Tales from the Fire Zone

By: Jonathan Maberry

Narrated by: Tom Weiner

This collection of five diverse and highly entertaining short stories, straight from the ingenious imagination of New York Times best-selling author Jonathan Maberry, includes one story written exclusively for Blackstone Audio.

"Adventure of the Greenbrier Ghost"

Starring Sherlock Holmes, this tale is based on a real-life ghost story from West Virginia. The basis of the story comes from a court case in the 19th century in which the testimony of a ghost was entered into evidence, leading to the conviction of a murderer. Maberry has thrown Holmes and Watson into the mix for added punch.

"Doctor Nine"

A psychological thriller about a little girl whose imaginary friends are guiding her through the process of becoming a serial killer, this story originally appeared in the anthology Killers and has been reprinted many times.

"Like Part of the Family"

This urban noir fantasy tale introduces werewolf PI Sam Hunter.

"Property Condemned"

Set in Pine Deep, the small town featured in Ghost Road Blues, Dead Man’s Song, and Bad Moon Rising, this is a chilling psychological ghost story.

"Cooked"

An exclusive story written especially for Blackstone Audio.

Critic reviews

“Every so often you discover an author whose writing is so lyrical that it transcends mere storytelling. Jonathan Maberry is just such an author.” (Tess Gerritsen, New York Times best-selling author)

Very enjoyable

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes short stories. Quite interesting and the performance was great.

Wow!

Weird and wonderful, sometimes scary and occasionally funny. Terrifying and delightful! What more could one want?

creepy and holds attention

I loved it! the author was able to catch my attention with dark and mysterious! it takes a lot for me to want to listen to an audible verse music when I go anywhere for the simple fact I normally have others with me. That being side my niece actually likes some of the dark, creepy, and extremely gory details we love it!

interesting stories!

good listen! thanks audible for the recommendation. good work to the author and narrators! very interesting stories

Certainly worth a listen

The stories were interesting, well written, and easy to listen to. Except Property Condemned, that depressed the hell out of me. The performance was excellent. The range on that man! I thought for certain there were different narrators. I'd recommend it.
