Summary
Joe works at a facility that performs human experimentation.
His work just followed him home.
The government wanted to unlock hidden abilities in the human mind.
They put subjects in extreme sensory deprivation.
All the test subjects went violently insane.
But the research continued.
Today it has been perfected.
Almost perfected.
From the author of In My Father’s Basement comes another chilling novel that's a must-listen for fans of horror. Gruesome, gripping, and terrifyingly real!

A fun and scary thought
This story is built up nicely, I'll agree that the prologue was a little strange but it did set the tone well and it helped bring you into the mindset. I am stuck wondering if something like this has happened in any government jobs, it wouldn't surprise me and I think that is what helped draw me to this story and really made me connect and not want to put it down.

Fast paced and full of good scares
This feels like it would be at home as the plot for a resident evil sequel. I don't mean that in a negative way either. It just sits nicely in that sort of universe. Well written and has some fast paced sequences and violent imagery that will stay with me for a while to come.

a little slow to get going but an excellent ending
I found this a little bit slow to get going, and found myself wondering "where's the horror?" for the majority as apart from some quite gruesome depictions, nothing really shocking happens for the first 2/3 of the book. this is, however, all establishing the characters and situation for what I thought to be a fantastic ending. it delivers in both shock value, is truly horrific and manages to tie up the stories of all the main characters and several smaller characters, whilst offering a satisfying closure that's so often overlooked. overall an excellent book that truly had me going "ooh" out loud when certain revelations happen.

Good casual listen
I enjoyed the story, it was gripping enough to keep me going that the book felt short and sweet for the long dark winter nights. The narrator was also on point and made the entire experience a success!

skin-peeling gory horror!
Intercepts is a skin-peeling gory horror novel, with science fiction elements woven in that has you questioning what the heck is going on??? A lot. Not really at the main aspects of the story, but more so about what on earth does Joe actually do for a job and what is the purpose at the facility? I didn’t get it, and needed just a bit more background to build a bigger picture for me, just missing that ‘aaaaaaahhhhhhh I see’ moment with the greater details.
I wasn’t overly connected to the characters whilst I was reading, and I will try and write down what I have to say in a coherent way. The characters made sense, Joe, a work-a-holic (and father of Riley) has always put work first and therefore is a character I am sure a lot of us might be familiar with, and then Riley is a teenager so what more needs to be said about her. Joe loves his daughter, has the realisation of making a mistake or two and wants to help her (cough, and he should, seeming apparently all of this is his fault, cough). The problem is the novel felt like it was missing something to really make you care what might happen to the two of them. Things happen in the story that could, they just didn’t take me the whole way there, so as the story progresses, I wasn’t exactly shouting noooo, but shrugging and thinking, lol, nice.
The novel is well paced, turns on the gas at the right points, and despite what I may have mentioned above, I did really enjoy listening to it! I’d give it 3.5 stars.
Listening to this novel failed to have me in goosies, however; I think this would make for a really creepy horror movie!
