Resumen del Editor

Welcome to Hopkins Bend, the remote little Tennessee town where the backwoods inhabitants are cannibals and the local law operates a sex-trafficking ring. Unlucky travelers are frequently ensnared in the town’s sinister web. Some are held captive and tortured while others face even more gruesome fates. And beneath it all is the town’s darkest secret, the curse of the depraved and mutated Kincher clan.

Includes Depraved II: The In-Between-Quel, a short story that reveals the grisly fate of two characters from the novel. The story is as spectacularly gory as the novel itself.

That was a twisted ride

Very fast paced and all over the place, but in a good way. Good read

eh

if i discovered this when i was younger i probably would've liked it but it was kinda predictable

Wow

Dam this was a really good book, some parts were hard to listen too but I feel the narrator really sold the book. Definitely recommend this one!!

Twist after bloody twist

I have been searching for a good book for a few months now and felt like I just was not going to find a non cliche book with a new type of writing. This book far exceeded what I was looking for! It is a type of bloody horror book that strives to give plot twist and very intricate story lines not just blood and gore. I have no idea how I don't know about this writer until now but I will be seeking more of their writings.

Extreme Horror at its Best

DEPRAVED by Bryan Smith is definitely an extreme horror novel that is not for all fans of horror but for those who enjoy their horror on the extreme side, DEPRAVED is right up there with the very best. The characterization and vivid settings is what makes DEPRAVED so much better than your average extreme horror book and makes it deserving of being mentioned among the very best extreme horror novels of all time.

Enjoyable, but characters are inconsistent

Overall, the book was enjoyable and I read it completely. Some others say that Angela Rysk wasn't a good narrator. I disagree. I like her gravelly voice, and I think she did great with male characters. Minor spoiler alert! When I started seeing the inconsistent behavior of characters, my science fiction mind started thinking that maybe there was some sort of alien presence in the town that was making characters behave in odd and inconsistent ways. However, as I read more and more, I saw that I was overthinking things. In the end, it was just nothing more than plot holes and inconsistent character Behavior. Once again, spoiler alert! Take Michelle, who has been held captive for a long time, who has had her feet burned and who has not had a decent meal during her captivity. Yet, when she is released from her shackles, she is not weak. She is running around as if she has been working out for the last several months. Furthermore, she doesn't appear to exhibit any sort of traumatic stress toward Abby, who has been one of her tormentors. Instead, she takes over, and even bullies her in a way that is inconsistent with someone who has been in captivity. I could give examples about other inconsistent character behavior but in the end, the story was enjoyable if you like this sort of thing.

Great listen

Loved the story and the reader. Great pace . Would absolutely re co me nd as

Where are the other books?

I was disappointed that the rest of the series is not available. I would like to have liked to continue this series. The narrator was excellent. The story wasn’t perfect, but was entertaining enough to keep you interested.

Wrong Turn with a bit of Twilight Zone

This is a hard one for me. I wouldn't really define this as a extreme horror or a horror of any kind for that. The writing is good but that doesn't mean the story is. They are not kidding about each character was its own story that just happened to take place in the same area. I am reminded a bit of the Joker one bad day where anyone can be turned into a killer if pushed but it's just not executed well. The villains are incompetent and most of the more violent scenes are the people killing their attackers where you can almost here the author say stupid country hillbillies. it's not bad just repetitive.

Angela the narrator really carries the story. I was entertained but it's full of plot holes and simple put stupid moments. Some of the stories are better then others but none of them go anywhere. book 2 is really just the conclusion. There is some interesting violence a few sex scenes and a WTF moment (you will know when you get there). Overall if you like B rated cheesy horror books it's worth a listen I suppose.

rate

I'm just trying to give the book a rating but force to give a review now. a crazy but good ride
