The Hexologists, Iz and Warren Wilby, are quite accustomed to helping desperate clients with the bugbears of city life. Aided by hexes and a bag of charmed relics, the Wilbies have recovered children abducted by chimney-wraiths, removed infestations of barb-nosed incubi, and ventured into the Gray Plains of the Unmade to soothe a troubled ghost. Well-acquainted with the weird, they never shy away from a challenging case.

Didn’t really like it; printed or Kindle version would be better
Revisado: 10-06-23
First of all, in this audiobook, the cast of characters is not presented before the story. It’s actually chapter 33, but should be listened to first if you like to keep track of characters that way. It helps to know who’s related to whom. Audible should offer a PDF of the lists and maps (which are in the printed book) once the book is purchased.
Second, I wish a different narrator had been chosen. I couldn’t tell the speakers apart based just on her voice, even if a man and woman were having the conversation. There were some non-human characters that I didn’t like the voices of either.
Lastly, The Hexologists was not AWESOME like the Senlin Ascends series, so I was a little disappointed. I can’t wait to read An Empyreal Retinue.

These guys at Soundbooth Theater are awesome! I don’t think I’d read this book in book format, but the audiobook is terrific and makes the whole story really come alive.

A floating fortress occupied by warrior gnomes. A castle made of sand. A derelict submarine guarded by malfunctioning machines. A haunted crypt surrounded by lethal traps. It was supposed to be easy. One bubble. Four castles. Fifteen days. Capture each one, and the stairwell is unlocked. Here's the thing. It's never easy. Carl and his team can't go it alone. Not this time. They must rely on the help of the low-level, I-can't-believe-these-idiots-are-still-alive crawlers trapped in the bubble with them. But can they be trusted?

A boy’s frozen body is found trapped in the ice of a Minneapolis lake. The horrifying discovery leads Detective Jude Fontaine and her partner, Uriah Ashby, to more bodies in the ice, all of twelve-year-old boys missing for twenty years. Then, in one of the worst blizzards the city has ever seen, a four-year-old is abandoned on Jude’s doorstep. The child can’t tell them where he’s from, who his parents are, or how he got there. He doesn’t even know his name. But in his unspoken language, Jude reads something horrifying - a connection to the dead boys.

Ex-military policeman Jack Reacher is a drifter. He’s just passing through Margrave, Georgia, and in less than an hour, he’s arrested for murder. Not much of a welcome. All Reacher knows is that he didn’t kill anybody. At least not here. Not lately. But he doesn’t stand a chance of convincing anyone. Not in Margrave, Georgia. Not a chance in hell.

Waaaay to violent for me
Revisado: 11-12-22
I loved the story line and the some of the characters, but did it have to be quite SO violent? Especially the threats regarding the young girl. And Rosco? She didn’t seem like the sharpest tool in the shed. Couldn’t figure out why Reacher was so attracted to her (besides sexually).

When a young woman is found brutally murdered in her own apartment with an intricate pattern of lines carved into her face, Copenhagen police detectives Jeppe Korner and Anette Werner are assigned to the case. Soon, they establish a link between the victim, Julie Stender, and her landlady, Esther de Laurenti, who’s a bit too fond of drink and the host of raucous dinner parties with her artist friends. Esther also turns out to be a budding novelist - and when Julie turns up as a murder victim in the unfinished mystery she’s writing, the link between fiction and real life grows.

Welcome to the Nightside. For those foolish enough to seek it out, it's a literal tourist trap, populated by beings, human and otherwise, who have never seen the sun rise. A place where your dreams can come true—as long as your nightmares don't get you first.

Not what I normally listen to, but my husband has me hooked! I love John Taylor, Susie Shooter, and all the other well-defined characters! It would be great to see this series made into movies.

In 2030, a grieving archeologist arrives in the Arctic Circle to continue the work of his recently deceased daughter at the Batagaika Crater, where researchers are studying long-buried secrets now revealed in melting permafrost, including the perfectly preserved remains of a girl who appears to have died of an ancient virus. Once unleashed, the Arctic plague will reshape life on Earth for generations to come, quickly traversing the globe, forcing humanity to devise a myriad of moving and inventive ways to embrace possibility in the face of tragedy.

Excellent!

Each chapter is a vignette on life during and after a virus plagues the earth, from the perspective of people living through or after it. They all tie together in an amazing way. I loved it even though much of it is heartbreaking.
