Publisher's summary

Once upon a time, waiting for the mail was filled with warm anticipation. But the suicide of the local mailman has left the residents of this tiny Arizona town shell-shocked. Nothing this bad has ever happened here. And now, there's a new mail carrier in town, one who's delivering lethal letters stuffed with icy fear. Nothing - not even the most outstanding citizens or the most secret weaknesses - is safe from the sinister power of this malicious mailman....

Good but not great

Overall this book was good, it’s worth listening to however there were a lot of slow parts. A large portion of the middle of the book really just dragged. The premise of the book is very interesting, but I think there could’ve been more interactions made between the characters during the middle of the book to keep you on edge. It was worth listening to if not just to have something to listen to while working.

Eldritch non-Euclidean mailman

The postal service has it’s own law enforcement arm and would never have allowed any of this

Now I'm scared of the mailman

Bentley Little is good at making mundane things scary. At first the mailman just seems annoying and a little eccentric but as the book progresses you really start hating this guy and by the end of the book you know he's no man, he's pure evil! A good scary read!

disturbing sexual content

Bently little has bizarre, unique stories that keep me coming back, unfortunately some of his stories contain a lot of disturbing sexual content. this was one of them

Slow going....

This was a bit of a let down for me. I thought it sounded like a great story and couldn’t wait to start it. Unfortunately, I had a hard time getting into the story and even harder time staying with it. It took a bit to get going and then seemed to go on and on. The narration was good, though. I received a review copy at my request and voluntarily reviewed.

Whoa, what?

This went really crazy fast. The story was slow, but I know from other Bentely Little books that things will get nuts. This is the first book of his I've listened to where I thought it was pretty gory. That's with any book I've read or listened to.

I liked it, but wow...very reminiscent of Needful Things, but in a totally different way.

This not for the faint of heart. Trigger alert.

Okay book.

Interesting book. It's kinda seems childish but then not. The story is good and kept my interest but the storyline was different. Not bad, just different. Ended good. It was just a strange storyline. But it's worth listening to.
