About this listen
There are new residents in the Long Island Sound… and they have a taste for flesh. The first time the creatures tasted human blood, their savagery went undetected. Thus begins Mount Misery, a terrific horror tale by writer Angelo Peluso. Located on the Long Island Sound, random attacks by unknown creatures are terrorizing local residents. The question: Who is going to do something about it? Marine biologist Katie DiNardo and ichthyologist Nick Tanner have seen the damage caused by their mystery creatures, but are at a complete loss as to the attacking species. All they know is that they need to get to the bottom of this - and fast. While they continue to do their research, people are dropping like flies, and if they don’t figure out what’s going on, there’s no saying what this destructive species will do next.
In a similar style to Jaws, Mount Misery is a spectacular suspense novel that grips you from the first page and doesn’t let its teeth out! Fans of horror will rejoice with Mount Misery, and listeners will enjoy the throwback style that made this genre what it is today.

A word of warning to all buyers
This book meanders terribly and flounders in tepid waters. The characters are the worst sort of Bobby-Sue and Mary-Sue cardboard cut outs and (spoilers) if the characters all stayed in bed then the plot of the book would have played out exactly as if they had not been in it at all.
I feel bad giving this such a bad review as this appears to be the authors' first foray into fiction but hopefully they stick to writing fishing guides.
Some of the scenes sounded as if they should have been in some sort of soft-core erotica and this is not helped by the fact that the narrator has voiced several other bodice-ripper novels, so she is obviously comfortable reading that sort of fiction.
I'm very glad I can return this book and get my credit back because it's a painful listen and I only listened to the whole thing so I could write this review.
Either avoid at all costs or play a drinking game where you take a shot every time a character says the word Fish. Believe me you'll pass out drunk in about ten minutes.

Great Monster Romp
Fantastic story that is a little slow to warm up but then real hard to put down! Shares some of the usual tropes with other, similar stories but not to a distracting degree.
I never take monster horror all that seriously, this story was entertaining and thrilling and I would listen to it again.
Narration was excellent, again a bit slow to get going but soon had me hooked.
Only negative I can say is you do have to swim through a LOT of detailed technical explanation at the start, which is what slows things down. Once you are through that, buckle up!
