About this listen
Welcome to the Black Mountain Camp for Boys!
Summer, 1989. It is a time for splashing in the lake and exploring the wilderness, for nine teenagers to bond together and create friendships that could last the rest of their lives.
But among this group there is a young man with a secret—a secret that, in this time and place, is unthinkable to his peers.
When the others discover the truth, it will change each of them forever. They will all have blood on their hands.
Odd Man Out is a heart-wrenching tale of bullies and bigotry, a story that explores what happens when good people don't stand up for what's right. It is a tale of how far we have come...and how far we still have left to go.

Story
Three low-income families have been given a handsome retainer to join Geraldine Borden for a day at her cliffside estate. All the parents must do to collect the rest of their money is allow their children to test out the revolutionary playground equipment Geraldine has been working on for decades. But there’s a reason the structures in the bowels of her gothic castle have taken so long to develop—they were never meant to see the light of day.

Angela has everything she thought she ever wanted—a successful husband, a lavish house, and a bottomless fortune. But the sight of a strange man in a grocery store one night reawakens her dormant sexuality, and soon Angela embarks on a dangerous descent into the world of underground pornography and back-alley plastic surgery. As the stakes get higher, long-buried memories resurface, and Angela finds herself enamored with Reena, a fetish film performer.

Story
First they feasted on farm animals. Then they found humans.... A little girl was dead, attacked, and mutilated by some things, creatures of nightmare that were spreading outward like the Black Death, stripping the entire town bare of life. The death toll mounted, with bodies maimed or ripped to shreds, and thousands cowered in the shadows, hiding fearfully from the death out of the skies, the millions of sucking probosci eagerly reaching out for the attack.

I personally know what it’s like to have someone you care about being brutally bullied for being who they are. As early as 5 years old, I have been sticking up for my brother and fighting for him. I remember throwing a rock at some boy’s forehead for making my brother cry.
At that age I didn’t know my brother was gay. I just knew he was my brother and I love him!
I would never ever be able to sit on the sidelines and watch as someone bullied him! NEVER!
This story is very brutal but we need stories like these. They can educate people on what to do or what not to do. It’s heartbreaking to read so please, beware.
This is my third James Newman book and he has not disappointed. And the audiobook was done right!
Thanks to Encyclopocalypse Publications I was able to listen to the audiobook of ODD MAN OUT by James Newman and narrated by Curtis Michael Holland.
I’m an avid audiobook listener and I have an appreciation for the production process and the voice actors behind the narration.
Reading books are awesome, of course, but sometimes it’s more convenient to listen to an audiobook. I actually get more emotional listening to an audiobook, especially when it’s done right! All it takes is a great story being read by a great narrator!
Ohhh…man!!! This one hurt like a mother….

“Odd Man Out”, by James Newman, is a coming of age novella about hatred and intolerance. This fast-paced novella tackles a horrific subject.
A group of male teens are part of a focus group at Black Mountain Camp. Boys will be boys, especially when they are left with minimal supervision. When a discovery is made that one boy is different, chaos happens.
“Odd Man Out” is a highly emotional story. It was hard to get through the violence and bullying. The subject may yet deliver a powerful message.
Gut wrenching novella
