A gripping literary horror novel about the death of a haunted town

On winter solstice, the birds disappeared, and the mist arrived.

The inhabitants of Nebulah quickly learn not to venture out after dark. But it is hard to stay indoors: Cabin fever sets in, and the mist can be beguiling too.

Eventually only six remain. Like the rest of the townspeople, Pete has nowhere else to go. After he rescues a stranded psychic from a terrible fate, he’s given a warning: He will be dead by solstice unless he leaves town - soon.

Read this in book form and when I saw it was included decided to try it out as an audio book. Great performance, great story. Well worth a lesson especially while still included.

Brilliant

I have to admit I had no expectations of this story. It was suggested to me and was included in my membership so thought why not? I was hooked pretty much instantly, the ever looming presence of "the mist" kept me listening and played on my mind throughout, picturing different versions of it and its capability of manipulation and horrific injury. Definitely worth the listen!

Brilliant freebie!

I thought that the idea behind this story was great and had real promise. However unfortunately the other stuff, I suppose the character development was not for me. There was just too much back story and the whole thing kept going off in tangents making me loose the will to listen………..and then the kicker for me were the dogs. I find that if an author is going to put a dog in a novel and then the dog does not make it to the end then its a cheap hit in the feels! If an author cannot make me feel anything for the characters and is aware that they have gone of track so does for an animal to get it going again then its a no from me.

The fact that half of this story was unnecessary (for me) it detracted from what could have been a really atmospheric, claustrophobic ghost story, in the end I did not care whether the main character made it or not, and, unlike me after I was aware that the dog was going to get it…again…i skipped to the last chapter as I just wanted the book to be over.

If you like to hear the thoughts of a well developed set of characters and to be fair the book is well written the this book is for you, however if you prefer things to the point with all the information in the present then I would give this a miss. Sorry author I am aware that you can not please all the people all of the time.

Good story idea.

Narrated with an Aussie accent true to the setting of the story this was a delight to listen to. The story puts me in mind of ‘I am Legend’ or ‘Z for Zachariah’ and kept me guessing the whole way through. Will they survive? Will the mists be defeated? Will Pete reconcile with his daughter? Truly an excellent listen
