A chilling short Aloysius - Great

This is a short teaser before the up coming release of the next Pendergast novel. As always, his stories are chilling. This story is from his childhood and told to Constance in the living room of their house in New York. It is suitably disturbing in the traditional manner. It is worth the hour. Pop open your wallet and pay cash. Thumbs up.

Gruesome & short but in true Pendergast fashion

I love the Pendergast series but was initially reluctant to get this since I thought the 'bad tooth fairy' subject might be too macabre. I was right but the story was masterfully written & performed. Cons- the story may stay with you like all good horror tales but that's also what makes for a classic fairy tale. The brevity of the story will leave you wanting more.

What an full short

I loved this book. Just a bit of the - what the heck - on the old legend of the tooth fairy as only the Pendergast’s could tell it. It’s not long but way fun.

Another excellent story...

What did you love best about Extraction?

As always, Preston and Child gave us another excellent story and Rene Auberjonois a perfect read.

Very dark fairy tale

The narrator was very appropriate when he was speaking as Agent Pendergast but only mediocre for other characters voices. Story itself was typical for the series. In the end, you finish the story with tons of unanswered questions.

Imagine

Imagine sitting around a campfire and Pendergast tells a story...

Rene Auberjonois always does an awesome Pendergast

A Visit Back to Pendergast's Childhood

What did you love best about Extraction?

It is a short story with an interesting, grisly twist on the tooth fairy.

What did you like best about this story?

When young Pendergast enters the old mansion of the bogus tooth fairy with his father.

What does Rene Auberjonois bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He is an actor and brings the story to life in his own way.

If you could take any character from Extraction out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Pendergast of course!

Nice little side story

As far as short stories go, this was a good one. It is basically a tale of a mysterious man considered by young kids to be a very evil tooth fairy. The whole story takes place as Pendergast and his friends enjoy themselves before dinner. The story is short but it sheds some new light on Diogenes and perhaps Pendergast's future life choices.

Don't use a credit...great SHORT story

Okay, for a short story, how far can you go in a short time, make sure you've listended to other Pendergast stuff otherwise you wont know the characters.
