À propos de ce contenu audio

 A young woman discovers a strange portal in her uncle’s house, leading to madness and terror in this gripping new novel from the author of the “innovative, unexpected, and absolutely chilling” (Mira Grant, Nebula Award–winning author) The Twisted Ones.

Pray they are hungry.

Kara finds the words in the mysterious bunker that she’s discovered behind a hole in the wall of her uncle’s house. Freshly divorced and living back at home, Kara now becomes obsessed with these cryptic words and starts exploring this peculiar area—only to discover that it holds portals to countless alternate realities. But these places are haunted by creatures that seem to hear thoughts…and the more one fears them, the stronger they become.

With her distinctive “delightfully fresh and subversive” (SF Bluestocking) prose and the strange, sinister wonder found in Guillermo del Toro’s Pan’s Labyrinth, The Hollow Places is another compelling and white-knuckled horror novel that you won’t be able to put down.

Commentaires

"In this gripping audiobook of cosmic horror, Hilary Huber narrates as Kara, a recently divorced 34-year-old graphic designer who returns to her small hometown. Kara lives with her Uncle Earl and helps run his business, the Glory to God Museum of Natural Wonders, Curiosities and Taxidermy. She also becomes friends with Simon, a barista at the coffee shop next door. One day, Kara and Simon find a fresh hole in one of the museum's walls, beyond which is a passageway to a mysterious, otherworldly place. Huber grounds the story with her keen characterizations of Kara and Simon, each of them imperfect, authentic, and wryly funny in their own interesting ways. Such relatable characters make the eventual encounter with Lovecraftian terrors all the more chilling."

le concept, et le traitement sont parfaits. Les personnages sont réussis. La narratrice est excellente. j'ai cependant un léger goût de pas assez car il me semble que l'histoire est trop vite et trop facilement résolue. il y avait matière à faire un récit plus long et plus développé.

Un peu court

Highly disappointing book, even though the voice actor is very good. The story started well, with the choice of the peculiar setting of the weird oddities museum but the story goes nowhere. The narrator keeps referring to Narnia, which has clearly nothing to do in terms of worldbuilding since the author isn't willing to elaborate on the Hollow world. The book leaves us with cheap thrills and no lasting memory of the story.

Pass !
