Library Journal praises NARCISSUS

Library Journal Narcissus Review

Library Journal recently published their review of Adam Godfrey‘s Narcissus audiobook. The audiobook was narrated by the award-winning Elisabeth Rodgers.

Read the full review below, or on Library Journal’s website:

A group of four American tourists vacationing in Greece encounter a sinister subterranean pool, unleashing a horror like no other. The pool is rumored to be the same one that ensnared the demigod Narcissus, who fell in love with his own image and wasted away until he met his end. After the friends emerge from the subterranean cavern, they are plagued by unsettling visions. Their own reflections become menacing—beckoning, stalking, and inflicting unspeakable violence. The members of their group are picked off one by one; soon, only Liam and Kate are left. They take every precaution to avoid their reflections, but it hardly seems enough when faced with a terror that can reach them almost anywhere.

Elisabeth Rodgers narrates, bringing a delicious note of dread to her performance. Her pacing is impeccable, balancing taut tension with visceral descriptions of the awful (and fantastically creative) deaths that befall the characters.

VERDICT Godfrey’s latest blends horror, myth, and thriller in an unputdownable listen. A winner for fans of dread-filled novels like Christina Henry’s The Ghost Tree or Cassandra Khaw’s Nothing but Blackened Teeth. —Sarah Hashimoto
