A dejected filmmaker is asked to make a documentary about a 95-year-old billionaire. He isn't given much to go on except a childhood location and an old bottle of water.
Oh dear. This is NOT a genre I like - at all. The only reason I kept listening was because I really like Robert Petkoff, and I was too busy sewing to take the time to find another audiobook. AND, I actually kinda liked the main character . . . that is until the end. Anything else I say would be negative, so I'll end here.
Thoughts of Joy
I've only read one by this author (The Prophet). It was a decent audio, but somewhat forgettable. Think I'll skip this one.
ReplyDeleteLes ~ I really, really enjoyed The Prophet. The others I read I believe were in a series. I thought the first one was very good and the second . . . just okay. I felt like he was trying to make it like Joe Hill's Heart-Shaped Box. So, that being said, you may like it more than I did. Probably would, in fact. :)
DeleteBermudaonion ~ I didn't know how much "paranormal" would play a part, because I did know that it had some wonky component to it. It turned out to be a bit too much for me!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know there was a lot of paranormal. That would probably ruin it for me too!
ReplyDeleteStacybuckeye ~ "A lot" is subjective. It was too much for me.
