Historia
England, 1865: Newspaper columnist Lady Katherine Bascomb finds herself the subject of speculation when her latest article leads to an arrest in the murders plaguing London. The English believe women ought not to write about such vulgar things as crime, and a particularly attractive detective inspector is incensed that she's interfered with his investigation. To escape her sudden notoriety, Katherine heads to the country - only to witness a murder upon her arrival.

Historia
From the Gilded Age until 1914, more than 100 American heiresses invaded Britannia and swapped dollars for titles - just like Cora Crawley, Countess of Grantham, the first of the Downton Abbey characters Julian Fellowes was inspired to create after reading To Marry An English Lord. Filled with vivid personalities, gossipy anecdotes, grand houses, and a wealth of period details-plus quotes and the finer points of Victorian and Edwardian etiquette - To Marry An English Lord is social history at its liveliest and most accessible.

interesting in short bits, can be a tad dry
Revisado: 03-24-24
Very interesting but fairly dry. It was good to listen to it in short bits, as again it was a lot of facts and information which could be dry. A PDF really should have been included for the photographs as this was such a large portion of the narrative

Historia
When a man from Callum's past turns up at our door claiming to have lost both the last herd of unicorns in England and his sister, I knew it should be a hard pass. The past has teeth. But old debts plus a damsel in distress means Callum just can't say no. G&C London, Private Investigators, are plunging deep into the magical underbelly of Leeds, and we're going to have our work cut out for us. Never mind the criminal dynasties, cross-dressing trolls, trained attack lizards, and philosophical donkeys - we need to find the sister and get out before the Watch get involved.

really enjoyed the third installment of the GC London series. The town of Dimly is full of the most creative characters I've read in a long time. Interesting and adventurous plot and great narration.

Historia
Find a missing book. That was the job the woman in the Doc Martens gave us. Easy money, right? Only now it seems she's actually an ancient, powerful sorcerer, and the book is a Book of Power that doesn't want to be found. It wants to tear reality apart at the seams, and it'll use anyone it can to do it. So now we've got one spectacularly displeased sorcerer, a hungry, still-missing book, a dentist with bad hygiene, and a neighbourhood having some reality issues to deal with. Plus about a day before the book turns our world - and us - inside out.

I really enjoyed this book. Even with magic and talking cats it's not a 'young adult' story, much more urban fantasy. everything adds up to a promising start for a series

Historia
May 1912. After the previous year’s deadly heatwave, it’s been an uneventful spring in Littleton Cotterell. Though for Lady Hardcastle and her fiercely loyal lady’s maid Flo, at least there are the provincial delights of the village’s inaugural art exhibition—and bicycle race—to look forward to. But at the exhibition opening, there’s a panicked shout of ‘Fire!’ In the confusion, the main attraction—an extremely expensive book—is stolen from under everyone’s nose, as is a valuable painting lent by Sir Hector Farley-Stroud.

best one yet
Revisado: 09-09-23
I love all of the Lady Hardcastle books, but some stories are a little better than others. This is the best one so far with all the old characters and a couple of new ones. I enjoyed hearing more of Flo's history with the circus. Can't wait for the next adventure!

Historia
All legends are born of truths. And just as much lies. These are mine. Judge me for what you will. But you will hear my story first. I buried the village of Ampur under a mountain of ice and snow. Then I killed their god. I've stolen old magics and been cursed for it. I started a war with those that walked before mankind and lost the princess I loved, and wanted to save. I've called lightning and bound fire. I am legend. And I am a monster.

Amazing story, narration annoying
Revisado: 09-23-22
The story is incredible-epic in length, scope, and beauty of writing. The changing timeline of the main character was at times a bit frustrating, mostly because I became involved in that time line and It did take a bit to adjust back to the new timeline of the character. Overall the world building and sheer scale of the book is impressive, even more so when taking into account the beauty of Virdi's style.
The narration is annoying, some of the characters voices (mostly the women) hurt to listen to. I almost stopped a couple of times but the story was good enough I continued. By the end I won't say the narration grew on me, just annoyed me a little less.

One dimensional characters
Revisado: 09-13-22
Started out fairly interesting, but quickly became tiresome. The characters are one-dimensional and unbelievable and the plot doesn't go anywhere. Struggled to finish hoping for some kind of payoff, but there wasn't one.
