Historia
The living dead are more alive than ever! Zombies have become more than an iconic monster for the 21st century: They are now a phenomenon constantly revealing as much about ourselves - and our fascination with death, resurrection, and survival - as our love for the supernatural or post-apocalyptic speculation. Our most imaginative literary minds have been devoured by these incredible creatures and produced exciting, insightful, and unflinching new works of zombie fiction.

In the blink of an eye, everyone disappears. Gone. Except for the young. There are teens, but not one single adult. Just as suddenly, there are no phones, no Internet, no television. No way to get help. And no way to figure out what's happened. Hunger threatens. Bullies rule. A sinister creature lurks. Animals are mutating. And the teens themselves are changing, developing new talents - unimaginable, dangerous, deadly powers - that grow stronger by the day. It's a terrifying new world.

Historia
In AD 1119, a group of nine crusaders became known as the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon - a militant monastic order charged with protecting pilgrims and caravans traveling on the roads to and from the Holy Land. In time, the Knights Templar would grow in power and, ultimately, be laid low. But a small offshoot of the Templars endure and have returned to the order's original mission: to defend the roads of the world and guard those who travel on them.

Elena Michaels is the world’s only female werewolf. And she’s tired of it. Tired of a life spent hiding and protecting, a life where her most important job is hunting down rogue werewolves. Tired of a world that not only accepts the worst in her–her temper, her violence—but requires it. Worst of all, she realizes she’s growing content with that life, with being that person.

When police chief Nathan Slaughter settles in the tiny mountain community of Potter’s Field, Wyoming, his most fervent prayer is that he has left behind him forever the nightmare he barely survived on a blizzardy night in Detroit. But nothing prepares him for the greater sanity-threatening nightmare he is about to confront. Beginning with the discovery of mutilated cattle on outlying ranches, Slaughter is drawn deeper and deeper into a vortex of terror as animals become savage and children go insane, trapping the entire town in a frenzy of violence. As Slaughter races against time to expose the horrifying secret behind the increasingly savage attacks, he also struggles to overcome his deepest fears.

Moving from Boston to remote Bearkill, Maine, isn't homicide cop Lizzie Snow's idea of a step up. But breaking away from tragedy and personal betrayal is at least a step in the right direction. Her dead sister's fate still torments her, as does her long-missing niece's disappearance. The town is full of people who see everything, say little, and know more than they'll share with an outsider.

Twisted horror tales
The Tightening Spiral is a book full of abnormally twisted horror tales. They are creepy and just straight out yikes. The tales are very descriptive and well written. The narrator Jennifer truly did a spectacular job. I highly recommend this book if you love twisted horror stories.

Great collection
Lots of variety that gives you a good sample of the authors work
I could recommend this solely on the story end of days about a attack on the US that turns adults into mutants
The rest of the stories are icing on the cake
Well narrated with interesting concepts I would also suggest picking up her other audiobook Latham’s landing

Clever and Original
This clever and original set of stories range in length from micro to short novella. All fit in the horror genre, though the novella also has elements of science fiction. I thought Fournier was an excellent narrator.

Solid Anthology
This is an entertaining and eclectic selection of very short, short fiction. The variety of settings and characters and plots keeps things interesting without seeming rehashed and the horror while not beating you over the head is still ever present. The narration is great as well giving the stories extra dimension.

A decent collection of short stories
I like collections because I can take them in little bites during my day. Unfortunately, they're also usually filled with a mix of hits and misses. That's no different here, but the overall trend was positive.
The last story is not only longer, but is also a two-parter that tackles the zombie apocalypse from a different angle. I enjoyed it, though sort of like the stories before it, it felt unpolished and rushed. I think it would make a great novella.
Overall, a decent collection of stories. I think with some editing/polishing, some of them can be even greater.
I was provided this audiobook free of charge in exchange for my honest review.

A Spiral of Stories
** This Audiobook was provided to me for free, in exchange for my personal honest review **
The Tightening Spiral was definitely an interesting listen. For a collection of short stories, many of the ideas presented were really interesting and some memorable. I really thought the prison story was pretty interesting. However, with my 3 star review for story, a lot of these stories don't really flesh out a lot of little details that would really drive home the impact of the "horror/dark short story" genre. Like the mailing story early on or the computer killer story; it has an interesting premise, but a little more fleshing out would go the real distance to making it memorable.
As for Jennifer's narration. She did a good job all around. I personally would like for Jennifer to try out experimenting with more character voices to add to her collection, but overall it was fine. For her Narration, I really didn't feel the dark fiction or almost-horror like elements that we're presented in some of the stories. I didn't feel some of the emotions presented in some of the characters at some key moments in many stories.
Overall it was a good listen. I'd definitely recommend this audiobook. Great job Tara Fox Hall and Jennifer Fournier. I look forward to seeing the both of you grow in your respective professions!

Interesting Collection
I love short stories, especially when they come in batches. I think this is the largest batch I’ve ever read/listen to by the same author. On that note, I had several issues with some of these stories. I felt some were too short. Some I had to relisten to in an attempt to figure out what was going on (I don’t like having to do that) or I was left with questions (which is bad, in my opinion, for a short story) or there were questionable parts that didn’t make sense to me. The majority, I felt, didn’t have enough detail or action to really pull me in. So, the story began, it ended, and I simply moved on to the next one. I don’t think they weren’t developed enough to allow a connection to be made between reader and character. So I was left feeling no real emotion for the story which is sad in of itself when obviously the author wants the reader to feel something. Only a few of the stories did I actually like or deem entertaining. Those included: “Grandma’s House, Cat’s Cry, The Tunnel, The Second Floor,” the story about the cricket, and “The Memory of Trees.” The rest of the stories I would have given a 1 or 2. That’s not good given there were around thirty different stories.
I wasn’t a fan of the narrator. Right off she reminded me of a primary school teacher. I could easily imagine her sitting on a little chair surrounded by a group of kids reading them a story. I’m not sure if it was the writing style (per the amateurish-sounding dialogue that went with some of the stories) or the narrator herself, but for some of the stories, she came off as sounding very robotic while reading, while other times, she sounded more natural. If she tried more character voices that would be great too.
I received a free audiobook copy in exchange for an honest review.
