About this listen
The most controversial work by New York Times best-selling author Piers Anthony.
Killing children is an ugly business, but the alternative is so much uglier. Abner Slate just watched his five-year-old daughter Olive kill his wife and son. Olive is a sopath. Born without souls, sopaths are children who will lie, cheat, rape, and murder to get what they want. There's one in every family these days, destroying America's heartland from within. After murdering his daughter in self-defense, Abner is taken in by a secret network of sopath victims called Pariah. Through Pariah, he meets other sopath victims who band together to form a temporary nuclear family. But the sopath threat is getting worse, and soon their quaint little neighborhood is overrun by murderous, drug-running children. Now, on a mission for Pariah, Abner and his makeshift family must travel across the country to a mysterious town that contains a secret powerful enough to stop the sopath crisis. Instead, they find the most seductive and ruthless sopath of all. Her name is Autopsy, and she would like to add Abner to her slave collection. The old morality is dead. Now the sopaths will stalk the Earth.

This is just child porn. badly written child porn
I feel really bad for A.T Chandler who had to narrate this heaping pile of muck. From the very moment the book starts you cannot stop to question its badly written worldbuilding. apparently there exists souls, and we're running out. the main character Abner (whos so sexy guys, trust me. every woman wants him because he's just so god damn sexy. even kids!) just takes this very little known fact face value when confronted that his daughter is one of those children who were born without a soul, called a sopath.
laughable and badly written throughout, which is bad, but at the very least funny. The last half part of the book seems to just have been an excuse to write childporn. the concept of evil children without souls is an interesting fun premise, absolutely ruined by the fact that Piers Anthony thinks that this concept stretches nothing further beyond sexual favours and murder. emphasis on the former. Even worse is that the character seems to struggle with his ability to resist the sexual advances put on him, and that his wife and kids are pretty much fine with that fact, even encouraging him at points to have sex with a sopath seven year old who is so in love with Abner (because he's just so god damn sexy). at least it was mercifully short, but i will be trading this back. dont read, or do but you're warned.
