Interesting and Different

A truly original story that focuses on a different way of thinking. Wonderful narration. Worth the listen.

Wonderful Adirondack Mystery

This was my re-visit of Here be Monsters having read it when it was first published. I am not usually one to re-read a book so I was curious as to how it would be to hear a book I had already read. The only difference was that while the reader did a great job , the "voice" was not the same as what I "heard" when I read it. That actually made the book "new" for me. I love the book, the characters, the story and the Adirondack setting. I highly recommend this book.

Creative mysteries with a twist of wit.

I'm entranced by the beauty of New York's Adirondacks and by a well written mystery. Having read all of Jamie Sheffield's extremely well written mysteries - with a central character unique to this genre - i was interested to find out whether Here Be Monsters could be enhanced in audio format. It certainly can be. I highly recommend that you first read and then listen to Here Be Monsters. This is Jamie's first full length mystery. The Audible reader is the personification of Tyler Cunningham, no question about it. You are swept into Tyler's world, to his unemotional logic and to his dry wit. Sit back and enjoy the ride.

Informative and intriguing

Michael Pauley's narrative gave a keen insight and depth into a hero who is complex in his quirks as he is with his precision to details and time. Interesting read.
