Grant Narrated by: Travis Baldree This is an audible book I requested and the review is voluntary. This is a good fantasy/horror book about started out slow but did pick up. I like the premise of the story. The narrator of the story was very good and helped the book a lot. I might have given it a lower rating if I had just read it myself. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
"We've all seen them - the broken-down car by the side of the road, mutely signaling for help from passing drivers ... the stubborn tail-gater who follows too close, for too long ... the wild driver who weaves through lanes on a crowded highway - the driver who causes accidents but is never a victim of one..." "These are the jackals, hunters who follow the nation's highways and byways, preying on the weak and unsuspecting. The jackals are human enough - except for a strangeness about their eyes, and the way their laughter lingers in the night air - but they have no mercy." "Jim Scott's been hunting jackals for some time now. They took someone he loved, once, and he's never forgiven them. And he's never loved again. Love makes you vulnerable." "But love isn't predictable, and when beautiful, battered Rachel turns up on Jim Scott's doorstep with a tale that can only mean she barely escaped a hunting pack, Jim finds that the barricades he built around his heart are not impregnable." "The jackals have come in force for their final showdown with Jim Scott. But Jim no longer fights alone - he leads a group of jackal-killers, each determined to exterminate the hunters or die trying."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

I would have gone for four stars if Grant had spent a little more time on characters, like he usually does, but instead he goes for the full speed ahead plot. You don’t really get attached to the victims/protagonists as much as you usually do in a Grant story. The ending was a little disappointing; not bad just ho-hum. ( )
