Publisher's Summary
TERRIFIED...
It was supposed to be a harmless camping trip. Six wayward teenagers who'd run into trouble with the law, and their court-appointed guardians, Sara and Martin Randhurst. Three nights on a small, deserted island off of Michigan's upper peninsula. A time to bond, to learn, to heal.
Then Martin told a campfire story about the island's history. Of the old civil war prison hidden in there, and the starving confederate soldiers who resorted to cannibalism to stay alive. Everyone thought it was funny. They even laughed when Martin pretended to be dragged off into the woods.
But Martin didn't come back. And neither did Sara when she went in search of him.
Then the laughter stopped.
...TO DEATH
The group soon began to realize that this deserted island wasn't so deserted after all. And perhaps Martin's ridiculous story had more truth to it than anyone thought.
What's the most horrifying thing you can imagine?
This is a hundred times worse...
TRAPPED by Jack Kilborn
It starts where other horror ends
A Word of Warning
This is the long-awaited follow-up to AFRAID, one of the most horrifying books ever written.
Originally scheduled to be released in paperback in 2010, the publisher read the first version of the manuscript and refused to release it. The author made extensive changes, rewriting much of the story. The publisher still refused.
This is a disturbing, terrifying book. You may think you're brave enough to handle it. But you're probably not...

Konrath is a god amongst men!
Trapped was a thrilling experience to say the least. I was completely enraptured throughout every nail-biting, sphincter clenching chapter. As always, Konrath provided an intense thrill-ride of an epic replete with substantial, relatable characters, alongside some utterly repellent & deeply disturbing ones. The narrator, Phil Gigante, was once again an amazing performer who breathes life into another of J A Konrath’s horrific, but tantalising, tales. 5 stars all round!

Gore-fest!
Well, I can't say I wasn't warned by the other reviewers! This book has it all: people stranded on a scary island, sociopaths, sadists, a mad scientist, and a bunch of lobotomized cannibals. The first half of the book is effectively spooky; the second half is just gross, with vivid descriptions of people being roasted, eaten, tortured, degraded, mutilated, and so on. But I'm not complaining. Most of the story is entertaining, and the narration is solid.
There is one thing that's bothering me about the story and prevents me from giving it a higher rating. A big revelation in the second half changed the complexion of the whole novel. It made me go back to listen to key passages again to see if it was possible to predict it. Were there signs buried in the story? Was the author cleverly leading us in one direction only to shock us with the truth? Or were we outright tricked? Like a lot of readers/listeners, I don't like to be fooled by cheap tricks. And this one felt pretty cheap.
Still, I liked the book overall, and I recommend it to horror and gore fans.

One of my favorite Kilborn books. One of the other reviewers used the word "twisted". This describes the story, characters, and Kilborn. Loved it!!! Thanks Jack!!!

Twisted
You probably either love or hate this author. I can't get enough. I finished this one in 4 days which in my busy schedule is really good. I couldn't stop listening. Read by the same guy that narrated Afraid, Phil Gigante did an excellent job. I could really visualize all the characters especially Lester. If you are a fan of gore/thriller/action then don't pass this one up. Keep putting them out Jack and I'll keep buying.

The Island of Dr Moreau meets silly B rated flick
Well, I think my headline says it all. A bunch of wayward teens running around in the woods, being chased by bad guys and making silly predictable mistakes. It was like one of those "B" rated horror movies where you wanted to scream at the drunken naked blond (I'm blond I can say that) to stay put. Oh good grief what a disappointment. Pros? hmmm The narrator did a good job and I almost listened to the whole thing.

Another crazy Kilborn book!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
yes!
Any additional comments?
I loved Kilborn's book Endurance and Afraid wasn't too bad either. So figured I had to try this book. It is a creepy book just like the others. At times I wonder if I will be able to finish when the gore kept going, but always seem to manage. It's a crazy book and will definitely make you want to go camping lol!

Not real crazy about this one!
At first this book was rather enjoyable. It was far fetched and got hard to listen to. I enjoy listening to fiction and don't expect books to be true to life, however, this one was over the top! The narrator was overly dramatic through out the book making the more intense parts not as exciting as they could be. I found it was hard to listen to as he used the same expressions throughout the whole book. Although I do not feel as though I "wasted" a credit on this book; I wouldn't recommend it. There are many more books out there that are better and worth the money.

Ha Ha Ha......
I have never laughed so hard! The author tries for the bloody gross out, goes over the top and it ends up being corny and silly. Not to use too many spoilers but the crazy cannibal with the salt shaker, and the kids who says in tears, "I ate my friend and he tasted like chiken!" I almost wet myself !

