Title: Stage

Author: Justin Schorah

Narrator: Keith M. Langlotz

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 37 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-02-16

Publisher: California Times Publishing

Publisher's Summary:

An A&R hotshot fell in love with them upon hearing a few of their songs, and suddenly all the sweat and soul-draining self-promotion seemed worth it. The band got a call asking them to bring their haunting mix to Manhattan for a label showcase.

It was the break of a lifetime. And now the only thing separating them from their dreams is a thousand miles of pavement. But out of cash and desperate to make it, they set themselves on a collision course with New York. It's a decision that forces each band member to consider just how badly he wants that record deal, and what he's willing to do to get it. No one will stand in their way. Not even each other.

Extremely well written and exciting read. I was surprised ...

Extremely well written and exciting read. I was surprised how quickly I got into the story. I have a short attention span but this book kept my attention. I ended up not being able to put it down!

5 stars

These guys had the grit amongst their chaos, (and the blood) of what it really took to rock. I love the author's twist on it as I went down a path I wasn't expecting. Very unique with a lesson, and even better if you play or know someone who lives in the life of music.

Loved it, will read again

Great book; I love the tension throughout the story. Not the most unique plot, but a great writing style and relatable characters make for an absorbing book none the less.

I love rock and roll and I love a good book

I love rock and roll and I love a good book. I loved Stage! I hope this guy writes more books.

Members Reviews:

not a bad thing, unusual

Kindle Unlimited or got on freebie day depending on which story/collection. Very odd writer, not a bad thing, unusual, and for someone such as me that read, a LOT {10-20 or more book, a DAY} that's saying something. See the list of books below? That's just not a be nice and list them all, that's the list of books am reading at this sitting, pretty sure that was all of them. If I missed any or it says not verified {because no matter how many hundreds have spent over the last 3 years, plus ku, never says verified on mine unless freebie day etc} the writer can feel free to send them to me lol {serious not serious but mostly serious}. The more I read of him, the more the southern 'bless his heart' kicks in, wondering just how many times and ways that poor boy was dropped on his head, how hard, and if on purpose. Interesting reading though...because of?

Pretty heavy stuff

I am not a zombie person. The whole premise is just to nihilistic to suit me. Zombies aside, there is more to DEAD CITY than just zombies. It is rather an allegory of our times that takes in the the divisive nature of our society as is often expressed through our politics. Pretty heavy stuff!

The dividing line is not religious, nor is it nationalistic. It is much simpler. The us and them of DEAD CITY are the living and the dead... or living challenged, not all of whom are zombies. You have your everyday spirits, poltergeists, and ghouls to round out the mix.

It would seem that every major city has its own Dead City. The one here is located in London. We are given glimpses of other Dead Cities... New York and Shanghai. There are huge, physical walls that separate the unliving from the living. See what I mean about an allegory for our times? And, there are more than just walls to equate with today's dirty politics.

DEAD CITY could use a once over by a good beta reader to work out a couple of kinks here and there, but overall, it is a quick read and definitely worth a look.

I downloaded DEAD CITY from Story Cartel with the promise of a review.

Title: Spider #21 June 1935

Author: Grant Stockbridge, RadioArchives.com

Narrator: Nick Santa Maria

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 5 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-22-16

Publisher: RadioArchives.com

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Noir

Publisher's Summary:

In the gaunt desolation of those dark Kentucky hills, the Dixie Limited, crack flyer, stood gutted of all living passengers.... The Spider, the only survivor, stood alone at that bleak scene, vowing silently, solemnly, to destroy the ambition-mad arch-criminal who had plotted this wholesale ruin. For this, and manifold like disasters, were occurring everywhere in the land - at the direction, Richard Wentworth knew, of some diabolical brain, which was unleashing hordes of primitive barbarians to lay waste to civilization. But later, at the very moment when the Spider should have struck his most telling blow, he was pacing a narrow cell in the death-house at Sing Sing!

Yet there was a human side to this complex man. Consider his strange relationship with his semi-fiancée, Nita van Sloan. When he had met Nita, his life was already pledged to the service of humanity. The Spider had been a scourge of the Underworld for three full years. So he had fought against the love he knew could never reach culmination in marriage. What man could marry, have a home and children, when death and disgrace hung hourly over his head? No, he could not permit Nita to face such a possibility. He had told her that, long ago, when they found their love was stronger than the will to resist; had told her all his secret life in the hope that it might accomplish what his will had not. It had only drew Nita closer to him, and they had fought the hard way together. As Wentworth once remarked to her, "How perfectly is thy mystic karma attuned to mine!"

Nick Santa Maria reads Hordes of the Red Butcher with the crackling intensity you have come to expect of his superb talent. Originally published in The Spider magazine, June 1935.

