Publisher's Summary:
Ghostly Gay Trilogy is the story of the triumph of one man's spirit as he casts out his demons, real and imagined, and lays to rest the ghost of his lost love, learning to live again.
Life and fate have dealt Ashley Wynter a series of cruel blows. He is bereft of the job that fulfilled him and the lover who sustained him.
Summoned by a sinister anonymous message, he's lured into a twilight world of deceit, depravity, and degradation as he struggles to find out how his lover died - and why.
Members Reviews:
Very bad reader
This might just be the worst audio book of the year. The "reader" repeats lines, stumbles on words, shuffles pages and pauses in the middle of a sentence to turn the page. A total amateur production. Was the book any good? Can't say because it was impossible to finish this.
A bridged too far (and unintentionally)
The reader sounded like he was drunk or about to fall asleep. Maybe he was. Maybe he did. That would explain why there are big pieces of the story missing. Purhaps he just woke up, opened the book, and started reading where the empty Jack Daniels bottle had propped the pages open. It doesn't really matter. Frail Ashley, the main character, was so maddeningly passive and ineffective at every turn of the plot that I came to loathe him. He did everything but have the vapors. There were times when the book came quite close to seeming like an expression of internalized homophobia and gay stereotypes. It is unfortunate that while there are a lot of good gay mystery and suspense books written, somehow Here and Audible offered this to us. By the way, what does the word trilogy in the title refer to?
rotten and dull
don't get this. the story is dull and the reader is worse. I just gave up on it.
Just plain sucks!
This is horrible. I don't know what more to say about it. The narration is difficult to follow, the stories are boring. I couldn't even make it all the way through the book. Buy at your own risk.
Ghastly Flop
Would you try another book from Michel Russell and/or Peregrine Muir?
I purchased "Cry Destiny" by the same author and narrator at the same time as this story. This is the worst of the two, but not by much.
What was most disappointing about Michel Russell???s story?
There was a story? This was bad all the way around. I don't think I even made it half way through the story. It gives dumb a bad name.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Peregrine Muir?
I would cast someone with a voice for audiobooks. The readers voice quivered with age. He fumbled over words. He had length pauses while you wait for him to find the right page.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Ghostly Gay Trilogy?
If I were an editor, I would have thrown Michel Russel out of my office.
Any additional comments?
To the author, narrator, and publishing staff I am embarrassed for you. But I am sure by now you are all in other lines of work. If I didn't have to pay for this, it might have been funny to listen to segments just to hear how bad it was. It's a waste of time and money
