The Academy

By: Bentley Little

Narrated by: David Stifel

“Master of the macabre” Bentley Little offers a new lesson in fear with this terrifying horror novel.

With a promise of more freedom and a chance to get out from under the thumb of a reactionary school board, the teachers of Tyler High have voted to become a charter school. Instructors and parents alike are thrilled with the prospect of independence. And yet....

The formerly laid-back principal has become unusually strict. And with her toadying secretary, she seems to be running the show. That isn’t all. The janitors no longer work nights because of what they hear. The students are frightened by what they see. And things are happening on school grounds that defy rational explanation. But there is an explanation. It’s just not anything that anyone can begin to believe — or hope to survive.

Movie!!❤❤

IT'S GOTTA BE A MOVIE ❤❤❤❤
SCARY BRILLIANT!!❤❤ THE REVIEW THAT NEEDS 15 WORDS TO POST CAN F- OFF!! 🎯💯🤣🤣🤣🤣

too much of the same thing

the "evil institution" formula
is getting tiresome. The first half a dozen books with this formula were entertaining but after several they are getting so predictable that they're hard to finish. I hope that he goes a different direction something more original would be nice.

The Academy

I am a recent convert to Mr. Little’s works. I thoroughly enjoyed this audio version. My commute is so long in the morning and evening and as much as I really like to turn a page, this satisfies my needs for stories. I’ve listened to two of Mr. Little’s books so far and I’m hooked.

Why this narrator?

I'm not sure why they keep using this guy for Bentley Little books. He constantly sounds like he's half asleep and barely making through the story. The books would be more enjoyable with a different narrator. I won't purchase any more books from this author if this guy does the reading.

Very good book

I really enjoyed this one. Worth a credit.
I didn’t find the narration to be near as bad as some reviews are saying.
