About This Audiobook

In What Vengeance Comes, Anthony M. Strong weaves a gripping narrative that masterfully blends the eerie atmosphere of the Southern United States with the unsettling undertones of the occult. The story follows Detective John Decker, a man haunted by his family's dark legacy, as he accepts a position as the town sheriff in his sleepy hometown. Strong's vivid descriptions transport listeners to the sweltering summer nights and the crumbling mansions of the Deep South, where the veil between reality and the unknown begins to blur.

Dalan Decker's narration brings this foreboding tale to life with a measured intensity that perfectly captures the character's introspective nature. Decker's smooth, resonant voice navigates the darker moments with ease, imbuing the narrative with a sense of gravitas that complements Strong's writing style. The production quality is polished, with sound design that effectively amplifies the sense of foreboding and unease, drawing listeners into the heart of this occult-infused horror story.

What sets this audiobook apart is its thoughtful exploration of themes such as trauma, family secrets, and the corrosive power of vengeance. Strong's writing raises vital questions about the nature of evil and the ways in which it can manifest in the most ordinary-seeming lives.

Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

I approached What Vengeance Comes with a mix of trepidation and curiosity, eager to see how Anthony M. Strong would balance the Southern Gothic atmosphere with the supernatural elements that have become a hallmark of the horror genre. From the opening pages, I was drawn into the dark world that Strong has created, where the past and present collide in a maelstrom of violence and terror. Dalan Decker's narration is a key factor in the audiobook's success, bringing a level of emotional depth to John Decker's character that's all too rare in horror fiction. However, at times the pacing feels a tad sluggish, dragging the listener through some of the more introspective sections – while these moments are undeniably crucial to the overall narrative, they can feel a little too drawn out. Still, these are minor quibbles in what is otherwise a masterful performance from Strong and Decker. What Vengeance Comes is a gripping, unnerving listen that will appeal to fans of atmospheric horror and occult-infused fiction. Strong's writing is razor-sharp, and Decker's narration brings the story to life with a level of emotional nuance that's all too rare in the genre.
