Ocker provides a broad overview of various cursed objects and the history and traditions which are behind them. I found the selection to be generally diverse and interesting, going far and beyond the classic Annabelle and Hope Diamond stories I was expecting. The writing was also pretty entertaining with the author having made a clear effort to bring humour to an otherwise dark subject.

Unfortunately, in reading this in audiobook format I think I missed out on a great deal by lacking the visuals of these objects. My reading experience was further hampered by this as an audiobook because the chapters were so short and created their own narrative - which made it personally difficult to keep track of what was happening and the lore of a given object. As such, I would recommend this book in an ebook/hardcopy format.

I'd like to thank NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read this in exchange for an honest review.
