Publisher's summary

This compendium contains all three novels of the Pittman Family Trilogy.

Family Ties: In 1961, 10-year-old Richie met the new boy in school, Joey Pittman. A school bully brings them both together, and they soon become best friends. Joey lives with his father in his grandmother’s large, old house at the end of town. As Richie spends more and more time there, he meets the large extended Pittman family. But the Pittmans aren’t your usual family. They are very different and very dangerous. After a couple of years a suspicious incident occurs and the family disappears, Richie learns the family’s secrets. But they will follow and torment him the rest of his life.

Family Secrets: It is now 2019. Richie’s family is grown and he is living in Florida. Still in terror of the Pittmans, a chance meeting with a group of friends leads Richie to a possible way to end the family’s demented grip on his life. But his delving into their secrets has not gone unnoticed. Soon, Richie and his new friends find themselves in a deadly life and death struggle for survival.

Family Plots: More than a year later, Richie finally feels free of the viciousness of the Pittman curse. But when two well-known journalists show up at his door wanting to write a book about the infamous Pittman family, the remaining family killers return to finish their game of death for once and for all.

Decent overall story.

Kind of slow start and by the time it got going, I knew what would happen. Everything was laid out and guided to the conclusion. I did enjoy the sorry and narration. The ending left a possible sequel (which I would listen to)

I wish there was more gored detail so I could fully engulf myself. When the story had its character transition for the first time, I felt puzzled on what was happening because it was so quick and had very little transitional pose. I do say this because of my detailed nature. The book was good just missing the flair I was hoping for, be that must I’d recommend the book because I know I’m picky haha and others aren’t as meticulous

A great listen

Once again, Richard McCrohan does not disappoint his listeners. His characters might be the people living up the street from you and his settings are easily identifiable as places that might be in your neighborhood. The twists and turns kept me eagerly anticipating what was going to happen. The narrator spoke the role of each character as though he was them. I strongly recommend this audible book if you want a treat.

Totally Believable!

This book series was pretty creepy because it actually seemed totally believable. This isn’t a genre I normally listen to, but I really enjoyed it. It started out pretty normal and I kept finding myself thinking, this is it, this is where the bad stuff happens. But, it didn’t. Then the end got pretty intense, and left you wanting more. Luckily, I had the whole trilogy at once, so, I dived right in to book two. Again, there was a lot of suspense. I spent a lot of time getting nervous because I don’t really like gory stuff and I kept feeling like it was about to happen. And sometimes it did. And then, there’s book three. Oh my. That was super suspenseful! I won’t say more, because I don’t want to ruin it for you. Although I was sad about certain aspects of the ending, I was definitely satisfied with it.

As for the narrator, he was good. He had a deep voice so his female voices were a bit gruff, but I honestly didn’t even notice that until book three. He enunciates well, and shows great emotion. However, he mispronounced simple words and that really drove me crazy. Album became alblum, deprecating became depreciating, and notorious was noctorious. And that was just a small sampling of the numerously mispronounced words. And the words were mispronounced over and over again, always the same way, so it wasn’t just a moment of being tongue tied. It was weird. But not weird enough to ruin the books.

Overall, this was a great series and I would definitely listen to books by this author again.

Don't mess with the Pittmans

This trilogy starts following Richie as a young boy. He meets his childhood best friend and is accepted with his family. As he grows he starts to notice things that seem a bit odd about the family. When Richie figures out what's going on its already to late. The Pittman's are nothing to mess with!

A perfect mix of horror

Following Richie though the wrath of the Pittman's was nothing short of an excellent adventure. The characters and story were well executed and, as a horror fan, I was not left disappointed. The narrator did a great job handling the many characters. I would suggest this audiobook to any horror or fiction lover!!

A horror audiobook to love

I usually don't listen to books in this genre, however, I thought I would give this book a chance. I ended up loving it. It has an engaging storyline and fun characters. It follows the life story of Richie as he has to deal with a family that comes back to haunt him. The narration was pretty good. I'm not sure if I will stay in the horror genre but I will defiantly check out some more of Richard McCrohans work.

Great thriller!

McCrohan takes the reader on a thrilling journey spanning decades. I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of each story line. I found myself listening hours at a time!
The narration is spot on excellent. I’m not disappointed in any way!

Entertaining story!

Love that it intertwines real history with the story by using real life incidents and people. One downside to this is when the information is wrong. I would understand if they tweaked history for the sake the story but some of it was just bad editing, such as Toole being convicted of Adam Walsh’s murder. He did confess but it was never taken to trial because lack of evidence and Toole recanting his confession. There were a couple other instances like this that kind of took me out of what was otherwise a very immersive story because of the use of real history.

Killing Runs in the Family

The Pittman Family Trilogy is one sick book of epic proportions by any stretch of the imagination. The storyline is well written because it seems more factual than fiction and that what makes it intriguing and keeps you listening/reading. The Pittman's are truly a family the slays together and stays together through generations. Skyler Morgan did a phenomenal job narrating this sick story to the point he was downright chilling. I highly recommend this book if you are a fan of serial killers and psychological horror.
I received this book from the narrator at my request for free. This is my honest unbiased review that I am voluntarily leaving of my own volition.
