Publisher's Summary

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Us Against You by Fredik Backman, read by John Sackville.

A small, broken town sits on the edge of a frozen lake surrounded by a forest, its wounds still raw from a tragedy that tore its fragile community in two.

Beartown has lost its way. Now the cold and dark that surround the snowbound town creep in, and so do new conflicts and tensions. What was once a friendly rivalry with the neighbouring town is beginning to turn sinister and Beartown braces itself for another tragic blow.

How far will the people of Beartown go to preserve their reputations for a second, deadly time?

Us Against You is a spell-binding exposition of small-town life in all its flawed complexity.

Slow start, but pulls you in

Like most of Backman's books, this one starts slow and plodding, but it is very definitely worth sticking with.

Just brilliant

Just when you think Bachman has written his best one yet, he knocks it out of the park, over and over again. Excellent narration too.

Taps into emotions you yourself didnt know you had or cared

A brilliant take on the one thing which makes us human but also different - emotions.

The characters and the story

The writing is very gripping. The characters from the very first moment connect with you and you are entangled in the story. It is heartwarming and emotional at times too. Over all a great book.

A good follow up to Beartown

Frederick Blackman has the ability to draw you in and keep you curious of what's to follow. The story is good, and the narration is very good as well.
It's a good listen if you liked the original "Beartown"

Heart Touching story

A great sequel to an awesome book. The author has managed to create magic with his style of writing. The quote "Morality is Luxury" will stay with me for a long time.
