About this listen

Dorian Robert-Houdin, the three-and-a-half-foot gargoyle chef who fancies himself a modern-day Poirot, is slowly turning into stone, and it's up to Zoe Faust to unravel the alchemical secrets that can save him. When they discover that a long-lost stone gargoyle with a connection to Dorian has reappeared in Europe, the stakes are even higher. From Portland to Paris, Zoe searches for the hidden knowledge she needs, but a cold case that harkens back to 1942 throws her off course. With an ailing friend desperately trying to discover his own elixir of life and a new romantic interest offering the first chance at love she's had in nearly a century, Zoe is torn between a dangerous form of alchemy and her desire for a safer life.

For me, a good audiobook is one where the author's ability to create truly wonderful, rounded characters and weave intricate plots *and* a narrator who can animate the players of the tale so that they become people (including the gargoyles!).

I'm a huge St Mary's fan and now an equally huge fan of the Accidental Alchemist!

Thank you both for the amazing work you've created!!!

Gigi Pandian & Julia Motyka dream team!

I have adored all the Zoe Faust books and this one is as wonderful as it's predecessors. I just love Dorian!! Light, bubbly prose that is just a pleasure to hear and the narrator does a fabulous job. Bring on the next one!!

Another treasure of a book
