About this listen
Something is preying on Arcadia Falls.
A horror story from the multi-award-winning author of the Stage 3 Series and Gaia's Game, Ken Stark.
The first boy vanished without a trace and with just as little fanfare.
Even the second disappearance amounted to little more than a few passing remarks and another name skipped over in the classroom roll call.
As far as Riverside High and the rest of Arcadia Falls were concerned, it seemed as if nothing had happened at all.
Tyler John was no different.
He had barely given the matter a second thought.
But then a wrong turn sent him on a path straight into the dark heart of the mystery.
And the deeper he peered into the shadows, the more he realized that something was looking back.
Now, the hunter has become the hunted and time is running out.
With nowhere else to turn, it's up to Tyler and his handful of friends to stop the evil thing that's been preying on Arcadia Falls. If they fail, they might just be the next ones to vanish.
Yes, something is desperately wrong in Arcadia Falls...
And it's like nothing anyone has ever seen before.

Story
Peaceful suburbia on Poplar Street in Wentworth, Ohio, takes a turn for the ugly when four vans containing armed "regulators" terrorize the street's residents, cold-bloodedly killing anyone foolish enough to step outside their homes. Houses mysteriously transform into log cabins, and the street now ends in what looks like a child's hand-drawn Western landscape. Masterminding this sudden onslaught is the evil creature Tak, who has taken over the body of an autistic eight-year-old boy, Seth Garin.

Story
I was 12-years-old when the world ended. For eight years I've survived in this sh*thole once known as Earth, fighting the alien parasite that mutated most of the population into bloodthirsty freaks while the rest of us became the lunch special on their alien menu. Now things are changing, and not for the better. The parasite is evolving, becoming smarter, stronger, and deadlier. They've already stolen everything from me - my home, my family, even the man I loved. It's time for this bullsh*t to end once and for all.

Gabriel Delling might call himself a professional con artist, but when walking superstitions start trying to bite his face off, his charm is shockingly unhelpful. It turns out living nightmares almost never appreciate a good joke. Together with a succubus who insists on constantly saving his life, Gabe desperately tries to survive a new reality that suddenly features demons, legends, and a giant locust named Dale - all of whom pretty much hate his guts. And when an ancient horror comes hunting for a spirit locked in his head, Gabe finds himself faced with the excruciating choice between death...or becoming some kind of freaking hero.

In the blink of an eye, everyone disappears. Gone. Except for the young. There are teens, but not one single adult. Just as suddenly, there are no phones, no Internet, no television. No way to get help. And no way to figure out what's happened. Hunger threatens. Bullies rule. A sinister creature lurks. Animals are mutating. And the teens themselves are changing, developing new talents - unimaginable, dangerous, deadly powers - that grow stronger by the day. It's a terrifying new world.

True Fear inducing Horror
In the small town of Arcadia Falls children are missing. No one seems to notice or care. Until a group of young adults makes an earth-shattering and horrifying discovery! Now it is up to them to solve the mystery, defeat the evil, and make the town remember the lost ones.
Ken Stark, the author, weaves a horror-filled story that makes every parent shudder in fear. Carefully building the story, Stark tantalizes the listener with vague hints at the danger to come. Vivid descriptions and strong characters make the story flow seamlessly. Although this is a young adult novel, Stark captures the imagination of all ages!
The narrator, Brian T. Schultz delivers a strong performance with unique voices for each character. He captures the personality of each character and projects it with enthusiasm and clarity. I enjoy Brian Schultz’s portrayal of each character and his steady cadence.
Arcadia Falls will tickle your parental fears as well as keep you engaged from beginning to end. If you want nightmares, this is the perfect book for them.
There were no issues with the sound or quality of this audiobook, it was well done.

Complete Dissappointment
How this book got such high reviews is beyond me. First, the narrator is so bad that it detracts from any of the content that may have been good. I know horror is not meant to be believable but to make it good there has to be some content to relate to. I read reviews talking about the book being terrifying. There was literally nothing scary about this book. I wish I would have got my money back early. iIf you want something scary and even remotely relatable, read by a decent narrator stay away from this book.
