Acerca de esta escucha

When magic and superpowers emerge in the masses, Wendy Deere is contracted by the government to bag and snag supervillains in Hugo Award-winning author Charles Stross' Dead Lies Dreaming: A Laundry Files Novel.

As Wendy hunts down Imp - the cyberpunk head of a band calling themselves The Lost Boys - she is dragged into the schemes of louche billionaire Rupert de Montfort Bigge. Rupert has discovered that the sole surviving copy of the long-lost concordance to the one true Necronomicon is up for underground auction in London. He hires Imp's sister, Eve, to procure it by any means necessary, and in the process, he encounters Wendy Deere.

In a tale of corruption, assassination, thievery, and magic, Wendy Deere must navigate rotting mansions that lead to distant pasts, evil tycoons, corrupt government officials, lethal curses, and her own moral qualms in order to make it out of this chase alive.

Good, but a skippable side quest in the main plot.

While enjoyable and containing some of Stross's delightful humor, including lines that reference Helen of Troy and/or Skyrim, I had originally planned to skip this story because it wasn't about the core Laundry crew. However, it was free to listen to, and... it just seems skippable. It's not a bad story, and if you want more Stross with an alternate view of the Laundry universe then by all means read it.

A solid entry in the series

Good stuff, not the best one in the series but not bad by any means. I miss Bob and the Laundry gang, but the new characters are kind of fun, if a little bit leaning into woke fan service (the fan service being the bad part of that, it gets a little heavy handed at times). Reads like well written YA. If you like the Laundry books you'll get your money's worth.

This is not a good place to start the series, do some googling for a better jumping on point or just start from the beginning. I generally am tired of series fiction but Stross still delivers the goods and this one is made of books with actual beginnings, middles, and ends.

Great side story in the same universe

A new cast of characters, all great. Especially awesome to see some positive representation of a trans man.

fine laundry, weak ending

another good laundry universe story (no Bob or Mo or even PHANGs, all new characters). weak ending that sneaks up and then just ends.

A spin-off, not a sequel. Great world building

I bought this blindly while going through the Laundry Files books (hoping for some Bob and Mo time), and was not expecting what this book would do to the series. This went from James Bond to Oceans Eleven having tea with the Librarians, and I am honestly here for it.

It was not the change I wanted or expected, but this outside view away from Mahogany Row, the new PM, and the CO was refreshing.

For readers that have gotten this far in the series, it's kinda like being able to look through Johnny McTavish's (only listened to the series, so don't know how he spells it in the books) past self working through a hecked up world while trying to be ordinary.

Great listen. Worth a credit.

Good story, I like the tie in.

I really like the way this novel works in the timeline of the laundry. Eveie and Jeremy's mom were part of the Prosperity cult from "The Apocalypse Codex"! It gives a different view of the world of Case Nightmare Green.

Mythos Shenanigans

Super great. Fantastically weird. Wonderfully read. A neato departure from the usual doings of The Laundry and out into the lives of “Average Londoners” during the reign of an Elder god as the PM. Nice one Charlie.

Wonderfully created story with new characters.

I don't consider this a Laundry Files book, but it is set in the world of the Laundry Files.

All the characters are new, but all are immediately intriguing and you don't want the story to stop! The relationships are complex, the new abilities interesting. You will love it .

not the best laundry file

I love the laundry files, but this one was a slog. the last third of the book picked up and caught my interest, but even just listening to the audiobook this took me months I had to keep coming back to it.
