About this listen
Jack Sparks died while writing this book. This is the account of his final days.
In 2014, Jack Sparks - the controversial pop culture journalist - died in mysterious circumstances. To his fans, Jack was a fearless rebel; to his detractors, he was a talentless hack. Either way, his death came as a shock to everyone.
It was no secret that Jack had been researching the occult for his new book. He'd already triggered a furious Twitter storm by mocking an exorcism he witnessed in rural Italy. Then there was that video: 40 seconds of chilling footage that Jack repeatedly claimed was not of his making, yet it was posted from his own YouTube account.
Nobody knew what happened to Jack in the days that followed - until now. This book, compiled from the files found after his death, reveals the chilling details of Jack's final hours. Listen and decide for yourself what really happened to the notorious Jack Sparks - in this razor-sharp tale about the dangers of mocking what you don't believe....

Excellent horror/comedy.
Well written and preformed. I can’t say too much as it will spoil what the author is trying to do here but listened to this in basically one hit over a cold stormy weekend. Was not disappointed.

Darkly humorous
I've only started listening to audiobooks, but this has been the BEST audiobook I've heard! Arnopp creates a riveting tale or mysteries upon mysteries, and draws them to a satisfying and thrilling conclusion. What made this novel special for me was how polished the narration was. Joe Jameson is incredibly talented in using his voice to construct dynamic and wildly different characters. As Jack Sparks, he draws listeners into a tale of unreliable narration by a character who is morally corrupt, and yet, we still sympathize with him.

Clever cliff hanger
This author, Jason Arnopp, is a clever writer but I won't go into why, it just surprised me the way this story came together. His main character is painfully arrogant and that is just another testament to his writing. Alister was just as annoying but I think that was unintentional. The story is funny, smart, interesting and at times, terrifying.

Outstanding!
I almost always start my reviews by explaining that I consume a crazy amount of horror and have done so for about 40 years now. This review, is clearly no exception to that rule.
Keeping that in mind, I had heard some great things about this story and am very pleased to say that not only did it live up to those expectations, it surpassed them. You’ll form a love / hate relationship with with Jack; his character really is something else.
I thought the story was dragging on a little about half through but it’s all necessary and makes sense later in the book. I’m not one for spoilers but I will say that the reveal in this story is one of the best I’ve read and has had me thinking about it long after finishing the book. A tale far from the usual gruesome splatter punk I normally read these days but one so refreshingly original that I feel the need to give it no less than top marks. And a solid 5/5 for the narrator who is one of the best that I have heard since listening to audio books. The way he captures the different characters was truly remarkable. Enjoy.
