This is a very incredible short story. I was on the edge of my seat from the beginning to the end. The story follows the protagonist Trevor, who lives a simple repetitive lifestyle but finds an escape on the weekends mountain biking. After viewing his own death on his GoPro during his latest riding conquest, he is disturbed by the omen but still wants to continue riding. This story isn't very complex but it is a quick page turner that leaves you stunned at the end. ( )Esta crítica foi escrita pelo autor. Reviewed By Tracy A. Fischer for Readers’ FavoriteIn an extremely intriguing work of short fiction, The End: A Novelette of Haunting Omens and & Harrowing Discovery by author Justine Avery, readers will find themselves obsessively turning the pages from the first words all the way through to the very last page. Follow our protagonist, Trevor, an all-round great guy, family man, good friend and valued employee, week in and week out. But on the weekends, Trevor's life is his own, and he spends it on the back of his mountain bike, enjoying freedom and adventure. He records each of his weekend rides with his GoPro, but one weekend, when he goes back to relive his most recent trip, what he finds on the recording is not what he expects. Instead of fun, adventure and dazzling technical feats on the bike, what Trevor finds recorded is something terrifying and nothing he was aware of. What does he find and what does he do? You'll need to read this novelette to find out! Wow! I so enjoyed The End: A Novelette of Haunting Omens and & Harrowing Discovery. Author Justine Avery has done a fantastic job in creating a story in which not one single word is wasted, and will leave readers hanging onto each of them. This story is fast-paced, exciting, and at times readers will find themselves on the edge of their seats with their hearts in their throats, waiting to see what will happen next. I highly recommend The End: A Novelette of Haunting Omens and & Harrowing Discovery to any reader looking for a great read. I look forward to more from author Justine Avery in the future, and hope that she's already hard at work on her next book right now! sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

It's impossible but it's on-screen. He's captured-on camera-the scene of his own death. One weekday to the next, Trevor quietly fulfills his roles as loving husband and father-to-be, trusted best friend, and dependable employee. He's chosen normality, routine, simplicity, even predictability: everything he never had as a child. And he prefers it that way. And then comes Saturday. The weekends are Trevor's alone. On the weekends, Trevor is king. Charging into the beckoning canyonlands of southern Utah, Trevor seeks out true challenge without hesitation, dares the ever-changing terrain to test his finest skill, and defies death itself as he pushes his mind and body to the max. He is the Weekend Warrior. Master of his machine. Trevor is a freeride mountain biker, and when he rides, the earth is at his command. Of course, he has to capture it all on camera. Trevor never rides without his helmet-mounted GoPro, recording the real-time video of his every triumph and technical maneuver. But this Saturday, the camera captures so much more. When Trevor presses the play button, eager to relive the thrilling moments of his impressive, recent ride, the scene that plays out before him on the television screen ends in an unexpected way. The footage is more than captivating; it's horrifying. They say that, in this age of advanced technology, if it wasn't filmed, it never happened. But what if it hasn't happened-yet-and it's already on film? He has only two options: succumb to his fate the footage foretells or fight-to the death if need be-for his very own life. * Medalist Award for Psychological Suspense (New Apple Summer E-Book Awards) * Bronze Award for Best Short Story (Feathered Quill Book Awards) * First Place Ebook Award (Reviewers Choice Literary Awards) * Silver Award for Short Story Fiction (Readers' Favorite International Book Awards) * B.R.A.G.
