Creepy for sure.

An ok story with little depth but think of the content and that becomes self-explanatory.
In the hands of Stephen King the depth would have come though, probably.
Demons of all sorts are the nightmares we have in the darkest part of the night. Suspend belief and it would be scary indeed, but keeping your belief you know at least you’ll wake from the nightmare….but to what?
Say your prayers and keep your eyes on the awaiting dawn.

The Tension Mounts To A Devastating Climax.

A young woman is violated in her own home and is left with a demonic symbol carved into her back. From this point onwards the horror is gradually ramped up for her and her friends. The great narration adds perfectly to the drama. The end provides twists and turns a plenty. A well written, engaging and satisfying listen for horror fans.

Summoning Deamons has never been so PERSONAL

If you have the capacity to believe in evil, and the supernatural then it is an easy jump to believe in The Mark, normally to raise the evil, its a book or artefact, but Lee Mountford's book he simply cuts it into you,
Te concept of this read was great, I sadly felt it was almost rushed and wanted more, perhaps a couple of Stephen King fillers would bridge the gap from The event. to finding the culprit. I was intrigued throughout,, yes the concept I liked , and the Narration By Hannibal Hills kept me focussed and into the work. I felt the book could be extended by a few hours to satisfy my thirst for blood. Jim

Another great story.

I have just finished listening to this audio book and I loved every moment of it. Yet another great, well-crafted and scary story from a brilliant author. And, as always, the narrator also does an excellent job. I would highly recommend this title, but beware, it is a scary story and not for the faint of heart!

A great creepy horror

This is the first of Lee Mountford’s work that I’ve ever read/listened to. It certainly won’t be the last!!

The Mark is a fast-paced, suspenseful horror story. L. Mountford has written The Mark in such a way that it gets you thinking as you read, it makes you pause and reflect from time to time, or at least pause and look over your shoulder. I did this more than once!!

The Mark is a creepy and unsettling read, one of the best I’ve encountered for a while. That said for me I think the book/eBook would have been better for me, why? Because I don’t feel that the narrator does the book the justice it deserves, more annoyingly I can’t quite put my finger on why I feel like this. To me, it just felt off.

But don’t let that put you off if you fancy the book. I intend to get myself a copy of the book; either in eBook or paperback; and read it myself, after I’ve read some of Lee Mountford’s other work.

The actual writing of The Mark is really good. It’s easy to see that Lee Mountford has put in effort, research, thought and emotion whilst writing this. His characters have a good level of depth and are realistic.

It’s easy to become totally immersed in the world that Lee Mountford has created, and his words grab your attention and hold you there in the thick of the plot until the very end.

Overall this is a great creepy, check over your shoulder horror book. I’m looking forward to discovering more of this authors work!

Five stars isn't enough!

What a fantastical scary story. I loved every gory, goosebump wrenching moment. I especially loved Mr Mountfords description of hell. I am certainly going to change my attitude to life, and become much more like the three wise monkeys.........

A good solid supernatural story

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

The Book

The concept of the story is good and suitably creepy, you'll find yourself turning pages quite quickly to get to the next part of the story. The swearing is a bit overused at times but otherwise it manages to set a very eerie atmosphere, the initial attack feels quite fraught and subsequent character reactions are generally realistic. The horror aspect of the story is well done and if you like a good supernatural read then this one may be for you.

The Production

Narration is clear and quality is good, the music at the beginning was suitably spooky and fitting to how i'd imagine the story should be and unlike some titles didn't continue over the start of the narration. He tries to do voices and puts a reasonable amount of emotion into the narration so it isn't completely flat, not all the voices are great but its a valiant effort.
