Summary

It started out as a simple drive down a country road. Oh sure, Hillman was thinking about suicide. Oh sure, the dead woman is in his back seat was goading him on. What was the point? Why bother living? Who am I?

It turns out Coyote has something to say about that. Coyote...and a troll.

"Trolling Lures is a campfire tale on speed, a heady cocktail of remorse, discovery and the quest for redemption, couched in equal parts bedtime story and fever dream. It is surrealism personified, and if you're into that sort of thing, Vernon has a treat for you." (Dark Scribe Magazine)

"The story is wild; creatures and Gods make appearances along with reanimated corpses. Animals, real and Gods make appearances along with reanimated corpses. Animals, real and imagined engage in violence that is horrific but serves the plot well. The story comes across as if told by a dying man hallucinating on morphine, think Alice in Wonderland as enhanced by Timothy Leary." (Horrorworld)

"If Harlan Ellison, Richard Matheson and Robert Bloch had a three-way sex romp in a hot tub, and then a team of scientists came in and filtered out the water and mixed the leftover DNA into a test tube, the resulting genetic experiment would most likely grow up into Steve Vernon." (Bookgasm)

Surreal but ok tale.

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

The Book

Much like others of Vernon's work the writing is pretty full on with dead people, bodily functions and graphic detail. It's all a bit surreal in many ways but if you stick with it then it's an ok short-ish tale.


The Production

The narrator read well and did some good voices and some less so good, but generally I couldn't complain at all as it was easy to listen to.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
