It was 1970 in a defeated Rhode Island fishing town. Vietnam and Nixon dominated the national news. Both the near and distant future looked bleak. But they were five inseparable high school friends with something incredible in common: an unwavering resolve to look after each other no matter what hell life threw at them. And they were on a mission. The plan was simple: Go off the grid before they turned 18 to avoid the draft. They’d sell some grass, stack some cash, then head west and start a commune. What could possibly go wrong?

I had to buy this as soon as Amazon notified me!!
LOVED IT. Totally relatable to what goes on in my own head. I've been binging on ALL of Jon Athan's since discovering him last year!! Not for easily offended people, although I'd say this is one of his less gory books. More please!!

Very intense painful suspense
From the notes from the author after the book ends, he talks about this being his first published novella, and a few years ago, he went back to it to rewrite it and bring the story closer to his present standards, extend it, and give it the extra polish. And I didn't know it was his first story he released, which is a good way to start with his books.
This is very much a revenge story, and I wasn't too sure what to expect, what do these 5 challenges entail. I'll say that it's very creative, it goes places that I wasn't expecting, and the author does know just where the line is and how close to the edge he should go. It's not a splatter gore fest, I mean you can't finish 5 challenges if you're dead, that would be a bad plan. What it does is very painful and outright disgusting. I mean it's not as gross out as The Slob by Aron Beauregard, but it's still shocking and revolting.
The book really kept me interested, especially to keep listening to find out what's next and what exactly this 5 and final challenge is, what's the end game of this grueling night of punishment? I was kept in suspense to the very end.
As for the narration, the narrator has a very professional voice, in a way almost a little too sophisticated sounding to talk about all the bodily fluids and bullying cringe stories, but he does a great job, it's what you get when you hire a seasoned professional who will read anything you put to page.
