About this listen
Jonas has always been a wanderer, roaming from one corner of the world to the next in search of a purpose that has eluded him for a lifetime. But everything changes when he crosses paths with Eli, a stranger with a chilling secret.
Drawn into a world shrouded in fear and horror, Jonas is confronted with a mysterious book that holds the key to a destiny he never asked for. As the shadows close in around him, he must make a choice that will alter the course of his life, even though he doesn't fully understand the task at hand.

Bleak horror done well
The narration was creepy and set the tone for the story. It is a bleak novella, with a good pace. It's claustrophobic in a sense that for the main character, there is no escape from the horrors that await him. It gives the book a sense of hopelessness and futility, which, dare I say, I enjoyed. I liked the concept, and the character development was done in a clever way, by one character passing over their own life story to the next.
Overall, it was a really enjoyable listen. I recommend for those who like horror with depictions of demons, hell, possessions, and curses.

Can you run from your horrific destiny?
Never has the phrase "You can't run from your destiny" been more real than for Jonas after one fatal night meets Eli. Fuelled by cheap booze, Eli gives Jonas a book and a story through which Jonas' life is forever changed.
What if fate has a role for you that you never asked for and don't really want? Would you stand your ground or would you succumb to the mighty power holding you like a puppet?
The book soon reveals to be a very potent and dark artifact more alive than Jonas thought, which prompts him to go on the run, trying to avoid his supposed destiny. He soon realises that once again he's resorted to running, a grim summary of his life. Would he finally stop and start taking responsibility for his life's actions?
What a story, short but mighty! This is one of those times when a story is immensely enhanced by the narrator's performance and acting! The sound effects of the different voices by Cameron DelGrosso and their ability to change the depth of their tone were amazing!
I hope there's a sequel because that cliffhanger needs some resolution!
Thanks to the author for the opportunity to listen to it and this is my honest opinion.

Gripping!
The story was great! Well written and entertaining. The story gave me Evil Dead vibes and the narration put me in mind of Tales From the Crypt.
What an appetiser:)
