About this listen
You asked for it, it's here. All five books in the critically acclaimed Bad Games series under one terrifying roof. Bad Games: The Complete Series includes:
Bad Games: The terrifying best seller that started it all.
The Lambert Family is heading to Crescent Lake, a rural cabin community in Western Pennsylvania, for an idyllic weekend getaway. Some fishing, some barbecue, some games...
The Fannelli brothers are heading to Crescent Lake too. Some stalking, some kidnapping, some murder, and definitely some games...though not necessarily the type of games the Lamberts had in mind. But it doesn't matter. The Lamberts are going to play whether they like it or not.
Vengeful Games: The Lambert family played the Fannelli brothers' twisted game and survived. Showed the brothers they'd messed with the wrong family.
However, the game is far from over. There are some new players in town. Players who have close ties to the Fannelli brothers. Players who are taking things very personally...and promising results that are very deadly.
Hellbent: A year has passed. Marine and security specialist Domino Taylor shadows the Lambert family, the guilt he feels for the tragic events that unfolded in Western Pennsylvania haunting him without mercy.
When someone from Domino's past contacts him, begging for his help, Domino reluctantly agrees, not knowing the sinister truth lying in wait: There is one final game yet to play.
Malevolent: After years of silence, the game is back on. Widower Allan Brown is hosting a support group in his home for the bereaved. One of the guests in attendance will be Amy Lambert, this week marking the five-year anniversary of her family’s horrifying ordeal at Crescent Lake.
Of course, it’s hardly cause for celebration. Still, some unwanted guests plan on attending the support group to help Amy celebrate all the same....
Psychopath: A decade has passed. Caleb’s increasingly violent temper sees him discharged from the Marine Corps. Carrie is failing at her second attempt at college. Aftermath, it would seem, plays the cruelest game of all.
The only plus is Amy Lambert's success as a best-selling author, chronicling her family’s horrific ordeals over the years. But is it a success? It has brought some unwanted attention Amy’s way. Two fledgling killers who happen to idolize the late and infamous serial killers Arty and Jim Fannelli have been paying attention and these two killers are eager to show the Lamberts just how much they truly admire their idols...with the help of Arty and Jim themselves?
Find out how such a horrifying prospect comes to fruition in the fifth and final book in the series, and prepare yourself for the game to end all games.
I hope you enjoy the Bad Games series, my friends. This series is ideal for fans of authors across several different blends of dark fiction like Stephen King, Dean Koontz, James Patterson, Karin Slaughter, Jeffery Deaver, L.T. Vargus, Jack Ketchum, Richard Laymon, J. A. Konrath, Blake Crouch, Willow Rose, and more.
Enjoy!

Quite Enjoyable
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audiobook and reading this book at the same time. The first few pages had me hooked and since then I listened & read the whole 5 books stopping only once to read another book and give myself a rest but it pulled me back into it to see how the family were and what was round the corner.
The author done an amazing job with the suspense in each book and kept you wondering who was going to try and kill the family next, book 5 was a decent twist with the characters and it didn’t disappoint.
Highly recommend the whole collection, I only listened and read these as I wanted to try a new genre, will be keeping an eye on this authors work !

Dark, twisted and brilliant.
I stumbled upon this collection almost by accident, which is fitting for a series that begins with a chance encounter. The story follows the trajectory of a family targeted by a pair of serial killers; each installment somehow managing to up the ante. The content is certainly pretty dark and twisted, but the author has a great talent for balancing this with humour and the whole series makes for a compelling listen. I don’t recall the last time I ploughed through thirty-six hours of audio books in such a short period. The author has a wonderfully witty and wry style with some great observations of human nature and behaviour. The narrator also proves to be one of the rock stars of Audible and does a fantastic job of bringing the characters to life. An inspired choice for this series. The fact that this whole series is available for a single credit, makes this an absolute no-brainer. Possibly not recommended for those with a weak stomach though!

Not sure how to rate the entire series.
The first book is 10/10, brilliantly written and the fight of the family very realistic and on point.
Second book 7/10 - starts to get slightly unrealistic, but I can still get behind it.
And then, downhill on realism from there, 4 or 3 out of 10.
I normally get angry when people describe fiction as "unrealistic" - it's fiction and supposed to be unrealistic. However, the difference here is that the author tries very hard to write realistic fiction, and, although brilliantly executed in book 1, it starts to slip immediately in unrealistic after book 1. Still worth the credit though!

Book 1 was good it goes downhill with each book
I did enjoy book 1, however it isn't original. anyone familiar with the films Funny Games and The Strangers will know the story well...
Each book that followed was increasingly ridiculous and in my opinion not well written. it was a decent deal for one credit to get 5 books, but I wouldn't really recommend it
