It was a great story and the podcast was phenomenal!
I sincerely hope for more tales from the world Art Blanchard inhabits.
Thank you!
P.S. Sell the book with the audio drama bundled in and you will make a killing sir!
This episode, in my opinion, was WORTH the wait!!!! Thank you soooo much for doing this audio book, Mr. Durham! I, and many, many others, look forward to hearing -more- tales of Art Blanchard and his truly interesting cases!
I seriously didn’t want to put the ipod down to do other things at work today. Thank you again!
Excellent finale! I am officially hooked on the world of FETIDUS and the enigmatic Art Blanchard. The music was fantastic too. I think you really have a winning character and world you’ve created here Mr. Durham and I thank you for sharing it with us.
Thank you, guys! It’s been incredibly fun producing this! I’m just now able to take a breath from the final big push of the finale — that was a crazy week — but I already can’t wait to release more in this world…
<— that’s supposed to be an evil grin emoticon…
And yes, there will more. It’s part of a three-book series I have planned and I’m gearing up for book 2 and a novella soon. I’ll announce more in an upcoming post mortem podcast. Man, did I learn a lot from this. Hope to put those lessons to good use in book 2.
Thank you again — your support has been one of the reasons I enjoy doing this so much!
Best,
James
Hi James
Thanks so much for all your effort. This podcast has been one of the best I have ever listened to, and I (like many others) look forward to more from you. Congratulations on a wonderful artistic achievement.
Dear Mr. Durham,
Your storyline was intriguing, with a superb cast and music to bring it very much to life (and unlife as the case is for some.) I eagerly awaited each episode, which kept me company during commutes and other mundane tasks. The characters were vivid, well-written and voiced, and I thank you profusely for sharing them. I’m delighted to hear that you’re planning two more books and will stay tuned in anticipation. Kudos to you all.
I’m lost without my Friday installation from the world of FETIDUS, James! Of course, I enjoyed the hell out of it. Thanks so much for coming back to this production after all the setbacks and craziness you’ve had over the last couple years. Hope you enjoy that quiet weekend vacation in a hotel room.
BALTICON!
Sir,
I enjoyed the story and production immensely – well done.
And I’ve picked up some tips to enhance my own podcast.
I shall be sticking around for the follow-ups.
Stay Alive

Wow, nice conclusion. Now I know exactly why i’ve stuck around with this story from the start, even though I was alittle late to the final part of this chapter. Don’t forget to enjoy your self, and thanks for producing this epic work even while life was doing its best to give you a low blow below the belt, and drop you out for the count.
*grins evilly* Can’t wait to hear what he has in store for book 2!
*is listening to the audiobook for the 5th time again*
Just finished podcast and just had to say how proud should be. Literally
Could not put it down. keep up the fabulous work!!!!!!!!
I listened to the entire storyline in one go. It was freaking amazing, and now I’m itching for more of the Fetidus world. Do you think that there is a chance you’ll continue the storyline in the same vein, or would it be in print?
I finally got around to listening to this, Mr. Durham. Perfectly executed. Perfect set up. I never saw half of that coming…. Your work has left me at a lack of words to describe this masterpiece….
Hi
Just wanted to say I enjoyed your book.
Looking forward to the sequel!
