About this listen
Adam Nevill's The Ritual meets Liane Moriarty's Big Little Lies in this atmospheric Gothic literary horror.
Ten years ago, four young men shot some elk and then went on with their lives. It happens every year; it's been happening forever; it's the way it's always been. But this time it's different.
Ten years after that fateful hunt, these men are being stalked themselves. Soaked with a powerful Gothic atmosphere, the endless expanses of the landscape press down on these men - and their children - as the ferocious spirit comes for them one at a time.
The Only Good Indians charts nature's revenge on a lost generation that maybe never had a chance. Cleaved to their heritage, these parents, husbands, sons and Indians, men live on the fringes of a society that has rejected them, refusing to challenge their exile to limbo.

"The Only Good Indians has it all: style, elevation, reality, the unreal, revenge, warmth, freezing cold, and even some slashing. In other words, the book is made up of everything Stephen Graham Jones seemingly explores and, in turn, everything the rest of us want to explore with him." (Josh Malerman, author of Bird Box)

A shocking but emotionally-powerful novel
An amazing and shocking horror story, so powerful and emotionally-resonant it had me in tears at the end. Read wonderfully by Shaun Taylor-Corbett.

The only horror book to bring me to tears

Seemed all over the place
Felt like I had missed other books before reading it. Weird side stories that tried to make me connect with people that just died off quickly after a huge build up or the voice actor didn't really add much. the change in chapters sometimes weird odd and quick. Weird angry elk on the hunt while we suddenly cheer for a new protagonist who loves basketball wtf

Great horror story, something different
Great story over all and pretty creepy and gruesome. Story felt a little all over the place at times with the characters and setting changes which makes it hard to understand where/what your listening to but once you click on its fantastically executed.

Concept good. Story and Delivery Fail
I like the idea of this but it was written badly . To me it was like 4 short stories attempted to be linked together. this alowed for plot holes so large I couldn't forgive. also the basketball story line took way too much time. I think its important to get a new perspective. This had a message to get across but due to the writing it was lost.

Confusing, not scary, poorly written and way too much basketball
Well this was a big disappointment. I wanted to like it, and listened to the end but it was overall confusing there were so many plot points that just made no sense or were not explained at all.
Really uneven pacing.
Also all of the characters were pretty unlikeable or just uninteresting.
And why did every character love basketball. Is that the only sport they learn on the reservation? Maybe it was a cultural thing I don’t know about but it was just so much about basketball… which is not horror.