I love horror movies, especially bad low budget horror movies, this reads like a typical bad low budget horror movie. Had all the cliche moments and was full of completely unbelievable situations. Turn off your brain and enjoy.

His pet was a man with his arms and legs cut off, eyes gauged out and tongue cut off.
This was the most disgusting, gory, violent, mindless, torture filled, intense, twisted book I have ever read. It was totally sick.
I loved it.

trapped jack kilborn
Like the first person to write a review for this book,i totally agree please can we have a film Mr Kilborn?
This was a fantastic story,and you do in fact pull faces yourself when the torture begins.
Before this i did listen to his other book Endurance,and loved that so much i checked the author out,and found Trapped which was just as good,if you have a strong stomach go for it a great read and great narrator.

I wish this book could be made into a film..
From the offset, the book offers up vibrant characters, oodles of suspense, bloodshed and a fair serving of gore without the need for being too graphic or offensive. With a mad doctor, feral cannibals, sadistic psychotics and enough torture to make you almost imagine the pain; this story is fast paced and often left me frustrated and wanting more each time when I had to take a break. The last few hours of the book are absolutely amazing and the build up towards the end with so many twists and turns was incredible.
Even though I would categorise the thoughts of the authors as being "very disturbed", I thought this story was amazing and by far my best read of 40+ books in the last two years. If only this could be made into a film, the storyline would easily stand on par with the likes of Hostel2 and Saw etc. Brilliant book, read (listen to) it!!

Original horror
This should probably be classed as "black comedy" as well as horror to avoid disappointment from people who like their horror serious and sinister. Kilborn's style is to throw at you as much gore and as many disgustingly painful ways of killing people as possible but in a darkly humorous way. I laughed out loud at several points and rather than detract from the horror, it makes it even better.
This is the third Kilborn audiobook I've downloaded and he is definitely a bit obsessed with cannibalism, people who are deformed or physically different (like being super tall) and people who are mentally unstable. I found this novel quite similar to Endurance, and I think Endurance does it a bit better. I don't think the pacing of Trapped is quite as good as it takes a while to really get going and then there isn't really a building of tension.
One thing I have really enjoyed about Kilborn's books is that the characters are very original and not the usual horror stereotypes. He seems to like using strong female protagonists to fight the bad guys and doesn't just use them as fodder - that's a refreshing change. However I found Sarah quite uninspiring as a heroine in Trapped. I much preferred the characterisation of Tyrone and Cindi and my biggest disappointment with this is that we didn't spend more time with Georgia, who was fascinating and entirely unique. In a way I think it's a shame she was a bit part in a novel and didn't get to star in her own.
I can see from the other reviews that I'm not the only one who thought "this would make a good movie" while I was listening. Hopefully some movie makers will see our reviews!

Yep... I was scared!
This book is just brilliant. Just what I want from reading... I just want something that will take me away and be truely horrified by (but of course just in the fictitious sense) and keep me enterained and in suspense with good old escapism.
The book starts and BAM... action and suspense throughout which does not slow down until you have read the last word. Yes, I liked all the characters and whilst some scenes were difficult to read it was of course made quite 'silly' in the sense you knew this was not at all a true story or even trying to be.
Definitely read if you like page turning, actiona and horror and true fight for survival. If you are sqeamish at all then I would not recommend!

ridiculous rubbish
I purchased this title after reading the reviews and quickly discovered I'd made a huge mistake. The story is ridiculous, almost comical and the writing lazy and fatuous. It just goes to show how much taste can vary from one person to the next (pun unintended). The story sounded promising and I was excited at the prospect of finding a good thriller/horror writer. Oh the disappointment!
The only redeeming feature of this listening experience is the narrator. I would happily buy another audiobook narrated by him.

Gripping
I downloaded this book expecting an average read. How wrong was I? It had a gripping story line and I got really attached to the good guys and was really routing for them to survive the ordeal. I recommend this book for anyone who likes to be scared to the core at what a person can do to another person. I was also just as impressed at the bravery of one person and what they would do to rescue another. I didn’t want this book to end.

You know when you pick up a Kilborn/Konrath your in for a bumpy ride and this doesn't disappoint as it's got the lot. Gore,violence,humour, teenagers plus a whole lot more..all come mixed up in Trapped. Read/listen to it, enjoy it and don't take it seriously.
Just enjoy the ride.
Brilliant.
