Publisher's Summary

A romantic cabin getaway doesn't go exactly as planned.

High up on the windswept cliffs of Pale Peak, Faye and Felix celebrate their new engagement. But soon, a chorus of ghastly noises erupts from the nearby woods: the screams of animals, the cries of children, and the mad babble of a hundred mournful voices. A dark figure looms near the windows in the dead of night, whispering to Faye. As the weather turns deadly, Felix discovers that his terrified fiancée isn't just mumbling in her sleep—she's whispering back.

Strong start

Stolen Tongues began strongly with a really creepy atmosphere being created. There were some very unsettling scenes throughout the book that had me feeling pretty spooked. I also enjoyed Felix and Faye as characters as well as their relationship. However, I did find the story to become repetitive towards the end, which diminished the scares that I really wanted to have. It became a bit of a struggle to finish.

Book was OK enough, narration is awful

the narrative yells every line tonelessly, even if the writing says "said softly" or "whispered", and seems to think that doing a female voice just means speaking even louder in a whiney voice, it almost made the book impossible to listen to and I reverted to my Kindle a LOT while reading this book. the book itself is overrated as a scary book, the intro is chilling and then the rest if the book is 90% dead boring and doesn't live up to the intro.

Ok..

As a person who has read horror as a main genre for years, this story left something to be desired. In saying this, though, it was ok.
Character development only really focuses on Felix (who is named and is aspiring to be in the same profession as the author, weird) when it could of been shared a touch more with other characters for example, Fay, who felt very one dimensional and as the princess in need of rescuing from the proverbial dragon.
The authors note at the end, it felt like a justification even after he mentioned that his respected colleagues warned against writing native Americans into the story.
Also, more research would of been appreciated on the "big bad", as flesh pedestrian's are, even from my basic knowledge, a lot more scarier in current media, instead the one in this story just seems like your average human stalker.
Overall, an ok listen if you have nothing else to listen too..

Definitely a strong start but slow finish

Interesting reading but had so much more potential

Very little omg factor and I honestly wasn’t spooked at all, I might be bias though as I enjoy horror

Enjoyed!!!

I really enjoyed this book, I honestly thought a book couldn’t freak me out, this book did it.
Narration was brilliant loved the voices it helped give me an eeriness to the story.
