The White Bishop

De: Brandon Perras-Sanchez, Aron Beauregard

Narrado por: Rod Thomas

WHEN GOD HAS FORSAKEN YOU, WHO WILL YOU PRAY TO?

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? Or is someone or something watching their plan unfold? Based on the original screenplay by Brandon Perras-Sanchez and novelized by Aron Beauregard.

Not Expected, but Not Disappointed

When I got this book at Monster Expo, I had already gone down the rabbit hole of Aron Beauregard fandom. I really only needed to know that he at minimum dabbled in the production of this book. So when I purchased this book. I expected some fun, vile, possibly over-the-top splatter punk horror. That's not exactly what this book is.

Hence my title "Not Expected but Not Disappointed".

This is some real sophisticated horror. Dark, moody, and quite theatrical if we're adding fancy sauce on this description. Throw in being trapped with a psychopath and you now have a solid gold story that needs to be passed on to only your most worthy friends, family, and/or co-conspirators. At first, I was confused. Where was the grossier than life characters that turns your stomach three sentences after their entrance. No Ma'am, Sir, Good Person. You find yourself another book. However, I challenge you to continue reading. Follow along with this skeleton crew as they sail along transporting a crate with unknown cargo. That sentence tells you spooky and terror will follow.

Without getting into the story and ruining it for you, this tale will take you on some twists as the crew questions their pasts and their fate while you wait patiently (Lies. You'll be on edge) to see what becomes of the crew and cargo. Watch them fall apart and succumb to... on the violent sea.

I gotta say Brandon Perras-Sanchez put his whole foot in the original screenplay and set Mr. Beauregard up for success in this book. At least I think so. I could be wrong, but you won't know until you finish reading this

thrilling and creepy

amazing atmosphere and very engaging. the story sucks you in and doesn't let go until the chilling climax

Great narration. Good story

I liked this overall but I don't think it made as much sense as it should have. A group of sailors are hired to haul something but things go wrong. The timeline doesn't make sense to me and that's my hangup. It reads like everything happens in a few days but I think it's about a month or more.

Good overall.

The sense of dread and a feeling of claustrophobia and hopelessness.

This book kept me up at night! Body horror. Dread. Paranoia. I could not sleep after reading this and that is. Major Kudos to the author!

A must-read for those twisted enough to seek true horror.

My heart raced as I devoured this thrilling, pulse-pounding tale. The mere thought of being stranded in the open ocean is enough to send shivers down my spine, but when you throw in the looming presence of a malevolent force, it becomes a nightmare beyond imagination. The White Bishop is a gut-wrenching masterpiece of claustrophobic terror, an unrelenting descent into darkness that will leave you breathless and utterly captivated. This is a must-read for anyone who dares to delve into the deepest depths of fear. Highly recommended.

Nautical Horror…YES PLEASE!

If it’s a story of the Sea,
then it’s a story that I NEED!!!

Nautical Stories are my ultimate favorite.
Fiction or non, I can never get enough.
Especially when it comes to Nautical Horror.

THE WHITE BISHOP was abSEAlutely SINsational!
It has all the things I love about Nautical Horror.

A jumbled mess of a crew hired to deliver a mysterious cargo and reap a bountiful reward…
But this maritime adventure turns into a “who done it” mystery at Sea, quickly turning sinister with dwindling & rotting supplies, deteriorating conditions and moments of pure madness, leaving us with a brutally gruesome conclusion.

This story had me feeling sea sick, claustrophobic and anxious….thrown overboard with only a raft of utter despair and a “Not so Happily ever after” on the horizon. But it’s okay, because All I see are STARS ✨

This is what the Last Voyage movie should have been

The dread, story and characters are all real. The suspense is so well done, even there is nothing happening it's palpable. I can not wait to continue with this author!
