The day Louisiana teenager Rory Deveaux arrives in London marks a memorable occasion. For Rory, it’s the start of a new life at a London boarding school. But for many, this will be remembered as the day a series of brutal murders broke out across the city - gruesome crimes mimicking the horrific work of Jack the Ripper in the autumn of 1888. Soon “Rippermania” takes hold of modern-day London, and the police are left with few leads and no witnesses. Except one. Rory spotted the man police believe to be the prime suspect.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

A Great Spirited Sci Fi Short Story
Lonely Pines was a very cleverly written sci fi short story. R. Manolakas is a new author for me and I hope he continues writing more stories like this one. The story begins in a hospital setting then takes a chilling plot twist. The blurb gives the listener some details but for being only about a half hour in length, this story was well fleshed out. I love science fiction in small doses and this was right on. Some of the best sci fi ever written was in short stories.
Kenneth Campbell's narration was brilliant. He was the perfect reader for this story. He had an excellent approach with spot on voice inflections. I hope these two do more audiobooks together. An overall great listen.

Great entertainment
Would you consider the audio edition of Lonely Pines: A Medical Short Story Wherein the Future Rescues the Past to be better than the print version?
The audio is great. It feels more real than the printed version, because the voice of the reader is so rich and powerful. It is such a pleasure to listen to. I liked the printed version, but really enjoy the ease of an audiobook. It is so relaxing to listen, rather than read.
What did you like best about this story?
The ending. It is so uplifting. It also flows really well throughout the story.
What about Kenneth Campbell’s performance did you like?
His voice and attention to detail is superb.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I found it very enjoyable. It was moving in some parts.
Any additional comments?
I recommend it strongly. It is great.

Twilight Zone-like Story
This story could have been torn from the pages of Rod Serling's nicotine-stained notebook from 79 years ago. It had that great creepy vibe, that feeling where you want to believe, but you aren't sure if you're crazy...
If anything, my one small nitpick about this story is that the title gives too much away. As I was listening, I knew certain characters would be okay by virtue of the title, and that took away some of the suspense. But that small thing aside, the writing was great, the narration also excellent, and the story was right down my alley.
Highly recommended for people who like short stories, thrillers, and are fans of paranormal, sci-fan and the like.
I was provided with a copy of this book for an honest review.

Very short but entertaining
I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
I noticed another reviewer mentioned this, and, after listening to the story, I am inclined to agree with them. The title gives too much away. I think that is partially because it is so short. This was entertaining, though, so no big deal. It had a very Twilight Zone feel to it and I appreciated that. The narrator was decent as well.

More please!
This was one heck of a short listen and I loved it. It was predictable in that the doctor obviously survived, (I mean, how could he come back otherwise,) but I liked the whole 'Twilight Zone' feel this story had.
I didn't get to experience too much from the narrator but I liked what I did hear. All in all, it was a good listen and left me wanting more.

Time travel anyone?
It's an interesting story, a bit strange to get your mind around. A man travels into the past to save his own life. It raises so many questions in my mind and I find myself thinking around and around in circles and not going anywhere and yet it's quite interesting. It's a bit of a chicken or the egg situation.
The narration was OK, a bit stilted in the scenes where the characters are showing strong emotions, but overall OK.

Short story with a real punch
I really enjoy long fleshed out stories. This is not one. However it sounded interesting so I asked for a review copy. I am glad I did. This is a fast paced short that is just long enough to tell the story and make you think about the possible reality of the situation. And it sounded real enough to me.
Narration was excellent as well.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
