From Hell

By: Greig Beck

Narrated by: Sean Mangan

'Long is the way and hard, that out of Hell leads up to light.' – John Milton, Paradise Lost Pompeii, present day: Archaeologist Maria Monti is working at a new dig site. Like hundreds before her she is investigating the night that Vesuvius erupted, consuming the ancient city with choking ash, scalding steam and rivers of lava. But she has just unearthed something that shouldn’t be there, something that makes her question everything she knows about the disappearances of that fateful event. Several hundred miles away Alex Hunter’s family is holidaying in southern Italy when Mount Etna begins to shake, and ash begins to blanket the countryside. Figures are moving about in the smoke, hideous shapes, snatching people from the streets, and scans indicate they are being taken into the core of the erupting volcano. Hell is rising and Alex Hunter must gather a team of his most battle hardened HAWCs to take on an adversary from the very depths of hell. Nothing will stop him from rescuing Aimee and Joshua, not even the devil itself.©2019 Greig Beck (P)2019 Bolinda Publishing

Critic reviews

'Greig Beck’s latest novel, FROM HELL, is yet another explosive instalment to the Alex Hunter series. This time, Beck takes readers into the history of Pompeii, in order to stop what could very well become the next apocalypse. A thriller so extreme, it could give readers both nightmares and teary eyes. FROM HELL is the best of Beck to date, in what has to be a #1 Best-Seller!' (A. Renee Hunt, BooksBookBooks)

Big fan!

I do enjoy Greigs writing style. His character development makes the reader actually KNOW each character and care for them as if they were family. Keep it up! Now on to the next book.

Perhaps the best yet

I thoroughly enjoyed Beneath the Dark Ice, but this installment in the Alex Hunter series was just as good. With a monster similar to that found in The Siberian Incident, this book had everything I’ve come to love in Beck’s writing and then some.

Cliff hangers abound in this one, and I can’t wait for the next one...

Narrator

The narrator , Sean Mangan makes the story so full of life with the various characters.

I try and follow Sean mangan in my books

Another great installment in the Arcadian Series

As usual, an excellent installment in the series. It was good to have Matt Learned back and actually working and fighting with the HAWCs.

I am especially into Alex's son and his abilities. Iaee some great story opportunities.

ONE NOTE I you not read at least a couple on the earlier books, wait to teadf this one.

Good story, terrible performance

The story is engaging and fast paced, a quick read/listen with good character development and personalities. I mostly wanted to write this due to the performance of the narrator. Despite the fact that he sounds like he’s speaking with a bag of marbles in his mouth or half drunk, he apparently only pays attention to punctuation only half the time putting emphasis and exclamation where none exists or conversations flow without pause. This is also reflective on whoever is directing this performance. Very amateurish, very poorly produced.
