Dr Ruth Galloway, forensic archaeologist, spends a lot of time looking at death. But now death has found her, with the news that her long-time friend Dan Golding has been killed in a house fire.

Ruth's grief soon turns to suspicion of arson when she receives a desperate letter from Dan, sent the day before he died. He had made a ground-breaking discovery - and was petrified of the consequences.

Ruth is compelled to travel north to investigate further, alongside DCI Harry Nelson who is also drawn into the case. But where Ruth goes, so does her young daughter, Kate. This time, the risks are even higher.

I found this series through an Audible offer that turned out to be No.6, the Outcast Dead, and got hooked enough to buy the rest and listen from the beginning.

I enjoyed them all, but this one stands out for me because of the Arthurian theme. Did he exist, and if so who was he? I've read so many theories and the Northern British ones are fascinating. Yes, this is a novel, but so are the late Mary Stewart's Crystal Cave series and they are brilliant. (Wish Audible would record them, unabridged)

With this you get everything - a classic Ruth Galloway book, well written, with developments in the lives of all the regular characters. A murder mystery that keeps you guessing a lot of the time. Archaeology proving more interesting than I ever imagined. Plus King Arthur!

Yes, Ruth still dithers when she should act, never seems to learn from previous risky experiences and often you want to shake her in irritation but that's the person she is and the mark of how well Elly Griffiths has created her as an individual. Well read as always, and with a wonderfully intriguing twist...

No spoilers! Listen for yourself...

My favourite Ruth Galloway so far - with a twist!

Would you consider the audio edition of Dying Fall to be better than the print version?

I love audio books, so I'm already a convert.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Ruth is great, trying to balance work, motherhood and police work. I like cathbad too, he adds a bit of mystery to the proceedings.

Which character – as performed by Clare Corbett – was your favourite?

This was the first Elly Griffiths book I've read so I had to go back to number one in the series, it's worth doing as the characters grow with you.

Another good Ruth Galloway mystery.

I’m a huge fan of the Ruth Galloway series and this one was a good listen as usual, but i just though it was a bit far fetched. The new narrator took a bit of getting used to; the northern accents were a bit too “ee by gum” for my taste, but I did like the new Cathbad.

Not the best but still good

Good story, good narrator apart from the males voices which were awful, however stuck with it as she was on whole good and I liked the child's voice, she sounded as if she has inhaled helium beforehand.n

Shame about the men's voices

How / why / wtf?!? The narrator is so bad which is such a shame and really detracts from the story. I mean it’s entertaining because it’s so bad but obviously distracting. As if Cathbad and Kate’s voices weren’t bad enough, what the actual fuck is top of the list, Clough’s accent?!? It’s pure comedy for all the wrong reasons. But at least the writing and story are as good as ever. Thank god I only have one or two left with the narrator and the rest are back to the original one. If you can I would read these ones and skip the soul deep nails on chalk board reaction every time Kate speaks.

Jeez ......
