The Beckoning Fair One

Disorder collection

De: Dan Chaon

Narrado por: Michael Crouch

All teenagers come of age. But in this spellbinding story by the bestselling author of Ill Will, one girl’s awakening requires something special. Something strange. Then it can all work like a charm.

Ever since they were orphaned, Tyler has kept close tabs on his sister, Shannon. He has to, considering her weird and risky obsessions. Now she has a new one: an inexplicable crush on an odd-looking stranger. And what Shannon wants from her unwitting “honey boy,” Tyler can’t begin to fathom. Not until he follows his sister into the darkest corners of her desires.

The Beckoning Fair One is part of Disorder, a collection of six short stories of living nightmares, chilling visions, and uncanny imagination that explore a world losing its balance in terrifying ways. Each piece can be read or listened to in a single disorienting sitting.

Interesting little story

It starts weird, seams like a story of a stocker girl I suppose, but it evolved into something unexpected and the end was surprising.
The performance was good ( I do listen at 1.3)
Overall liked it a lot.

Wonderfully creepy

Brilliant on all levels and quite terrifying. Short and bittersweet. Both the writing and the performance were pitch perfect.

It had a twist at the end!

Narrator was great! Story was different than I expected. Great to listen to while working.

Creepy

This story was very good, but it was very creepy. I enjoyed it. There were parts I didn't fully understand.

If you wish Shirley Jackson would send us a story from the other side….

…than this is for you. A spooky, funny, chilling spell of a story. Perfectly narrated.
