À propos de cet audio

When a young woman clears out her deceased grandmother’s home in rural North Carolina, she finds long-hidden secrets about a strange colony of beings in the woods in this chilling novel that comes across like The Blair Witch Project meets The Andy Griffith Show.

When Mouse’s dad asks her to clean out her dead grandmother's house, she says yes. After all, how bad could it be?

Answer: pretty bad. Grandma was a hoarder, and her house is stuffed with useless rubbish. That would be horrific enough, but there’s more - Mouse stumbles across her step-grandfather’s journal, which at first seems to be filled with nonsensical rants...until Mouse encounters some of the terrifying things he described for herself.

Alone in the woods with her dog, Mouse finds herself face-to-face with a series of impossible terrors - because sometimes, the things that go bump in the night are real, and they’re looking for you. And if she doesn’t face them head-on, she might not survive to tell the tale.

From Hugo Award-winning author Ursula Vernon, writing as T. Kingfisher, The Twisted Ones is a gripping, terrifying tale bound to keep you up all night - from both fear and anticipation of what happens next.

In this standalone, T. Kingfisher explores what happens when a simple house cleaning turns into a mysterious adventure in an eerie forest.

As with all T. Kingfisher novels, this was a brilliant mix of humor and horror. Mouse is easy to relate to, just an ordinary woman trying to do her best in a truly extraordinary situation. She is funny, earnest, and utterly devoted to her dog, who is a very good dog indeed. The side characters, especially Foxy, are quirky and easy to care about, which is important when things start going sideways.

As far as the plot and horrors, it was all well balanced. Mouse acts the way I would expect anyone in her situation to act, and there is little she can do in the face of some truly horrific sights. It creates an atmosphere of tension and drama, and I really didn’t know how she was going to solve everything.

It was a mysterious story with a great main character and some inventive horror elements, and I’d recommend it to anyone who likes books set in a spooky forest!

Spooky and Fun

Not a bad listen, but story was somewhat predictable. It was a good listen for a drive around town while my baby slept!

There are aspects I liked about this story like the main protagonist and the relationship she has with her dog, but ultimately no surprises were surprising and the climax was underwhelming. I spent so long waiting for "the good part" and it never felt like it happened. I would like something more complex and ironically more "twisty" next time.

Intriguing in the beginning but as I learned more I was less impressed. interesting and unique story, I haven't read anything like it before.

Meh

I loved the performance- Foxy was my fave. However I found the story super confusing at the end & lacking something in regards to the mystery part. Anyway great performance

I struggled to finish this book. I found it boring and slow. The narration was good though.

Horror is not a genre I typically read but Kingfisher was becoming a new favourite author of mine so I was curious.

And this one does not disappoint if you are a fan of Kingfishers other work I feel like you like this one. The banter between characters and how likable the main character was is what kept me reading. A solid 5/5 read for any fans of Kingfisher

Great Horror without being too serious
