About this listen

Moving to an intentional community is supposed to be a fresh start for Milo. No Internet or television. Complete isolation from the outside world. He doesn't love the idea of moving, but his brother has been in charge since their parents' accident, and Milo knows better than to question him. Besides, it's not like there's anything to stay for, not after the recent incident that got him expelled from school and made him a social pariah.

Milo is intrigued when he learns their new home was once a retreat for famous artists. He's a talented painter himself. So, when a spectral woman begins to show up whenever he's at his easel, he initially takes her for a muse. Seduced by the quality of the work they’re making, he doesn't notice the control she's gaining over him. By the time he learns her true intentions, it might be too late for him to overpower her—but if he can't find a way soon, she's going to force him to slaughter every resident of the community.

Mad As Birds is a contemporary gothic horror novel with a unique reimagining of supernatural possession.
