In September 1993, a TV show like no other appeared on our screens, asking us to consider the essence of truth and belief, to think about the nature and roles of science and humanity, and to question what we were told by those in power. Combining horror, science fiction, drama, crime, and comedy with cinematic filmmaking, The X-Files transported the paranoia of the sixties and seventies to the technologically savvy nineties as it followed two iconic characters, FBI Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, in their labyrinthine pursuit of truth.

When you have to kill the same terrorist twice in one week there’s either something wrong with your world or something wrong with your skills - and there’s nothing wrong with Joe Ledger’s skills. And that’s both a good and a bad thing. It’s good because he’s a Baltimore detective who has just been secretly recruited by the government to lead a new task force created to deal with the problems that Homeland Security can’t handle....

In 1972, Jeff Rice's novel The Night Stalker introduced Carl Kolchak to the world. This spine-tingling novel of supernatural terror became an instant best seller and served as the basis for the film of the same name. After The Night Stalker became one of the highest rated television movies of all time, a sequel, The Night Strangler, was released the following year to great acclaim. Now, after more than three decades out of print, The Night Stalker and The Night Strangler are together in one volume.

With equal parts suspense, gore, camp, and revenge, the triumvirate of EC’s horror output laid the groundwork for what was to come from many of the genre’s greatest writers and directors. Now, AudioComics (a division of Pocket Universe Productions) presents EC’s The Vault of Horror, its stories adapted and presented in an audiorich fully immersive setting complete with a full cast, scoring, and soundscapes.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Probably for X-Files fans only
As an X-Files fan I had high hopes for this book....however this was honestly a struggle to get through. First,the narrator has this sing song rhythmic way of saying each sentence that drove me to drop the book for a couple of weeks three separate times. Second, the book got bogged down in internal dialog a few times that really brought the pace to a halt - especially when Scully is experiencing her “vision” with Sunlight. There a LONG stretch of description of colors and shapes etc. I stopped halfway through and didn’t pick it up til the next day.
The story did pick up in the last third and was MUCH better from then on.

A Bit Too Out of Character
I honestly couldn’t finish this book. Dana Scully doesn’t seem anything like her character we meet several years later. Yes, I know people grow up and change, but honestly this sounds more like a bad fanfic than a compelling prequel to the series.
The narration didn’t help. Flat and dull best describe it.

Disappointed
did not care for the narrator and the story dragged. Did not keep me interested.

interesting story, bad voice
it was a great story to listen, however the voice was too weird. almost made me drop the book several times. she reads ALL sentences in a rising a falling curve. regardless of the meaning or story. dialogues are a bit better, but general descriptions are very painful. hope the narrator will grow for the next book.

disappointingly bland.
I read both the X-Files origins books and this one was a bit of a chore compared to the Mulder one. No humour, no real character insight. this contribution adds nothing to the saga.

Fun listen
I found it very entertaining and it was narrated very well! However, I did think the storyline was rather predictable.

Great book, not so great narration
I saw on the reviews most people said the same thing, I was able to get through the book with no problem, but Emma’s voice is not the right fit.

Thats it?
It starts a bit slow but then its a fast paced race to the end. Then we get left with basically a cliffhanger. Lets hope for a few more in the series!

Wasn't a Fan of this Prequel. Ignored BASICS
Who is Scully? Certainly NOT the girl in this story.
It would have been FAR BETTER to center the story on the quirky OLDER SISTER, who was actually into all that mystical stuff. And then have Dana investigate it. But it was an unwise move to place all of this in the person who we know the BEST.
Dana Scully would NEVER have kept this crazypants background from Mulder.
For heavens sake, he told her his darkest secret on their first case in the Pilot.
