This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this unbiased, voluntary review.
I listened to the audiobook by Gary Bennett.
This book may have been the strangest thing I have ever listened to. I’m still not sure if it was brilliant or if I’m still recovering from shock.
The short story was written well, but not impressive. I definitely felt that the confused and scared average joe of a protagonist was written as he should be. Impy seemed to be whatever the author wanted, had random powers, and was a disgusting and hated creature. All in all, the story was well written and didn’t try to be something it wasn’t.
Gary Bennett was an okay performer. When he was talking (except at the end), I felt my mind wandering and finding it hard to pay attention. I contribute this to Bennett’s monotone voice and smooth delivery. But when I was focused, I throughly enjoyed listening to him.

A short tale of a man who has a run in with an urban (rural?) legend. The story is entertaining as his cynicism changes to disbelief and then the irrational as things go from the bad to worse. The narrator does a good job portraying the protagonists fraying state of mind, and the tale is a good one, and a short read/listen.
Got a couple of hours to listen/read? Check it out.
