Great Story and Narration

This is another great novella from Holly Knightley! Holly does a great job establishing setting and the characters in a relatively short format. Hitch was a great character! I love the elements of humor injected into the story as well. Her twist endings might just be my favorite part of her books.

Jason Markiewitz is an excellent narrator. I always enjoy listening to him.

I was gifted this copy by the author but would gladly pay the list price. Totally worth a listen!

Loved the novella, now I love the audio version!

Great narration! The narrator brought the spooky story to life! Great job. This storyline moves quick and reminds me of old Hitchcock and Twilight Zone episodes. Around 2 hours of listening time, perfect for listening to around the house or while getting errands done- made my tasks fly by as I focused on the story!

Spooky suspense

This was such a great spooky listen for me! The narrator did such an amazing job at putting me right in the story. It was the perfect amount of suspense, and I didn’t see the twist coming!
I received this audiobook for free and am voluntarily leaving this review. Thank you Holley Knightley!

Great Reading of an Excellent Book

Through the use of voice inflections. the narrator enhanced an already intriguing story by adding to personality of each character. And, The Killing Tree's author expertly spun a tale of strained familial relationships into one of understanding and acceptance. The combined effort of an energetic narrator and a highly skilled writer make for an evening of fine entertainment.

Supernatural Sensation!!

The Killing Tree brought forth a suspenseful story that kept me engaged right up until the very end. Knightley did a phenomenal job of intertwining allusions that connect the reader even more. About thirty minutes in, I grasped onto the Bradbury essence she invoked in this story. Bradbury would be proud!! As I was listening to Markiewitz's telling of the tale, I was mesmerized by his voice where I felt as I was being pulled into the story. I highly recommend to read and to listen to The Killing Tree. You will not be disappointed!!

A tree with haunting secrets

Received as an audio copy from the narrator to review, this is an honest review. Beautifully performed by Jason Markiewitz, The Killing Tree may be a quick read or listen but is emotionally complex for this gnarly tree that stands within Knox Lansbury's family tree farm looks at would be more fitting in a decrepit cemetery. Haunted by the death of his brother in a moment anger, Knox believes he caused Lincoln to die by a tree; with his friend Hitch's help investigate what exactly this weird tree is. The secrets both uncover goes far beyond an ancient tree but become much more personal for Knox than he could have thought.


Highly recommended.

Mystery, Suspense, and a Narration That Delivers

This was an enjoyable listen! It had me on the edge of my seat, eagerly wondering what the tree was all about and what it might do next. The narrator delivered a wonderfully suspenseful vibe that fit the story perfectly. Overall, it was a thrilling and satisfying short listen!
