About this listen
Ignatius Perrish spent the night drunk and doing terrible things. He woke up the next morning with one hell of a hangover, a raging headache... and a pair of horns growing from his temples. Once, Ig lived the life of the blessed: born into privilege, the second son of a renowned American musician, and the younger brother of a rising late-night TV star, Ig had security and wealth and a place in his community. Ig had it all, and more - he had the love of Merrin Williams, a love founded on shared daydreams, mutual daring, and unlikely midsummer magic.
Then beautiful, vivacious Merrin was gone - raped and murdered, under inexplicable circumstances - with Ig the only suspect. He was never tried for the crime, but in the court of public opinion, Ig was and always would be guilty. Now Ig is possessed with a terrible new power to go with his terrible new look, and he means to use it to find the man who killed Merrin and destroyed his life. Being good and praying for the best got him nowhere. It's time for a little revenge; it's time the devil had his due.

What did you like best about Horns? What did you like least?
I liked the narrator, but I found it quite a hard listen at times not really getting the story at times, it that could just be me.I'm going to watch the movie now to see if it will help piece a few things together.
It was ok.

A good story

This book is not for the squeamish, it deals with some very deprived and vile issues so if your the type that is easily offended or made uncomfortable then this book is definitely not for you. If you prefer your central characters likeable and charming then this book is not for you.
I really enjoyed this book. A very original narrative and anything but predictable. My first time reading Joe Hill and i will definitely pick up more of his work based on the strength of Horns.
Wicked!

A great listen, a little over written at times - editor could cut an hour perhaps. A lot to live up to, but if you enjoy dad then you will enjoy the son.
A good one

What made the experience of listening to Horns the most enjoyable?
Horns is one of those books that needs to be read to be appreciated, if you tell someone the storyline it can sound silly. It's so much more, clever and original and full of black humour.What about Fred Berman’s performance did you like?
He pitched all the characters perfectly, and was consistent with voices so you never wondered who was talking.Any additional comments?
This is my second Joe Hill book, I enjoyed NOS4R2 and this was equally good. Both kept me wanting more, I will be getting more of Joe's work.Funny, original and leaves you wanting more.
