The Album of Dr. Moreau

De: Daryl Gregory

Narrado por: Almarie Guerra, Luis Moreno

Daryl Gregory's The Album of Dr. Moreau combines the science fiction premise of the famous novel by H. G. Wells with the panache of a classic murder mystery and the spectacle of a beloved boy band.

It’s 2001, and the WyldBoyZ are the world’s hottest boy band, and definitely the world’s only genetically engineered human-animal hybrid vocal group. When their producer, Dr. M, is found murdered in his hotel room, the “boyz” become the prime suspects. Was it Bobby the ocelot (“the cute one”), Matt the megabat (“the funny one”), Tim the pangolin (“the shy one”), Devin the bonobo (“the romantic one”), or Tusk the elephant (“the smart one”)? Las Vegas Detective Luce Delgado has only 24 hours to solve a case that goes all the way back to the secret science barge where the WyldBoyZ’ journey first began - a place they used to call home.

WOW

I loved this! Great concept and mystery had me guessing til the end. Highly recommend. Reader was perfect.

A great retelling

A great retelling of Dr Monroe especially with shining a light on the bad side of pop stardom

Excellent for a short book

You just can't help liking and pulling for those guys! They are adorable. I am planning on checking out more of this author's books.

What a great story

Loved the book and the narration. What fun the whole way through. Don’t miss it!

So much fun

So far I haven’t been disappointed with anything I’ve read by Darrell Gregory.

I have to chuckle at the negative reviews, they all seem upset that this wasn’t some serious, dark, intricate tail.

I would think that anybody could figure that out just by reading the title. This was short and fun. I will probably listen to it again at some point.
