can say I'm going to now buy book two because it is not available on audible. I might secretly plan a road trip and have my girlfriend read it to me while I'm driving. Please no one tell her.
The critical thinking and "natural born athlete" minded main character gave me some internal chuckles at myself since I can TOTALLY relate!

I couldn't stop! (binged quickly)
this was such a fun book to listen to!
I could not stop listening, and kept finding excuses to go on walks or continuing my walk! (because I like to listen to audiobooks when I walk)
finally it got too cold so I had to simply come inside, sit down and spend the next 75 minutes. glued to my ear buds until I finished this book.
although I just finished it a few minutes ago, I sincerely want to relisten again. there are so many awesome details that I will now. I think be able to pick up even more since I know the whole story!
