Acerca de esta escucha
We’re Supernatural Protection & Investigations, known as SPI. Things that go bump in the night, the monsters you thought didn’t exist? We battle them and keep you safe. But some supernatural baddies are just too big to contain, even for us. When I moved to New York to become a world famous journalist, I never imagined that snagging a job at a seedy tabloid would change my career path from trashy reporter to undercover agent. I’m Makenna Fraser, a Seer for SPI. I can see through any disguise, shield, or spell that a paranormal pest can come up with. I track down creatures and my partner, Ian Byrne, takes them out.Our cases are generally pretty routine, but a sickle-wielding serial killer has been prowling the city’s subway tunnels. And the murderer’s not human. The fiend in question, a descendant of Grendel - yes, that Grendel - shares his ancestor’s hatred of parties, revelry, and drunkards. And with New Year’s Eve in Times Square only two days away, we need to bag him quickly. Because if we don’t find him - and the organization behind him - by midnight, our secret’s out and everyone’s time is up.

My name is Raine Benares. I'm a seeker, a finder of things lost and people missing. I've never had to do both in one day, or had this many lives at stake - including mine. The search for a missing ring leads me to the abduction of eight magically gifted children. Their souls were stolen while they slept, and unless I find those souls by sunrise, their bodies will die.

Historia
On the outside, Dina Demille is the epitome of normal. She runs a quaint Victorian Bed and Breakfast in a small Texas town, owns a Shih Tzu named Beast, and is a perfect neighbor, whose biggest problem should be what to serve her guests for breakfast. But Dina is...different: Her broom is a deadly weapon; her Inn is magic and thinks for itself. Meant to be a lodging for otherworldly visitors, the only permanent guest is a retired Galactic aristocrat who can’t leave the grounds because she’s responsible for the deaths of millions and someone might shoot her on sight.

"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, the whole series! I loved the story, the world Lisa Shearin creates is interesting and her characters are great.What other book might you compare The Grendel Affair to and why?
My jam is Jana Deleon, Ilona Andrews, Seanan McGuire, Janet Evonavich, Molly Harper. So if you like any of their series you'll like this one.Great world and characters

very engaging

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
I think the premise of the book was probably fine. I can't rate it or the story appropriately because I did get through much of it.Has The Grendel Affair turned you off from other books in this genre?
No. My library only had the second one in the series and I wanted to read this one first. I will probably read the second anyway because the storyline has promise.How could the performance have been better?
I don't know what state her accent was from but I just couldn't listen to it any further than I did.I just couldn't listen any further

pretty good story
Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.
Probably the most annoying thing was at the end of all of her sentences she extended her vowels for too long and hard snapped her consonances. I found that I was rushing through the book just to stop listening to her.
I'll probably keep reading the series, but I won't listen to another one.
Narrator kills flow of story

Would you listen to The Grendel Affair again? Why?
oh yes. loved this book... I will listen to it again, and I think all the family will love it also. Good fun.What other book might you compare The Grendel Affair to and why?
Don't know if there is another book like this one. This book was good for all ages. And that makes it stand in lane that does not have to many books in it.What about Johanna Parker’s performance did you like?
I like the sound of Johanna's voice. it goes very well in this book.give me a Grendel, lol

On the other hand I am quite fond of an original story, great characters, fun, action, all the good things that go into a good story.
That's why I like Harry Dresden, Alex Verus, Bob Howard, and now Makenna Frazier-our heroine.
It's original, it's got it's share of fun, some twists, the action keeps moving, it's a great listen. It feels personal. And intimate.
Really good narrator. I really hope they get her again for book 2, which I hope will be out soon.
I liked it. Enough to get the next one as soon as it comes out.
You should give it a try, you'll like it.
Hoping book 2 isn't far behind!

First, the narrator's accent was all over the place! All over! For example, a British character would speak, and she would switch from almost British to American southern to New York to unidentifiable and back through them all again. It was extremely distracting and made it hard to keep track of who was talking at any given time.
Secondly, the story was pretty good, but the prose was hard to follow often throughout the story. Information was shared at random intervals and completely unrelated to the given situation, or almost too late. Some better editing would have made for a better experience.
I will probably listen to the next one, but I am hoping for some improvement if I am going to continue on in this series. The premise is very interesting, but not good enough to contend with these issues across multiple books.
What accent?
