About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the moment Dr J. Doyle takes lodgings in Baker Street with the angel Crow, he becomes intimately acquainted with the supernatural and criminal worlds of London.

But living with a rogue angel is not so easy; the pair find themselves drawn into mystery after mystery, from a man kidnapped by a vampire nest to Jack the Ripper's horrific murders.

And besides Doyle's nightmares and shapeshifting, there is the lingering problem of Crow's sense of belonging and the worry that he might Fall....

I loved the Elflands books and was eager for more. This one had a vaguely Sherlock Holmesy feel and I wasn't keen so I took a while to get round to it. I could not have loved this book more.
Easy to read and eagerly devoured! Such imagination, all so marvellously told, and very well narrated. If I had been a Sherlock Holmes fan, I might have caught even more of those references. I loved the two principal characters and found them both fascinating.
A great read!

a nice take on an old classic. I enjoyed the twists and liked the way current topics and issues were addressed.

Good listen

Really like the author's other works and am a sherlock Holmes fan so had to give this a go. the world building was amazing and added a good twist to the stories. I had seen other negative reviews about the narration but found I liked the more dramatic reading and distinct voices the character had, it reminded me of the older Holmes series. The ending did seem a little abrupt but was satisfying overall, definitely going to be one I go back to.

a fun listen

I agree with one review that said the story was best listened to at 1.5 speed. Otherwise the narration is painfully slow. I only listen to books I have read and loved, and I really love this mix of the paranormal and Sherlock Holmes.

I feel like if you like Sherlock both the original stories and the modern adaptation you will adore this. But I also feel like you might not appreciate this if you don't know the original Sherlock stories at all.

Fans of Sherlock will either love or hate this.
