About this listen

After discovering just how filled with magic, intrigue, and adventure the parahuman world of being an undead American can be, Fredrick Frankford Fletcher did exactly what was expected - he became a certified parahuman accountant. Myths and legends, as it turns out, are not so great at taking appropriate deductions and keeping their receipts, and Fred is more than happy to return to a life others view as woefully dull, expanding his accounting business to cater to various monsters and their respective financial needs. Said monsters are, unfortunately, still spectacular at pulling Fred into trouble, though. And despite merely wanting to stick with simple paperwork, Fred once again finds that he is going to have to deal with enchanted weaponry, government agents, possessed houses, and one enigmatic dragon's interest. In the parahuman world, any business can turn deadly, even one as mundane as accounting.

What can I say about this book

The characters are compelling and their world is presented in an exquisitely believable manner

And Kirby narration is perfect (I especially love the voice he givens Gideon)

On to book three!!!

Drew is the best

This was a really good, fun read. I was through it in about 2 days. I think this was even better than the first book because each episode didn't have an introduction to who and what Fred was. My only criticism was that the audio was (possibly intentionally) slow, I had a better time listening at 1.20x speed.

Better than the first!

Reminds me a little of the Seanan Maguire “Velveteen” stories. Great world, interesting characters and strong serial stories. The audio book performance is also excellent. Strongly recommend.

Loved it!

most of the book wasn't as gripping as the first, for me. I only enjoyed the last couple of stories. And even then, some parts dragged on a bit longer than others.
It's still a fun, easy listen that I'd recommend.

Cute, but not as good as the first one
