Acerca de esta escucha
In the latest from Shirley Jackson and Bram Stoker Award-winning author of THE DEVIL TAKES YOU HOME, a group of five teenage boys in Puerto Rico seek vengeance after one of their mothers is murdered; a Latinx STAND BY ME with a haunted, obsidianly dark heart.
For childhood friends Gabe, Xavier, Tavo, Paul, and Bimbo, death has always been close. Hurricanes. Car accidents. Gang violence. Suicide. Estamos rodeados de fantasmas was Gabe’s grandmother’s refrain. We are surrounded by ghosts. But this time is different. Bimbo's mom has been shot dead. We’re gonna kill the guys who killed her Bimbo swears. And they all agree.
Feral with grief, Bimbo has become unrecognizable, taking no prisoners in his search for names. Soon, they learn Maria was gunned down by guys working for the drug kingpin of Puerto Rico. No one has ever gone up against him and survived. As the boys strategize, a storm gathers far from the coast. Hurricanes are known to carry evil spirits in their currents and bring them ashore, spirits which impose their own order.
Blurring the boundaries between myth, mysticism, and the grim realities of our world, House of Bone and Rain is a harrowing coming of age story; a doomed tale of devotion, the afterlife of violence, and what rolls in on the tide.

Historia
A skeleton crew of desperate men looks to capitalize on a handsome reward offered by an eerie outsider. But when they brave the harsh winter waters to transport an ominous crate, their food supply mysteriously spoils, forcing them to stray off course. After several weeks of dead winds, absent sunlight, and diminishing rations the crew begins to question their faith and each other. As past lives of the crew are put on the chopping block, blood begins to spill. Has starvation driven them to delirium? Have they fallen out of the Lord's good graces?

Historia
Welcome to Argentina and the fascinating, frightening, fantastical imagination of Mariana Enriquez. In twelve spellbinding new stories, Enriquez writes about ordinary people, especially women, whose lives turn inside out when they encounter terror, the surreal, and the supernatural. A neighborhood nuisanced by ghosts, a family whose faces melt away, a faded hotel haunted by a girl who dissolved in the water tank on the roof, a riverbank populated by birds that used to be women.

Noah Fairchild has been losing his formerly polite Southern parents to far-right cable news for years, so when his mother leaves him a voicemail warning him that the “Great Reckoning” is here, he assumes it’s related to one of the many conspiracy theories she believes in. But when his own phone calls go unanswered, Noah makes the long drive from Brooklyn to Richmond, Virginia. There, he discovers his childhood home in shambles, a fridge full of spoiled food, and his parents locked in a terrifying trance-like state in front of the TV.

Buried in debt due to his young daughter’s illness, his marriage at the brink, Mario reluctantly takes a job as a hitman, surprising himself with his proclivity for violence. After tragedy destroys the life he knew, Mario agrees to one final job: Hijack a cartel’s cash shipment before it reaches Mexico. Along with an old friend and a cartel-insider named Juanca, Mario sets off on the near-suicidal mission, which will leave him with either a cool $200,000 or a bullet in the skull. But the path to reward or ruin is never as straight as it seems.

Far too expensive for them to afford, Kim and Eddie make an offer anyway...and score the deal of a lifetime. The house is suddenly theirs, and Kim sees it as destiny.

Enforcer and drug dealer Fernando has seen better days. On his way home from work, some heavily-tattooed gangsters throw him in the back of a car and take him to an abandoned house, where they saw off his friend's head and feed the kid's fingers to...something. Their message is clear: this is their territory, now. But Fernando isn't put down that easily. Using the assistance of a Santeria priestess, an insane Puerto Rican pop sensation, a very human dog, and a Russian hitman, he'll build the courage (and firepower) he'll need to fight a gangbanger who's a bit more than human....

The three Maxwell siblings keep their distance from the lily-white gated enclave outside Dallas where they grew up. When their family moved there, they were the only Black family in the neighborhood. The neighbors acted nice enough, but right away bad things, scary things—the strange and the unexplainable—began to happen in their house. Maybe it was some cosmic trial, a demonic rite of passage into the upper-middle class. Whatever it was, the Maxwells, steered by their formidable mother, stayed put, unwilling to abandon their home, terrors and trauma be damned.

Caught up with the alluring Asa Jackson, a notorious drug trafficker, Sloan has finally found a lifeline to cling to, even if it’s meant compromising her morals.

But as Sloan became emotionally and economically reliant on him, he in turn developed a disturbing obsession with her—one that becomes increasingly dangerous every day.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

After tragedy destroys the life he knew, Mario agrees to one final job: Hijack a cartel’s cash shipment before it reaches Mexico. Along with an old friend and a cartel-insider named Juanca, Mario sets off on the near-suicidal mission, which will leave him with either a cool $200,000 or a bullet in the skull.

The neighbors acted nice enough, but right away bad things, scary things—the strange and the unexplainable—began to happen in their house. Maybe it was some cosmic trial, a demonic rite of passage into the upper-middle class. Whatever it was, the Maxwells, steered by their formidable mother, stayed put, unwilling to abandon their home, terrors and trauma be damned.

Wounds is a confounding, strange, and utterly entrancing collection of six stories, including one new novella from Shirley Jackson Award-winning author Nathan Ballingrud. From the eerie dread descending upon a New Orleans dive bartender after a cell phone is left behind in a rollicking bar fight in The Visible Filth to the search for the map of hell in “The Butcher’s Table”, Ballingrud’s beautifully crafted stories are riveting in their quietly terrifying depictions of the murky line between the known and the unknown.

