Evocative And Intriguing

What did you love best about Touch?

I think what I enjoyed most about the product as a whole was the world it established. It felt very much in that 'Repent, Harlequin! Said The Ticktockman' sort of vein and I loved that.

What did you like best about this story?

What I liked best about this story was the movement of the characters through it. As a narrative piece it's so lyrical and the crux of it being physical contact treated as such a euphoric thing when one is deprived of it, it really makes one think about how much we take it for granted.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Evan Harris?

Not especially. The audio quality was sub-par and the reading not particularly interesting. But when it hits, it hits well, and it does pick up over time.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes. It continued to build and build into a magnificent story that I would love to see performed on stage. Sign me up for tickets immediately!

Publisher's Summary:

Dave, a serial killer, is tortured by memories of his lost love, Mya and by his obsession for the beauties of life. In 1997, he travels to East Texas with ill intentions for a priest responsible for the relocation of clergy guilty of child molestation. Kidnapping the guilty priest he nicknames "Judas," he persuades him through threats and a hollow promise to help him locate and punish the deviant priests, thus avenging the innocents who could not defend themselves.

Dave's recklessness leads them on a convoluted journey across the country. As Dave drags Judas to what he feels is their final destiny, these two drastically different individuals begin to see they are more alike than not. Dave appears to be imprisoned in his past, as he claws away at his present. Judas thought he was at peace with his past actions, only to discover through his conversations with Dave that he is just as tortured.

An unlikely pact develops between the serial killer and the priest. Haunted by the loves and sins of one another's pasts, the two form a strange bond as their personalities dangerously influence one another.

Members Reviews:

Purgatory is a fresh take on a murder mystery

I really enjoyed all aspects of this story from the well written story itself with fresh curves and surprises where one might predict the typical.

I found myself visualizing the story as I would watch a film.

Purgatory maintained my attention and focus throughout leaving me wanting more. This trilogy definitely has the makings of a best seller!

Escape reality into a greater reality!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. It is a wonderful literary and auditory experience.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favorite character was Dave. Even though he is a serial killer he still has so much humanity. It forced me to think of other people and society being fragmented in the same way.

Which scene was your favorite?

My favorite scenes were the Dave and Father Abramo segments. They were both disturbing and heartbreaking. And, ultimately, extremely illuminating.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I wasnt expecting to. However, after I began listening I couldnt pull myself away until it was finished.

Any additional comments?

As someone with a background in religion and who has followed church corruption for many years, I was very curious and partially skeptical before I listened to this book. To say that I was pleasantly surprised is an understatement. What J. Costa has created with this book is nothing short of monumental. As the listener I felt that I was living a segment of Dave, and Judas violent and darkly humorous life in the present, while simultaneously reliving Daves lovely AND dark past with Mya and Abramo. Costa has been incredibly artful with his writing, narration and acting abilities bringing to life a cast of characters experiencing their world with realism that I have yet to see and/or hear elsewhere.

Get Ready To Change The Way You Think

Would you listen to Purgatory again? Why?

I would and have listened to Purgatory several times.This is a very psychologically provocative work.

Members Reviews:

great narration, weak story

Great narration and impressive voice changes for each individual character. Audible breaths during non-dialogue portions were slightly distracting. Disjointed writing and mediocre story sounds more like a school project than a polished piece ready to publish.
