Salem: Autumn Fool

Jason Crane, Book 5

By: Richard Gleaves

Narrated by: Eric Michael Summerer

Jason Crane's Salem adventure continues! Caught in the middle of a war, separated from his friends, forced to take sides between the resurrected witch judges of the Appointed and the terrible witch Legion, Jason is fugitive from the noose and from his destiny, but he can escape neither one.

The Jason Crane series is an epic Halloween chase through centuries of real history, myth, and original lore, full of ghosts, curses, witches, monsters, and all sorts of trouble for a rational teenaged hero perpetually in the middle of magical trouble.

Autumn Fool is the fifth of the series, after the Sleepy Hollow trilogy (Rise Headless and Ride, Bridge of Bones, and General of the Dead) and Jason's first Salem adventure (Blood to Drink).

Awesome Listen. Unique story.

Excellent Narrator. I enjoy the audiobook most when the narrator gives unique voices to the supporting characters, making it feel like a cast of many reading to me. There were times throughout the story where I felt exasperation towards the bumbling protagonists and their 'Gift' of making bad decisions

Another winner!

I recently finished this latest story which has me sad (because I finished it), and excited as I can't wait until the book. I have been so impressed with the series. I feel like each book gets better and better. I'm not sure what Jason and the Rogues will be dealing with next, but I will be patiently waiting for the next story.

Well crafted, intricate story line!

Quite a ride! Jason Crane doesn't disappoint in this book #5 of the series! Another well crafted, intricate story, full of well developed & interesting characters! Bravo Richard!

Amazing book

I love this series so much, yet this book exceeds all expectations. The book follows all the rogues, who are separated during parts of the book, but are very much part of the story.

The book is so action-packed yet filled with extraordinary, poignant moments.

Jason Crane finds himself in yet another supernatural escapade filled with witches, demons, magic, and comedic relief.

The new characters introduced add extra depth to the plot. Jason meets up with a new group of friends who help him out of some very tricky situations. However, he is also plagued by new, even more evil villains than in the previous books.

This book will leave you breathless and excited for more.

The performance by the narrator is amazing. By far one of his best narrations.

What an adventure!

I am such a fan of the Jason Crane series. The lore, action, and humor are all very well-balanced, and it’s and adventure that I never want to end!
