Highly engrossing story...awesome narration!

I love MJ Pack's writing....it never disappoints. I also love a good witch story...and this one is great. I'm only sad there isn't more of it!

meh it was OK

nothing magical happening with this story. certainly a unique story so that I really enjoyed. creepy, kind of thought provoking towards the end.

Wasn't horrible, wasn't great

The narrators voice initially was irritating but you get used to it. The story could have been better but for a short listen wasn't awful. If you like 'horror' that isn't too scary or gruesome this is a good pick. I personally like darker stories and if I were into softer horror, this would have been perfect.

The ending

What a twist!! I loved this quick read! It was the perfect in between books kinda read. A bit slow at the beginning but, overall, wonderful read!
