Acerca de esta escucha
From the award-winning author of Seven Kinds of Hell comes an intriguing new tale that brings the supernatural thrills of the Fangborn world to Sherlock Holmes's nineteenth-century London.
On the surface, Amelia Vernet appears to be the great detective's quiet sixteen-year-old cousin. But her innocent exterior conceals an important fact: Amelia is a member of the Fangborn, a secret family of werewolves, vampires, and oracles sworn to protect Ordinary humans, and she uses her Fangborn werewolf gifts to help Holmes solve the curious cases that cross the doorstep of 221B Baker Street.
When the Baker Street Irregulars show up at Holmes's residence with an unconscious boy in tow and reports of a kidnapping, the detective and Amelia spring into action - but the case quickly proves to be most perplexing indeed. And when they realize their new enemy's terrible intentions, the pair must fight back with all their wits and strength before their lives - and those of all Fangborn - are destroyed forever.

Envious queen? Evil stepmother? Kidnapping hag? Elsinora, Gwendolyn, and Marguerite are through with warts-and-all tabloids, ugly lies, and the three ungrateful brats who pitted them against each other and the world. But maybe there’s more to the stories than even the Wickeds know. Is it time to finally get revenge? After all, they’re due for a happily-enough-ever-after. Even if they have to write it themselves.

Spencer Quinn’s first original audio short story reveals how everyone’s favorite detective duo - Chet the Dog and P.I. Bernie Little - came to meet before their first big case in Dog On It. As fans know, Chet first met Bernie on that fateful day when he flunked out of K-9 police school. The details of that day, though, have always remained a little vague (like so much in Chet’s doggy brain). All we know is that Chet had been the best leaper in his K-9 class, but for some reason he failed his final leaping test...and that a cat was involved...and that there was some blood. But whose?

Each flight contains a dreadful monster, ranging from a diamond-scaled dragon to a pack of slavering goblins. Should a prince battle his way to the top, he will be rewarded with a golden sword - and the lovely Princess Floralinda. But no prince has managed to conquer the first flight yet, let alone get to the 40th. In fact, the supply of fresh princes seems to have quite dried up.

London, 1882. Alec Lonsdale, a young reporter on the Pall Mall Gazette, is working on a story about a fatal house fire. But the postmortem on the victim produces shocking results: Patrick Donovan's death was no accident. But why would someone murder a humble shop assistant and steal part of his brain? When a second body is discovered, its throat cut, and then a third, Lonsdale and his spirited female colleague, Hulda Friederichs, begin to uncover evidence of a conspiracy that reaches to the highest echelons of Victorian society.

In the sleepy Bavarian town of Gesternstadt, gossip was viewed by many as a local sport, a popular hobby, a harmless pastime that showed only the depth and enduring nature of the interest of one neighbour for another. In Gretel’s opinion, however, tittle-tattle sowed the seeds of malice among the fertile soil of jealousy, often watered by the tears of its victims. So it was that upon hearing from brother Hans of the whispers concerning a young woman, a married man and a thwarted lover, Gretel is compelled to rise from her beloved day bed to set things to rights.

Convinced me to avoid the Fangborn series
This badly reimagines Sherlock Holmes in the Fangdom world of vampires, werewolves, and oracles. Holmes is a vampire that needs sunlight, Watson is a human unaware of the monsters in his midst, and Amelia is a teenage werewolf. Why? I’m not entirely sure. The story was shallow and sometimes just plain silly, with awkward writing like having Amelia randomly stumble upon the bad guys so she could overhear them explain their entire evil plan- as if. From the cover art, I thought this might be grittier, but this is cartoonish and without any true sense of menace or danger. I wouldn’t even call this YA; it’s more of a tween novella.
Near as I can tell, the actual series has no Sherlock Holmes connection. But, even excluding that, the writing was so clunky and “elementary” 😉 that I have no desire to put myself through a full length book in this world.
