About this listen
From the Amazon best selling author of MM dark romance
Alec
I've been waiting a decade to meet him, and I finally found him.
Hidden away in the town's abandoned asylum, he thinks no one will ever find him.
I need him more than he will ever know.
He's the only person that will ever understand my twisted mind, I just know it.
I'll gain his trust slowly but surely from afar, hoping one day he will let me in. I need him to teach me how to be just like him.
I want to understand his darkness, and see if it’s just like mine.
Warren
I've been alone out here since I was released from jail.
No one bothers me way out here.
I can kill anyone I want, undetected, because no one in this town gives a shit.
But there's this guy who keeps bringing me unconscious bodies and leaving them at the backdoor for me to have.
He stalks me from out in the woods.
He looks just as damaged as me.
I thought I had my walls built too high to let anyone in, but this man will become my new obsession.

Story
Kyran Harbor is everything I'm not. Rich. Popular. A superstar football player who's awfully broody for someone who has it all. Basically, he's a preppy jock who hates me. Oh, and he's also my stepbrother. That's right. We're stuck together, sharing a school, a house, a bathroom. Honestly I wouldn't care if he wasn't such an uptight control freak who messes with me just because we're different. I had every intention of avoiding him when we got to college. Until abrupt misfortune forces us both into a compromising position.

Story
Charles Preston Carmichael is the most infuriating man I've ever met. I want to sock the golden boy of college hockey right in the mouth. He enjoys telling me everything I'm messing up—publicly. And since he's my roommate for the next year, I can't avoid him. Yet there's something about him that makes me watch him. Something dark. A secret I want to uncover. When he returns from a weekend away, broken and haunted, I can't keep my distance anymore. He needs someone, and I'll be damned if it's not me.

Story
My path to success never included an enemy as a teammate, especially one as infuriating as Quinton de Haas. Clawing under my skin is his favorite pastime, only feeding the animosity between us as the years pass. We’re as completely opposite as two people can be; the golden boy and the black sheep. Constantly at odds or at each other’s throats. The only thing we can agree on is hockey is our true love, and we’ll do whatever it takes to come out on top. I never imagined that drive would lead me to do the unthinkable: falling into bed with my not-so-straight rival.

This is Alabaster Penitentiary... Where they send you when the world thinks you're dead. And trust me, you'll wish you were. We're the stain on society. The freaks, the creeps, your favorite Netflix documentaries come to life. They lock us up and throw away the key, because we deserve it. But not me. I'm just a lowly bank robber. I don't belong here, surrounded by psychopaths and killers with no remorse... At least, I don't think I do.

Reed Ellis is absolutely gorgeous but a total newbie to camming, a virtual nobody in my world. I should have just deleted his message request for a steamy on-camera collaboration. Not everyone is cut out to be a camboy. But there's just something about him I couldn't resist. He's timid and inexperienced, quiet and closed off, but his fumbling first times play out scorching hot for the cameras, and our videos together are an instant success. I know I should just ride this out, sit back and watch the money roll in, and then move on.

Twenty years ago, monsters rose on earth and began a new age of civilization. One where humans live in military-controlled, cramped and dirty cities along the coasts, and the majority of the United States is known as the Wastes. A lawless, desolate and dangerous place, teeming with monsters that have claimed the land for their own. Including Wyn the Soul Eater. He appears every three years, making his way across the country and slaughtering humans randomly, sucking them dry until they’re nothing but husks.

To be a successful pack, you must have an Omega. Alpha and Beta shifters can become feral when congregated in large numbers without an Omega’s calming influence. Eighteen years ago, I was kidnapped with my mother. They wrongly assumed she was an Omega. For 10 years, I watched them break her, beat her, abuse her in every way. They promised my fate would be the same when I came of age. They were wrong. I escaped, taking my two young brothers with me. We’ve avoided all other shifters for eight years. Until now. Now a new pack has moved in, and they seem to have an interest in my brothers. In me.

Story
As a divorced man in my thirties with a throwaway job and very few friends, I admit that I've made a lot of bad decisions over the years. Rounding out the top of that epic list was allowing my son's best friend, Quinn, to talk me into taking him on a two-week summer road trip... alone. What was supposed to be quality father-son bonding time before Joshua went off to college has somehow transpired into a battle of wills between me and his nineteen-year-old best friend. Quinn may be young, but he genuinely seems to enjoy spending time with me, something I've never experienced before.

Great book, Great Narration!
*Received for free in exchange for honest review*
Really enjoyed the book, but the narration took it to the next level! Narration really added to the dark and sexual nature of the story.

Decent Short read
Narration
I wasn't a huge fan of Richard Pendragon because it felt so monotone majority of the time. He did have moments that he should emotions so that kept me from DNFing.
Story
This story was not really what i expected but it was entertaining. all readers need to look up the trigger warnings for this book because it has a few. The degradation and the obsession from either MMC is actually quite entertaining.

Excellence in murder
I really enjoyed this audiobook, my first MP Bates book. It kept things moving, and I became emotionally invested in these two terrible, terrible people. The narration was good, but there were a few times I found it hard to figure out or remember which character was talking when the perspective changed, as they sometimes sounded similar. But overall, really enjoyed this, would listen to it again.

I really enjoyed this story
This story itself is amazing, depraved, sweet in its own way, heart-rending at times.. but the way that war was brought to life through pendragons narration. I also enjoyed that war has a different voice for in his own head vs when he is speaking. It makes it much easier for the listener to distinguish!!! I loved this book when I read it and it was a pleasant surprise to listen to it and enjoy it as much as I did the first time reading! Make sure to check the triggers(which are 1000% laid out before the book even starts) but if you can handle these triggers trust me the narration brings this already awesome book to life!

Dark MM Romance
Serial Asylum by MP Bates is a dark MM romance novella that I listened to on audio narrated by Richard Pendragon. This is the first book in the Killer Boys series.
This is the first book of MP Bates that I have read, and it definitely won't be my last. I was pulled in from the very beginning and couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next. I really enjoyed the instant connection that Warren and Alec had. I loved getting both of their points of views throughout the book.
I can't wait to dive into the next book in the series Tarot Fates so I can get Lilly, Adrian, and Christos story.
Ricard did a great job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of his work in the future.
I would recommend this book if you like dark romances, serial killer romances, insta-love romances, erotic romances, or romantic suspense.

WOW
This was my first audiobook. Serial Asylum was dark and I loved the book format. I loved the audio format more than the book. it was simply perfection. Richard Pendergren's voice was so hot, that I swooned all through every chapter. This was extremely dark so check your cw. I have listened to it several times. It is that good.

Everything! The writing style, the plot, the narration. ALL OF IT was bad! I suffered though because I couldn't return it and it was short.
