About this listen

All towns have secrets. But none like Netherwell Bay....

"Sis, I’m in trouble. Real trouble. And I need help."

After receiving a worrying message from her estranged brother, Beth Davis sets out to find and help him, ending up in the strange, coastal town of Netherwell Bay.

There, she begins to witness terrifying and unexplainable things, and reports of ritualistic murders have the town panicked.

A sinister cult soon makes its presence known, and the dark history of Netherwell Bay is unveiled. Beth then finds herself in a race against time to stop a doorway to Hell from opening...permanently.

The Netherwell Horror is a Lovecraftian mystery that quickly descends into madness, sickening violence, and chaos. Fans of Silent Hill will love this nightmarish tale, but those of a squeamish disposition need not apply....

I love lee mountford books, how ever I found my self getting quite bored half way though. Good but not his best.

Good

I enjoyed the previous books by this author, but this is no where near the standard or quality of previous writings and even the narrator seems to enjoy taking the mickey by his massively over dramatized delivery. Overly cliched. Not good enough.

Very disappointing.

Really struggled with the performers attempt to voice the characters. Very slow, and gave the characters no charisma. Had to endure to the end to be honest.

Struggled

Minor Spoilers.
So I chose this book as it refers to it's style as Lovecraft and Silent Hill, two things I love. It has some good beasties and ok gore, albeit lacking style or originality, but it's issues are sadly many.
For one, the story is silly. Aside from how the story tells of a monster attach 50 years ago when many people were eaten, it seems nothing happened after this. No police investigation, no news across the world and throughout history of a town where monsters ate half the populace, nothing.
Next is this exact scene. It's told as a man recounting a story, yet it is described in acute detail as of happening then, and not via a presented memory.
Then we have the overall story, with the most vacuous explanation I've read in years where the big reveal is 'oh it was that person you never met and we've not even me ruined before but yeah, that'll explain it all'.
And finally, it has the single most weird price of rulebreaking I've experienced ever on a book. A character meets someone and we hear their reaction. Then the narration describes the scene but personalised the description by saying 'They looked like a Dark *** Priest '. alA neutral, non existent story narrative cannot use adjectives!
Aside from the writing, the narrator, while certainly trying, is a terrible choice.When 95% of the book is from the perspective of a female, why use a male narrator who can't pull off a female voice without making her sound as dumb as a log? I'm not sure if it's the accent or the way he enunciates, but she sounds perpetually whiny, confused and stupid which really detracts from the story.
So, to summarise in one short line. The story's bad, the writing weird and the narration poor sonId say avoid this one.

Mediocre story & bad narration.
