I am really looking forward to the audiobook! Ray always does a killer job with your books.

That's also my least favorite trope. I was really annoyed with a recent horror movie with that trope that is getting good reviews. I won't say which because I don't want to ruin it for folks. I'm guessing this book is one to avoid for me.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Kate. I can think of a million other things to tell you but none of it makes it any easier to bear. Condolences.

I think I read this one last year and felt the same way. It was.. fine. Wasn't impressed. In the end I was like REALLY? 🙄 the blurb about the book was more interesting than the actual book. All the characters were annoying and I would have been fine with them all dying in a fire.

I haven't listened to the audio for this one and now I think I will, thanks!

IT WAS SO BAD. I really love cosmic horror so I was really into it until the ending. A bad ending can ruin the whole thing for me.

Almost makes me want to relisten except that will piss me off so much once I notice. Fuck that.

Where did you listen to it? I don't remember AI narration. I also liked it up until the end. Wtf was that, it needed to be wrapped up!

I saw it recently recommended on a list for must read sci-fi in the last 5 years, so apparently it's seen as genre busting now, so even more folks will pick it up. I thought it was fun.

I have an update! I went looking for All These Subtle Deceits and it was hard to find. I found C.S. Humble's email on a subreddit and reached out. He sent me both books in the series! I'm thrilled and so excited to get started on them. I will definitely post reviews. Thanks again for recommending!

Thank you! I have only read one of these so far. That's exactly what I was looking for.

Totally agree with you! Very little scares me and I still love horror! For all the reasons you noted. Horror is about the content and not that I find it scary (although other people may still find it scary).

I was looking at reviews and folks seem to generally agree it ended rather abruptly?

There's also a paperback version, is it widely available? (Retailers other than Amazon?)
Also curious, do you plan to add an audio version? I'd be interested in it.
