About this listen

"The book offers a different experience from the film since it can obviously go into much more detail," says Rob Zombie. "The book and the film really complement each other."

From the singular mind of horror maestro Rob Zombie comes a chilling plunge into a nightmare world where evil runs in the blood....

The Lords of Salem Heidi Hawthorne is a 37-year-old FM radio DJ and a recovering drug addict. Struggling with her newfound sobriety and creeping depression, Heidi suddenly receives an anonymous gift at the station-a mysteriously shaped wooden box branded with a strange symbol. Inside the box is a promotional record for a band that identifies themselves only as The Lords. There is no other information.

She decides to play it on the radio show as a joke, and the moment she does, horrible things begin to happen. The strange music awakens something evil in the town. Soon enough, terrifying murders begin to happen all around Heidi. Who are The Lords? What do they want?

As old bloodlines are awakened and the bodies start to pile up, only one thing seems certain: All hell is about to break loose.

A better story

Loved the story, delves more deeply into characters and changes to deliver a more interesting story. The symbolism remains but it isn’t obscured by the sometimes whimsical style of Zombie in film.

I really enjoyed this, the reading is competent if not exceptional. Warm voice which loses a bit too when reading male characters she tries to imitate to the detriment of the storytelling. Besides that she delivers a credible performance.

Overall I finished the book faster than most as it was an entertaining and interesting story- which in spite of what the director of the film has said - could have made for a better, less convoluted film without affecting its length