I stumbled upon this after an NPR interview and jumped in sight unseen. What a great listen. The characters are so heartfelt, even in the midst of violence and tragedy. And the twists I didn't see coming kept me hooked till the very end.

Revenge is the most beautiful destructive ballet
This book should be adapted into a tv series it’s honestly epic! Fully immersive in the storm. No one is coming to help, it’s up to this group of friends to avenge the death of one of their mothers. I love the narrator and the prose of Gabino Inglesias! It’s hard to describe this book so you should just read it because you’ll love it too! Highly recommend!

Another great horror novel from Gambino Iglesias!
Iglasias is a master at the making us empathize with his characters taking a dark path. Set against a hurricane in PR, this noir story keeps us engaged through each twist and turn. Highly recommend!

Fantástico!
I liked how the character development of the protagonist developed and how he interacted with his best friends. There were wins and losses. Surprises and predictable outcomes. The undercurrent of island mystery was really interesting, and played a major part in the story.

Great story - bad narration
I want to revisit this book in print. I loved the interplay of the mystical/noir elements in the backdrop of Hurricane Maria. However, the narrator chose to play one of the main characters in such a way that his voice would crack every time he played him (which was half the book) and it took me out of the story.

A horrific yet satisfying return to PR.
I loved this book! This was my first Gabino story and it didn’t disappoint. This story offers a tasty mix of horror, weird, crime, action, and cultural reflection. Having spent a lot of time in Old San Juan over the past few decades, I loved going back despite the horrific circumstances of this story. Gabino brings PR to life for his readers, showing the island and its culture for what it is: simultaneously beautiful and terrifying.
I didn’t expect our waterborne friends. But I appreciate them having spent many years at sea, much of it around PR. I can imagine those reefs birthing their horrors…
I recommend the audiobook above other formats. The narration brings the culture to life and helps non-Spanish speakers naturally navigate the beauty of the language woven throughout the book.

Such a well packed revenge story
Knew I wanted to get to this while it was still new. After reading The Devil Takes You Home and getting a feel for the author, that desire only went up. Also nicely fit as a Hispanic Heritage Month read!
This is a revenge story like no other. A group of friends seek revenge after one of their mothers is murdered. These childhood friends stick together no matter how dark and dangerous things become. No matter how many twists or lies become uncovered. As I am coming to gather is the author’s signature, this book is anything but just a revenge story. Multilayered and devastating, their devotion to each other will have you recalling childhood friendships that seemed so unbreakable, and have you thankful things never came to this.
One thing that seems a constant, is that no matter where the author takes us—in this case Puerto Rico—his writing has this razor sharp edge to it, that is both poetic and devastating. As with his other novel I’ve read, this book has huge dialogue sections mixed with Spanish and no translation. This unerring stance is his stamp of authenticity that will keep me coming back for years to come. I do not speak Spanish, and as I was listening to the audio while working, I am not in the camp of people translating for themselves as they read. Especially as I do not have any text. I just love this idea that there’s three experiences out there for every book he writes. No translations, translations while reading, and Spanish speaking. The fact that I can find so much to enjoy while not knowing chunks of dialogue is such a success to me, and makes me want to experience it in other ways.
And as these friends get deeper and deeper into this revenge plot, the further they’re forced to go is also getting deeper. Iglesias does so much with violence that I never knew was even possible. These bouts of hyper-violence are so dark and shocking, but still so layered into how everyone processes them, that they further the plot too. Each friend feels differently, will do something differently. But they’re together til the end, right? The author uses this shock value to further hammer home his themes.
As a hurricane blows in, the author uses it as the perfect curtain to draw over everything and add in a bit of mysticism and supernatural. And while metaphoric in itself, it’s also a shockingly creepy twist all on its own.
“All stories are ghost stories, and some stories turn us into ghosts.”
How far would you go for revenge? Would you up the violence, the depravity, to reach your goal? Would you let it whittle you away until there was nothing left?

Coming of Age Revenge Story
I listened via Audible to House of Bone and Rain by Gabino Iglesias. It was excellently narrated by Jean-Marc Berne and Daya Mendez. This is the second book I’ve experienced by Gabino Iglesias and he doesn’t disappoint. Iglesias is a Shirley Jackson and Bram Stoker awarded writer. This book is in a genre he calls Barrio Noir. The story covers a group of five teenage boys living in Puerto Rico who seek vengeance after one of their mothers is murdered.
The story is told mostly by Gabe “…if someone killed my mom I would burn the world to cinders. (…) we called each other a crew, brothers really, like a tight-knit group of kids in a Stephen King novel except with three brown dudes and two black ones running around and getting in trouble.”
Trouble is an understatement! This novel includes violent drug lords, human-sea monsters, hardships of island life, tragedy of hurricanes, ghosts, deceit, bloody violence but also family connections, hopes for a better future, and love.
If you enjoy violent crime dramas, stories by Stephen King, and are open to exploring life in the barrios of Puerto Rico you will love this well-written story that presents excellently developed characters. Iglesias is proving to be my go-to author for escapist reading. Love his work.

Hurricane Vice
This was a wild ride, and I was here for it. House of Bone and Rain is about high school friends in Ouerto Rico getting revenge when one of their mothers is killed by a drug lord. It’s dark and can be violent, but part of what I loved was the intense loyalty between the young men. But man, it got them into serious trouble. The language is beautiful. Listening to the audio I really got a feel for the characters and the dialogue is terrific. Nice comedic relief just when you need it the most. Someone compared to Stephen King and Don Winslow and I think that’s right but would also add SA Crosby to the list. And like all those, this is not to be missed!
