About this listen

Long regarded as an anachronism, the Peculiar Crimes Unit is to be disbanded. For octogenarian detectives Arthur Bryant and John May, it seems retirement is now the only option. But then a headless body is found in a freezer, and a suspicious, gigantic figure has been spotted - dressed in deerskin and sporting antlers made of knives. It looks like the PCU are back in business...

Came across Bryant and May when one of the titles was on offer on Audible. So entertaining, great stories they are a classic double act, fast paced and great background information on London threaded throughout. Now i'm completely hooked and am working my way through from book two onwards, it's a shame Book 1 isn't on Audible. Tim Goodman's narration is outstanding, great character voices and he gets it right with the accents and is very consistent.

Bryant and May Addict!

very good story if a tad far fetched. narrator got accents mixed up at times but does well to manage so many different characters. didn't like Liberty being killed off...very sad as Janice's character deserved a bit of happiness.

enjoyable

I love these books.
The stories are riveting (and just a little bit daft) and the reader is superb... perfect emotion and voicing.
Worth more than 5 stars.

Probably the best reader ever.

Came across this by accident and am so pleased, I'm ignoring family and chores until I get to the end. The characters and narration are brilliant. Story may be a bit far fetched but I am enjoying the historical details and occasional laugh out loud humour. Can't wait to get the rest.

What a gem

If you could sum up Bryant and May On the Loose in three words, what would they be?

Interesting as well as clever.

What did you like best about this story?

Distinctive variety of characters. Fascinating historical facts . Now when I visit London I often see it from a different perspective.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

The narrator has the right voice for the main characters of Bryant and May. However the rest of the characters, especially the younger ones are made to sound like characters from a children's book, instead of the flawed adults that they are.

Clever mix of history and fiction
