“This is totally, brilliantly original.” —Stephen King

“HEX is creepy and gripping and original, sure to be one of the top horror novels of 2016.” —George R.R. Martin

The English language debut of the bestselling Dutch novel, Hex, from Thomas Olde Heuvelt--a Hugo and World Fantasy award nominated talent to watch

Whoever is born here, is doomed to stay 'til death. Whoever settles, never leaves.

Welcome to Black Spring, the seemingly picturesque Hudson Valley town haunted by the Black Rock Witch, a seventeenth century woman whose eyes and mouth are sewn shut. Muzzled, she walks the streets and enters homes at will. She stands next to children's bed for nights on end. Everybody knows that her eyes may never be opened or the consequences will be too terrible to bear.

The elders of Black Spring have virtually quarantined the town by using high-tech surveillance to prevent their curse from spreading. Frustrated with being kept in lockdown, the town's teenagers decide to break their strict regulations and go viral with the haunting. But, in so doing, they send the town spiraling into dark, medieval practices of the distant past.

This chilling audiobook heralds the arrival of an exciting new voice in mainstream horror and dark fantasy.

Der Sprecher hat leider eine monotone und gleichmütige Sprachmelodie und spricht alle Frauen, als wenn sie degeneriert, dumm, nicht relevant wären. Der Autor mag auch keine Frauen, was zum Ende hin grotesk freudianische Ausmaße annimmt. Das Ende ist leider auch echt das größte Problem des Buches, neben den allesamt total irrationalen und unsympathischen Charakteren. Schade.

Sehr gute Idee, spannende Umsetzung, blödes Ende

The book reminded me of King's "Pet cemetery ", "It" and "Carrie". The ending is open, many reviewers didn't like it. I think it's perfect the way it is, because it does not demystify the setting, and thats what mistery is all about. The book is a fun ride. After you are through, the open ending keeps you engaged. I, for example, keep thinking and reinterpretating. Also the beginning is not slow because the author drags the story, it is needed for the horrors to unfold later on. It is also a book that touches societal questions, so it's a serious book in that way.

Like S. King but different and new.

I really suffered with the characters and couldn't stop listening to the ending, which really made me imagine so many dark places of the human mind.

Well done.

The best book I listened to this year. Haunting, creative, sometimes hilarious and tragic. Listening to this in public will test your ability to control the emotions showing on your face.

A captivating wild ride

After about a third the chapters started to feel to long, like all those words did not move the plot forwarded. Also, the sentences felt predictable.
There more the story progressed the less I could understand the characters and their choices.
The beginning had captured my interest enough to make me want to know the end. But it was hard and I felt more and more disconnected.
Lots of bad things happened and I really didn't care about any of those people suffering or dying.
And in the end I didn't even like the ending.

Liked the beginning, struggled to finish
