Resumen del Editor
A criminal mastermind creates violent tableaus in abandoned Detroit warehouses in Lauren Beukes's new genre-bending novel of suspense.
Detective Gabriella Versado has seen a lot of bodies. But this one is unique even by Detroit's standards: half boy, half deer, somehow fused together. As stranger and more disturbing bodies are discovered, how can the city hold on to a reality that is already tearing at its seams?
If you're Detective Versado's geeky teenage daughter, Layla, you commence a dangerous flirtation with a potential predator online. If you're desperate freelance journalist Jonno, you do whatever it takes to get the exclusive on a horrific story. If you're Thomas Keen, known on the street as TK, you'll do what you can to keep your homeless family safe - and find the monster who is possessed by the dream of violently remaking the world.
If Lauren Beukes's internationally best-selling The Shining Girls was a time-jumping thrill ride through the past, her Broken Monsters is a genre-redefining thriller about broken cities, broken dreams, and broken people trying to put themselves back together again.

Nora Lopez is 17 during the infamous New York summer of 1977, when the city is besieged by arson, a massive blackout, and a serial killer named Son of Sam who shoots young women on the streets.

All Nora wants is to turn 17 and be on her own.

You might want to change yours. You may not want to know about the things you'll read on these pages, about the sauce, about Korrok, about the invasion, and the future. But it's too late. You touched the book. You're in the game. You're under the eye. The only defense is knowledge. You need to read this book, to the end. Even the part with the bratwurst. Why?

Jo’s obsession with one mythical object, the “dreamworm”—which she believed enabled travel to other worlds—led to their estrangement. Now, suddenly, Jo is dead. And in packing up her home, Bridge finds a strange device buried deep in Jo’s freezer: the dreamworm. Against all odds, it actually can open the door—to all other realities, and to all other versions of herself, too.

Historia
Angela and Terry return home after several grueling months of filming the popular television show, Let's Switch Houses!, only to find their residence in ruin. Sure, the décor and framed photographs are the same; the color of the walls hasn't changed; the furniture sits unmoved. But something is off. Their quiet New Jersey home feels tainted. Angela can sense it. Crawling inside her. Infecting her mind. Poisoning her thoughts. Then the nightmares begin. Awful, lucid visions that cause her to question her own reality.

Bridget Kittinger has always been paralyzed by choices. It has a lot to do with growing up in the long shadow of her mother, Jo, a troubled neuroscientist. Jo’s obsession with one mythical object, the “dreamworm”—which she believed enabled travel to other worlds—led to their estrangement. Now, suddenly, Jo is dead. And in packing up her home, Bridge finds a strange device buried deep in Jo’s freezer: the dreamworm. Against all odds, it actually can open the door—to all other realities, and to all other versions of herself, too.

One dusty postwar summer in his home of rural Warwickshire, he is called to a patient at Hundreds Hall.

A disappointing mashup
Rather than being a 'genre-redefining thriller", Broken Monsters is a combination of police procedural/serial killer thriller and supernatural horror tale. The problem is these elements are barely integrated so the story builds as one type of tale, ends as another and the climax ends up feeling distinctly at odds with what preceded it. Rather than being a surprising twist, it felt false.
To be fair, there are a few hints that the story could go in the direction it eventually does but the ideas aren't unified in a satisfying way and the novel left me disappointed.
On the plus side, it is an interesting, if ultimately not quite satisfying story and Lauren Beukes can write. The characterization is solid and the narration is superb.

Creepy Fun
The story builds nicely, swerving from police procedural to dark urban fantasy.. The Detroit setting is vivid. The social media angle is reasonably fresh, wedding cyberpunk to Lovecraft. Vocal performances are compelling.

I know it's interesting to me when the story enters my head a couple of times in my work day. I think I really like the multiple narrators for different story lines!

Another masterpiece
Broken Monsters is another masterpiece by Lauren Beukes. I have been entranced by everything I have read/listened to that this author has created. The narrators were amazing, the story was crazy and compelling and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. Highly enjoyed and recommend!

It was a compelling idea for a story, but it dragged on for about 6 hours too long.

I didn't know what I was going to think about this book because I did read some reviews on it, but I'm very glad that I did read it. It was very good and very well written. I look forward to reading more books by this author.

A Darker form of "Crash"
What did you love best about Broken Monsters?
I enjoyed how several individual, unlikely characters came together in this disturbing story.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Broken Monsters?
The antagonist expresses his creative side in quite a morbid way. It's not your typical cop-hunts-down-murderer mystery. You are aware of the killer the entire time and, in an odd way, root for him. The darker side of humanity is expressed through this engaging story.
What about the narrators’s performance did you like?
I truly appreciate books with multiple narrators!

enthralling
this is how you do characters. this is how you present a killer. this is how you capture nuance. i enjoyed this book very much. the only issue i had was how the supernatual element came in: it wasnt there at all, then came all at once at the end, but this was a slight hiccup that does not preclude a 5 star rating. very good readers, great audio experience. loved it.
