About this listen

From the minds of multi-million selling suspense authors Frank Peretti and Ted Dekker comes House, an epic supernatural thriller that gives a new meaning to the phrase "haunted house". In rural Alabama, two couples find themselves in a fight for survival. Running from a maniac bent on killing them, they flee deep into the woods. They seek refuge in an old house that's been vacated for years, or so they think.

They soon discover that others are dwelling in the lower level of the house, and they don't take kindly to visitors. With danger present in the house, they try to leave, but the house won't let them. Worse, they soon realize the killer has purposely lured them to this house. As they huddle around an old fireplace, a tin can falls through the chimney. Scrawled on its side is a message from the killer: He claims to have killed God and now demands more dead bodies. The characters come to realize that the house, while real, mirrors their own heart and soul, and unless each can defeat the evil within, the evil in the house will surely claim them. House is a modern tale that will have readers searching their own spiritual pulse long after they reach the last page.

What is real? The suspense will keep you guessing

Where does House rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

A must read for all those who love interpersonal relationships,major suspense and questioning of ones beliefs. The book leaves you wanting more just like SHADE of Gray; of course completely different agenda .

What other book might you compare House to and why?

I would recommend any of Frank Peretti's books.

Which scene was your favorite?

How does a state police man fit into a hotel/motel run by less than hospitable owners.

Just Okay

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Listening to the story served its function--it kept me awake while driving---but I was a bit disappointed. I normally really enjoy audio books and I've devoured books by both Peretti (This Present Darkness & Piercing the Darkness) and Dekker (The Circle Series) and read them more than once but this one just didn't measure up to my expectations of either author. The story held my attention but didn't capture it. Peretti's narration was mediocre and didn't help my overall impression. This audio book is not a waste of time but neither is it time well-spent.

Would you be willing to try another book from Frank Peretti and Ted Dekker ? Why or why not?

Yes because I know them to both be great authors. I don't think this is their best work but they've earned another opportunity from me through their previous individual efforts.

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

I think Peretti's pace was okay but his own voice and the voices he gave to the characters just didn't match up to what one can expect from an actor...and many other authors.

Could you see House being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

A movie has been made. I haven't seen it yet but will watch it at least to see how the pictures in my mind compare and contrast to those of the director.

Any additional comments?

I hope my opinions are helpful to others.

Keep shoe on your toes. Even scary at times. Don't want to stop listening to it. Can't miss what's going to happen next.

Scary and Mindboggling!

Where does House rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

In the top 5 of Horror/Thriller

What was one of the most memorable moments of House?

When all the characters in the book met each other's double and they were trying to figure out which were the good ones and which group was the evil ones. The scene was great!

What about Frank Peretti and Ted Dekker ’s performance did you like?

The change of their voices to suit the different characters in the story line

Who was the most memorable character of House and why?

I enjoy everyone of them because each character had a specific roll and the author did an excellent job of giving each one of them a plot to keep the story thrilling and on the edge of my seat.

Any additional comments?

I read this book many years ago and I continued to hunt for it until I finally found it on audible books. I am looking forward to reading "listening" to it again.

Engaging Listen

I prefer to hear an author read his/her book, and House is a prime example of taking a work to the next level. Frank Peretti brings the characters to life with true vocal animation that takes the guesswork out of imagining the characters??? subtleties.

Good Story, ANNOYING VOICES!!!

I love Ted Dekker books, and I was hoping I would love this one too. But unfortunately, that wasn't the case with this book. The biggest issue was the voice narration! Especially for the women in the story! It got so bad at times that I would have to stop listening to it because I would get a headache! I like Rob Lamont's voice. I think this book needs to be redone with him as the narrator reading the unabridged version. Sorry Frank, but have you even listened to what your voices are like for this book?

Another thing that was bothersome was that the story could get kinda/really confusing at times...and it doesn't help when the voices are annoying! Sometimes I would have to rewind parts of the story just to try to figure out what was going on!

I think this story would be great if it was unabridged and narrated with great voices.

good book

I've listened to a lot of books and this book kept my interest and was suspenseful, and I thought the narration was awesome comparable to the best narrators I've heard, listen to a sample and decide for yourself, the only thing I have against this book, it is abridged, I would suggest you wait for the unabridged version.

Great suspenseful Christian read.

I enjoyed the suspense. I was just as blind as the characters about the house until the end.
