Publisher's summary
Haunted by his tragic past, Jack LeBlanc, a heavily scarred introvert, finds himself volunteering for the clinical trial of a miraculous new tissue-regeneration drug nicknamed Obsidian. Jack and the other test subjects soon discover that the medication is not what was promised. They’re about to find out the hard way that the pills have nightmarish consequences and that Jack’s pained conscience isn’t the only thing with teeth.
With every pill taken, one thing becomes more clear: the path to perfection will be paved with gore. From the author behind Bad God's Tower, Writhe, and Mantis comes a truly unsettling, Cronenberg-style body horror novel that will make your skin crawl and have you questioning every pill you take.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Story
When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

Story
Narrator Dan Stevens ( Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

Loved the narration of Jake Blagburn, who brings out suspense and thrills
Jack is suffering from flashbacks from a accident four years earlier. The accident left him severely disfigured. Jack is struggling with the way he looks. He is was once a handsome, popular and confident man. When offered a chance with a clinical trial for a new drug, he grabs it with eager hands.
At the trail he meets Iris a kindred spirit in Iris. They become close.
When Jack meets the Doctor in charge of the trials for the first time, he knows the familiar face, his guilt and the thought of truly being cured, makes him stay and continue on.
Mick is part of the trial, he's wheelchair bound and also hoping to be healed. He is also Jack's friend. Mick believes some people are being given a placebo. So he decides to take matters into his own hands, the pills get into the wrong hands.
Everyone seems to be healing though, Jack seems to be getting worse. His nightmares are getting worse too, more real.
This book will have on your toes.

What would you do?
Would you undergo a completely experimental test to possibly remove any scars or ailments, even if you are completely unsure of any side effects?
In Vanity Kills, seven people said yes, yes they would. From a model with an appendectomy scar, to a paralyzed man, to a woman with a vicious scar from a hideous attack, they all agreed to be Dr. Walsh's guinea pigs. They would be paid handsomely to live in a test center for three weeks while they are given a new drug called Obsidian, a pill that comes with the promise of getting rid of any old scars and ailments.
Jack is riddled with burns from a car accident years back that killed his wife (in a rather... interesting death scene). He is extremely self conscious of these, and has found life very difficult in the time after recovery. He is desperate to get rid of them, even after seeing who was behind the study.
Does the treatment work? And if it does, at what cost?
The characterization is STRONG in Vanity Kills. It's a slow burn that doesn't really feel like one. Once you get to the true meat of the book, it's brutal and it's descriptive, and you can really see everything well in your head. And the last third of the book really hits hard when everything finally comes together.
The narrator did a fantastic job.
If you're looking for a disturbing and fascinating look into body horror, this is the book for you.

Medical Marvel?
The book was amazing. A little pill can do almost anything thanks due to modern science. A new pill on the market is to get rid of scars. Well, be careful the remedy is not worse than the original affliction. Excellent job writing the story. Excellent narration. I would love to read more by this author.

Drug trials can change your life
The author is a good storyteller. I was able to picture each scene with ease. This thriller had me cringing in several spots. I was kept guessing until the end. If you love horror books, then this is a wonderful thriller to read or listen to. Jack lost his wife in a horrific car accident when he swerved so he would not hit a dog and hit a tree. His wife was killed on impact, and he was trapped in the car on fire. He had multiple third degree burns and masses scars. He is entered into a drug trial for a medication that can reverse damage to the body, including burn scars. This drug trial will change everyone's life. The only question is, will the participants make it out alive. After listening to this story it made me look at drug trials differently.

How far would you go to fix your “flaws”
This story follows a group of people testing a miracle drug that heals all injuries and scars. If that sounds too good to be true, that’s because it probably is.
I really enjoyed this one. The narrator read a little fast, sometimes blending multiple sentences together but it was still easy to follow along.

Side Effects from Hell
A group of people undergo an experimental drug trial unaware what they are really just guinea pigs for the worst nightmare that they have ever had. This story has everything that i love in a horror novel suspense, gore, drama, horror, humor, and a little steam if you know what I mean. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves books that depi t unique horror but must be 18+. The book is absolutely phenomenal and so are the characters. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own volition.
