About this listen

Five tales that prove there is always more to the story.

"Sharp Claws" by James Agee Jr.

Everyone thinks that they know the story of Red Riding Hood, but what if events did not happen the way they have been told? This retelling shows there is always more to the story than meets the eye. Sometimes a complex tragedy can have a simple explanation.

"The Muddy Death" by Elaine Arrow

Private Investigator Noah Foster investigates the disappearance of a teenage girl in a small town. As he investigates, he finds himself drawn into the mysterious swamp, and he can’t shake the feeling there is a connection between the monstrous black horse he finds and the missing girl. If Noah can’t find the girl, he might be the next one to vanish in the swamp.

"The Great Vanishing Mike" by O. Carciente

A young teleporter named Mike tries to grow his business while at the same time getting involved with a simple act of supervillainy.

"The Diary of Cinderella’s Sister" by Katie Johns

Sydney Sullivan and her friends make up the exclusive high-born, high-fashion, high-maintenance Fashion Club clique at their prep school. They just turned sweet 16 and rule their school and social lives, but when new girl Allice Rend moves in and fits in with them, can Sydney still get her way? In her diary, she bears all about her friends, her foes, her crush, her classes, and more!

"Minion Contract" by Omar Velasco

How is it that a supervillain makes his employees do what he wants? What are their responsibilities? What are their obligations? For that there is a contract. A minion contract.

This is an enjoyable collection of short stories with a bit of a twist on the take or a twist in the tale element to them. Being short stories they are easily accessible and fit around daily routines. They feel like a mix between a modern day Rolld Dahl and Crackanory with a Minion Contract thrown in for good measure!

The narration is crystal clear and conveys the tales well, but would benefit from being more engaging, with a very few parts sounding a bit clipped. That's a minor element that does not detract from the audiobook overall, which is entertaining and humorous.
