Audiobooks!
Nov. 28th, 2020 08:34 amI've been listening to a lot of audiobooks.
The Sugared Game by K. J. Charles, read by Cornell Collins. This is #2 in the Will Darling series. I love the Will voice and the Maisie voice. And he does everything with the right feeling. Recommend! Can't wait for the last in the series, Subtle Blood.
The Big Book of Christmas Mysteries edited by Otto Penzler [who has the best job in the whole world as far as I'm concerned! Mystery book shop owner! Sign me up!] Read by Cat Gould and Matthew Lloyd Davies. This is a behemoth: 32+ hours of every good Christmas mystery short story written in English. "The Blue Carbuncle," of course. Father Brown's "The Flying Stars." Marjorie Bowen's "Cambric Tea." Stanley Ellin's "Death on Christmas Eve." The voices are okay, suited to some stories better than others. Davies has a tendency to make every American sound like they're from New York or Texas.
Injury Time and After Effects both by Catherine Aird and both read by Derek Perkins. The first is short stories, some featuring Sloane and Crosby, some not. The second is a Sloan and Crosby novel. Perkins does a decent job. I still miss Robin Bailey but since he's dead, I shall have to make do.
I also listened to the BBC 4 Radio Extra of Anthony Berkeley's The Poisoned Chocolates Case which is the Shedunnit book club book of the month. Discussion opens on Monday!