Riepilogo Editore:

Essere paralizzati e voler vivere attraverso altri corpi. È quel che sembra intenda fare Marcello, sadico tetraplegico, quando assume alle sue dipendenze tre giovani donne perché lo portino in spalla e siano il "suo" corpo. Fisico asciutto, muta da sub e pallina in bocca gli impediranno di riconoscerle e soddisfare liberamente le sue necessità e perversioni. Un dialogo serrato con la sua dottoressa, un omicidio, un arresto ed una letale allergia alle fragole. Incorporeo è la storia di una mente troppo lucida per essere malata, dell'ossessione di un attimo, quellattimo che cambia irrimediabilmente la nostra vita.

L'opera fa parte di "Crediti d'autore" che mira a far incontrare autori ed attori under 35 e le tecniche della scrittura e della recitazione radiofoniche. Il radiodramma è stato allestito in teatro, Il FIlodrammatici di Milano, trasformato per l'occasione in uno studio di registrazione, dove il pubblico è stato dotato di cuffie e unica è stata la dimensione attorno a cui tutto è avvenuto, quella del suono.

Adattamento e regia di Sergio Ferrentino.

Four Stars

Five Stars

The best yet

I now have read and agree that the Dutch Curridge Series is a jam up and belly tight group of stories about a unscheduled sort of fellow who loves music, drinking and the right way of things. Dutch or Alvis his real name lived in the time of the blues greats and I spent a lot of my time in these books looking up the names of the great ones in Wikipedia. I loved it all and it made me very happy to be living now and have the family I do have. Thanks for a great read. I hope it is not the last we hear from Dutch Curridge!

Another great Dutch Curridge installment.

I love Tim Bryant's unique voice in these books. Enjoyed this one as much as the first two.

Publisher's Summary:

Las Vegas is a city with a past, a place where visitors dream of hitting it big. A town with a glittering strip just blocks away from its seedy underbelly. A town where those dreams are born, used up and spit out like an over-the-hill showgirl clinging to the tattered remnants of her youth. Harry is one of the dreamers, a cheat at cards who has just gotten out of prison. He's ready to find the big pay off on the strip, with a new fool-proof way to take the whales.

Entertaining but needed to be longer

Harry recently got out of prison and he has returned to his old haunts on the Las Vegas strip. Hes always been one to look for easy cash and now hes looking for a larger card game with some whales he can play against. He wont get what he came to Vegas for, but he might just get something better.

Harry took a knock to the head about three months back and since then there has been this voice. He has learned to listen to the voice, but not his innate common sense. He proceeds with his plan to cheat at cards and win big. He ends up at the elite Coffin Club with a wad of cash to buy in. There, we meet a few more characters. Mr. Cristoff Marchon runs the place. Mandy is his right hand-woman who manages the manager. David is a floor manager and his main job is to keep an eye out for cheats.

Harry is an enigmatic character. We dont know why he was in prison. The only bad thing we witness him doing is cheating at cards. He seems to have at least one friend, Mickey the bartender who we meet at the beginning of the story. Harry is out for the simple, fast solution and isnt looking to find long term work or turn socially respectable. So, honestly, Im not sure I liked this main character, but I did find him interesting.

All the other characters are pretty fleeting and by necessity are one dimensional. Theres only 1 female character, Mandy, and most of the time spent with her is discussing her looks and her sashaying hips. With a short story and a small cast, having only 1 female character is not unusual but I would have liked to have the time spent with her on her other attributes, such as her special talents.

The supernatural part of the story comes in really, really late. I had an impression going into this tale that this aspect would permeate it instead of being the final crescendo. Needless to say, the side characters with these special talents soon become interested in Harry because he appears to have his own special talent.

The ending was pretty abrupt, even as I felt it was fitting. My biggest criticism is that this story is too short. The characters needed a little more time to develop, the plot point of these supernatural talents needed more time on the page, and the ending needed more time to be dramatic and satisfying. This story has potential and I hope the author chooses to build upon what she started here.

I won a copy of this book from the author.

Narration: Chase Johnson did a decent job. He had a good voice for Harry that was full of skepticism and a disregard for authority. He made Harry believable. Later in the story, he does a passable French accent for one of the characters, and the same for the one female character.

Never Cheat A Vampire

Harry has just been released from prison and can't wait to hit the tables in Vegas. His special gifts will help him make a huge profit playing poker. He should have driven the cab... This book is great, as I've already read the ebook.

Publisher's Summary:

When I picked up Ryker in that bar, I had an endgame in mind. I'd use him to get out of the colossal mistake I'd made getting mixed up in the con at the mansion. The sex was just a spectacular perk. I got him as far as my car, heading for the border and freedom. A crash. Then blackness. I've woken with a stiff of a husband, a surly, sexy bodyguard - Ryker - and no memory of either of them. I wouldn't say I'm the type to sleep with the help, but Ryker can't keep his hands off me - and the feeling is deliciously mutual. When everything in my life feels wrong, Ryker's touch is my reality. Apparently my name is Tiffany Peterson....

Members Reviews:

Bump on the Head and Bam.....

I really enjoyed this book. The story was engaging and was cleverly written.

The Narrator really made the story come alive. She was very, very good.

It's a fun listen.
