AudioFile Best Voices - Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Audio Theater, 2014 Baal was Robert McCammon's first novel, a debut that would lead for some of the finest popular fiction in our time. Written at age 25 and published as a paperback original in 1978, it's been out of print out for years. This deluxe new sound model from Subterranean Press will give McCammon's many admirers both beginners and longtime admirers - the opportunity to trace the development of an extraordinarily talented man. The storyline begins with a horrific rape on the roadways of New York City. Nine months after that violation, a most unconventional child is born. His name is Jeffrey Harper Raines, but he quickly assumes his true name - and true purpose - as Baal, a fresh incarnation of the traditional prince of demons. The narrative recounts his lethal improvement through the 20th hundred years, which begins with the damage of his earthly "family". After that, Jeffrey/Baal steps to a doomed Catholic orphanage, where he unleashes carnage by using an unprecedented size, then out into the wider world, where he embraces his future as the Prophet of the Damned, producing a legacy of chaos, assault, and despair. Baal is very much a young man's story, natural and brimming with emotion. Listen tightly and you'll notice the voice of any gifted storyteller struggling to be blessed. In 1980, the profession that would encompass Swan Melody, Boy's Life, and The Five still lay waiting several years later on. This is where it began.
