MIDNIGHT IN SILVERTON: AMERICAN GOTHIC
by Adam Copeland
Narrated by: Scarlett Quinn
Production by: Adam Copeland
Surreal Mixed with Intrigue!
Imagine being forced to work in a career that destroys you with each breath you take but you endure so that you can do what you want. You go home and hope for the best only to discover one really cannot go home again. Instead of peace and comfort, you find mayhem in the form of a serial killer, dead bodies, bikers, visions, and more.
Adam Copeland, the author, carefully constructs a story that combines surreal with suspense. He challenges the audience to deduce each person's action and the protagonist's visions. Each character is carefully built, vividly described, and folded into the story deliberately. The author keeps the audience spellbound waiting for the next plot twist. Copeland is deliberate and methodical when it comes to weaving a plot twist. The dialogue is authentic sounding including the inner monologues the protagonist has with his visions.
The narrator, Scarlett Quinn delivers a solid performance enhancing the mystery and suspense smoothly. She spoke smoothly and kept the story moving forward with inflections of her voice. She spoke clearly and with a strong steady cadence.
Overall, this is an excellent book, one that will keep you spellbound until the end. A couple of chapters into the book, I found that it reminded me of Ulysses by James Joyce but more modern and intriguing.
There were no issues with the production or quality of this audiobook.
