About this listen
FADE IN: INTERIOR COURT. A guard sits at a desk behind STEVE. KATHY O'BRIEN, STEVE's lawyer, is all business as she talks to STEVE.
O'BRIEN
Let me make sure you understand what's going on. Both you and this King character are on trial for felony murder. Felony murder is as serious as it gets....When you're in court, you sit there and pay attention. You let the jury know that you think the case is as serious as they do....
STEVE
You think we're going to win?
O'BRIEN (seriously)
It probably depends on what you mean by "win".
What the critics say
"Steve Harmon, 16, is accused of serving as a lookout for a robbery of a Harlem drugstore. The owner was shot and killed, and now Steve is in prison awaiting trial for murder. From there, he tells about his case and his incarceration. Many elements of this story are familiar, but Myers keeps it fresh and alive by telling it from an unusual perspective. Steve, an amateur filmmaker, recounts his experiences in the form of a movie screenplay. His striking scene-by-scene narrative of how his life has dramatically changed is riveting....It's an emotionally charged story that readers will find compelling and disturbing." (School Library Journal)

A Brilliant Story Brought to Life!
"Monster" is one of the best books I've read, and this audiobook really makes what was already an amazing book, even more amazing. The full cast of actors really brought the characters to life; every single voice fit, and you really feel as though you're living each scene of the novel as it happens, which is what I think a good audiobook should always do.
This gets a very high recommendation from me! It's an absolute must-read/must-listen!
