Hunter Miller has a secret.

He can read and manipulate the auras that surround everyone.

Having used his talent to dethrone the reigning school bully, thirteen-year-old Hunter finds himself thrust into a new quest after hearing screams in the aura of a teacher.  Unable to resist this powerful siren song, he investigates—despite warnings from his family and friends. It nearly costs him everything.

Upon discovering the truth, Hunter seeks assistance in his mission to defeat his formidable adversary. As the situation escalates, the adolescent hero ultimately realizes that despite the risks, he must fight this battle alone.

In this second installment of The Master of Perceptions series, can Hunter use his extraordinary powers to rescue an innocent woman without losing himself in the process?

Can Hunter defeat this new adversary?

The Sound of Suffering by Darin C. Brown is a different type of book than I usually read, however, it is okay. Hunter is a teenager learning how to control his power of aura manipulation in a world where he can’t talk to anyone about but his grandpa.

What I liked

  • Our protagonist, Hunter has autism and is a karate expert.
  • The book is in the first-person point of view which helps us, know what Hunter is thinking and the auras he sees.
  • Hunter had friends that helped him.

What I didn’t like

I didn’t like the author’s writing style. He uses a lot of medical terminologies and karate terms. I mean sometimes it was nice to know especially when Hunter started karate or when his grandfather explained things. However, Dr. Brown could have used common terms once the story was rolling. As these words kept taking me out of the story so I could look them up.

Sound of Suffering CRThree Stars

The Sound of Suffering by Darin C. Brown is the second book in a new series, and sadly not a book for me. I loved the idea of this series. I enjoyed it though since it kept me entertained. I’m recommending this book to those who love books where the underdog becomes a hero.
