This was a solid story

I really enjoyed the representation present in this book. The characters were relatable and made solid choices. I did feel the story was a little rushed, but overall it's a solid and quick listen

Aliens meet Appalachia

This was my second book of Jason's (though it's my first solo book, the other was a collaboration), and it won't be my last!

Don't Look In The Trees follows Billy and Justin as they're heading to Justin's home in the woods after a bonfire party. Before they leave, a warning pops up on the television: get somewhere safe, don't go outside. Something unknown and strange is happening in the area.

They start the trek home with their friend Billy, but they come across a tree that has fallen on the only road leading there. As they start to work on the trees, they're met with the reason for the warning, and it's more terrifying than they could have ever imagined.

I enjoyed this one, and the narration by Joe Hempel was amazing (as always), but I really wish it was longer. Once it ended, it ENDED. Boom. Here's the climax, and then ope, it's over with a short explanation of what happened afterwards. I liked the characters and the relationships, it just felt like it was missing something.

All in all, a great story!

Creepy!

Super creepy end of the world story, This is a quick listen with great narration.

Wow! so much more than meets the eye.

This is a story of acceptance wrapped neatly inside of a creature feature! look past the other worldly visitors and you'll see another story entirely.

Entertaining short story

Interesting concept for an invasion story and what tactics aliens may utilize to win the war
