Made a Monster

A Splatterpunk Novel

By: Rob Nelson

Narrated by: Chuck Brugee

Adrian and Kendra are a match made in Hell.

Adrian's dark past left him with a twisted imagination that takes him deep into the forest where he does unspeakable things. Kendra is new to town. She has a dark secret of her own—and an unhealthy obsession with a boy she hasn't even met yet.

Until Adrian met Kendra, he had his deviant urges under control. When she comes to him for help, his capacity for violence goes beyond anything either of them could have imagined.

shocking

shocking on many levels, will leave you feeling all kinds of emotions. the gory love store is wild in both a good and depraved way. read at your own discretion.

One of the gnarliest books I’ve ever read

Seriously, it’s so dark and gross but full makes sense. It’s a grotesque splatter analysis of whether people are born the way they are… or if they can be made into a monster…

The story

This audiobook is intense in the best way.

The narration perfectly matches the brutality and madness of the story, making the horror feel immediate and immersive. This isn’t background listening you’re pulled straight into the gore, tension, and transformation. If you’re into extreme horror or splatterpunk, this is exactly the kind of audiobook that sticks with you.

Highly recommend listening with headphones… if you’re brave enough.

Made a Monster

Rob, generously, provided this book as an advanced review copy. I apologize for the delay-life, ya know. But, holy flippin crap. While there are some rough areas, this story … the lives of these people … this is an amazing debut. Gory. Gross. Engaging. Well constructed. I loved this so much that I’ve already purchased the kindle book to go along with my ARC and will probably pick up a physical copy, as well.



Updated 12/5/2025 - So, here we are once again. I have received ANOTHER freebie of the audiophile media. I waited for this for sooooo long and it, absolutely, surpassed my expectations! This was a great performance for an, equally, great debut! Rob is an author to watch and he has my support and recommendations. Thanks, man!
