Blood and Whispers

De: A.C. Haskins

Narrado por: Matt Godfrey

The most dangerous weapon is a past scorned.

Thomas Quinn is a sorcerer haunted by the memories of the things he's done over centuries of service to the Arcanum. From battling djinn to killing demigods and dragons, the scars and nightmares have left him a broken man. He has long retired from that life, running an occult shop in Philadelphia for the past several decades, wanting nothing more than to be left alone with his books and his whiskey and his shame.

But when two detectives come to his door asking about a brutal ritual murder in his city, Quinn must reluctantly take up the mantle of a sorcerer of the Arcanum once more, and face down those who would threaten the fragile peace between the human and magical worlds. His investigation takes him from the streets of Philadelphia to the court of a Faerie King as he races to stop the apocalypse.

Thomas Quinn was prepared to fight rogue sorcerers and Fae monsters. But the greatest threat he faces may be his own inner demons....

A great read..!!!

Loved the story. The book was entertaining and suspenseful. I am looking forward to a second.

I’m bummed the next book isn’t out yet

The characters are likable and the story draws you in from the start. I’m just disappointed there’s no second book to listen to yet.

For fans of the dresden novels

Like I said in the title this is for fans of the dresden novels. Take dresden add a century or two of trauma and you get our hero. A man who has retreated from the world is once again called back into action because of a serial killer from the spooky side of the street.

Great voice acting and dark fantasy

Blood and Whispers is a mature, well-researched story with an interesting detective angle and some whodunnit involved with common sense clues. The narration was superb and I enjoyed the story from beginning to end!

Excellent book!

A thrilling story of murder, magic, and mystical wonder. I was captivated from the moment we met the main character Quinn until the final page. It’s gory at times but the story is fast moving and engaging. I would maybe call it a Harry Potter type book for adults. So if you like murder mysteries and fantastical creatures grab this book!

Haskins tells a good tale!

Very well done. A compelling story, well written. Unlike many fiction writers, Haskins gets the gun play right. I look forward to more of this.
