About this listen

Bram Stoker kept secret a tale even more terrifying than Dracula.

It begins among the Carpathian peaks, when an intrepid explorer discovers a mysterious golden box. She brings it back with her to the foggy streets of Victorian London, unaware of its dangerous power…or that an evil beyond imagining has already taken root in the city.

Stoker, a successful theater manager but frustrated writer, is drawn into a deadly web spun by the wealthy founders of a mission house for the poor. Far from a safe haven, the mission harbors a dark and terrifying secret.

To save the souls of thousands, Stoker - aided by the explorer and a match girl grieving the loss of her child - must pursue an enemy as ancient as the Saharan sands where it originated. Their journey will take them through the city’s overgrown graveyards and rat-infested tunnels and even onto the maiden voyage of the world’s first “unsinkable” ship…

I liked this a lot, especially the twist towards the end. I don't know why there were 'Americanisms' though - especially as the narrator has an English accent.. Surely Americans know what a pavement is, a railway is etc? A minor point but it did become annoying.. Already!!!

Real Indiana Jones stuff, enjoyable

It's an interesting story, but only tolerable if you slow the narration down to 0.85. Otherwise, it's like listening to a gabbling teenage boy who has just hit puberty. Sorry Gary, but calm down!

Narrator tolerable at 0.85
