About this listen
I Hunt Killers introduced the world to Jasper (Jazz) Dent, the son of the world's most infamous serial killer. When a desperate New York City detective comes knocking on Jazz's door asking for help with a new case, Jazz can't say no. The Hat-Dog Killer has the Big Apple - and its police force running scared with no leads. So Jazz and his girlfriend, Connie, hop on a plane to the big city and get swept up in a killer's murderous game. Meanwhile, Jazz's dad, Billy, is watching... and waiting.

Story
Jazz is a likable teenager. But he's also the son of a (now incarcerated) infamous serial killer, and "Dear Old Dad" has taught Jazz everything he knows. But what Jazz doesn't know is whether or not he is destined to follow in his father's footsteps. He knows he has urges, but he also knows that he has a conscience, that he can follow his own path. And so, in an effort to right his father's wrongs, Jazz decides to help the police (although they don't know it yet) hunt down "The Impressionist" - a new serial killer in town.

Story
John Wayne Cleaver is dangerous, and he knows it. He's obsessed with serial killers, but really doesn't want to become one. So for his own sake, and the safety of those around him, he lives by rigid rules he's written for himself, practicing normal life as if it were a private religion that could save him from damnation. Dead bodies are normal to John. They don't demand or expect the empathy he's unable to offer. Perhaps that's what gives him the objectivity to recognize that there's something different about the body the police have just found behind the Wash-n-Dry Laundromat - and to appreciate what that difference means.

Story
Ellingham Academy is a famous private school in Vermont for the brightest thinkers, inventors, and artists. It was founded by Albert Ellingham, an early 20th century tycoon, who wanted to make a wonderful place full of riddles, twisting pathways, and gardens. "A place", he said, "where learning is a game." Shortly after the school opened, his wife and daughter were kidnapped. The only real clue was a mocking riddle listing methods of murder, signed with the frightening pseudonym "Truly, Devious".

Seventeen-year-old Cassie is a natural at reading people. Piecing together the tiniest details, she can tell you who you are and what you want. But, it's not a skill that she's ever taken seriously. That is, until the FBI come knocking: they've begun a classified program that uses exceptional teenagers to crack infamous cold cases, and they need Cassie. What Cassie doesn't realize is that there's more at risk than a few unsolved homicides—especially when she's sent to live with a group of teens whose gifts are as unusual as her own

How can a story end in the middle of something so
Would you listen to Game again? Why?
Yes.
It twists and turns, keeping you guessing. I like the characters.
Have you listened to any of Charlie Thurston’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

LEt's play a game
If you could sum up Game in three words, what would they be?
good, slow, unbelievable
Would you recommend Game to your friends? Why or why not?
I probably wouldn't. It's a little "childish" the only way I can think to describe it is if it wasn't quite so morbid at times, it may be more fitting for a 16 year old to read
What does Charlie Thurston bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I really did like his reading voice. I think he's good playing other characters and also his inner thought voice is good
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
sorry to say it wasn't. I DID like it but it took me forever to finish & I kept finding myself distracted
Any additional comments?
this was good and I feel like I will probably read the next one. I just found myself not listening or getting distracted easily so i'm not sure I loved it

A Great Sequel to I Hunt Killers
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
This book is a bit graphic for the YA set, but as an adult who reads and reviews quite a few YA books and loves thrillers, this was a great listen. The book is full of gruesome crimes and depraved killers, but it also features the strength of friendship. There's a lot going on in this sequel- the story expanding from a small town boy dealing with his serial killer father's legacy, to New York City and the possibility that Jasper's dad is on the hunt again. While Jasper helps the cops in NYC, Howie and Connie are dealing with a mystery a little closer at home. The end of the book leaves several cliffhangers that will have you desperate for the next book!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Game?
The ending had me on the edge of my seat! The stakes have gotten so much higher in this third book, and the fate of the main characters had my pulse racing!
What about Charlie Thurston’s performance did you like?
Thurston stepped up his performance for this second book, and while I thought he did an okay job in I Hunt Killers, I much preferred his narration in Game. I'm including him in my "favorite narrators" list now. ;)
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
"Losing this game could be deadly"

To much..
The book is great but it just had repeating inner thoughts from the main character. We get your plight now move on. Also, these people seem a little dumb because they do nothing that is logical. I get they are telling the story with twist and turns but they are just stupid (literally). I figured out the twist or plot 2/4 of the way in. It's just a little to obvious. BUT I still love the book and it's characters. Moving directly onto book 3 now!

Amazing book
This is a great book with tons of action. It keeps you wanting more. It has tons of details so you know what's happing. And I love how every now and then you get humor that makes you laugh out loud. But my favorite part of this is the plot twist, you never know what will happen next.

Deliciously Creepy
The suspense is definitely ramped up in this one!! Great series. I still have no idea whether Jazz will be a serial killer or be redeemed. Since I am not familiar with this author until this series, I have no idea if he values the lives of his main characters or not. Right now it doesn't look good for anyone. We shall see. This ending is a cliffhanger. Reader beware. I will admit that if everyone dies and Jazz gives in to his upbringing, my next review will be decidedly lower!!
