Very Bad Deaths

By: Spider Robinson

Narrated by: Spider Robinson

Russell Walker retreats from the shock of his wife's death by becoming a hermit in the woods of British Columbia. There he finds himself thrust into a precarious role as intermediary between a telepath called Smelly, so sensitive he can't stand to be near most people, and Constable Hilda, a skeptical police officer who needs Smelly's insight to track down a monstrous serial killer.©2004 Spider Robinson (P)2005 Blackstone Audiobooks

My kind of tribe

I enjoyed this story and I was sorry that it ended . Like all the characters your have written about it all feels like my kind of strange and wonderful people. Thank you for journey

Spider actually scared me with this one. Intense.

Be Damned sure you're ready for a rough time. This is the rawest, darkest book I remember having ever read and I was the kid who read about Nazi Germany when I was 10.

Spider has created an antagonist so horrifying Darth, Khan, and James M would run screaming into the dark if they crossed his path. Not that they would ever get the chance.

I have faced real life monsters and bared my teeth at them. This is the first character I would rather cut my own throat with a butter knife than let face down.

Be advised.

very bad deaths

for a dark story, it was written with such humor that it was very enjoyable. the reader really brought it to life and was the main reason I enjoyed it so much.

Excellent Story!

Funny yet serious enough to be more than believable. Spider Robinson is not only a talented writer, but an amazing narrator. The character development was superb; magnitudes better than the most famous classics.

Decent book but a bit disjointed

Reading Spider is just like hanging out with an old friend. I can just easily identify with his writing style and his train of thoughts. This book started out a bit disjointed but finished strong. I enjoyed it.
