The Hell You Say

The Adrien English Mysteries, Book 3

De: Josh Lanyon

Narrado por: Chris Patton

The third novel in the Adrien English series finds the "ill-starred and bookish" mystery writer and bookseller battling demons - maybe literally. After bookstore clerk Angus flees following terrifying death threats, Adrien must contend with a mysterious Satanic cult, a hot and handsome university professor, and his on-again/off-again relationship with closeted LAPD Homicide Detective Jake Riordan. And, oh, yes, murder...

EXCELLENT. BRILLIANT AUTHOR!

Awesome story. The plot is sooo fantastic. I find Adrien a very interesting character. He's smart and a really good amateur sleuth. Full of energy and enthusiasm to pursue the villain/culprit and solve the crime. Jake, on the other hand is a disappointment with his fears and his unwillingness to come out from the closet. He shows his concern for Adrien but at the same time he is not very supportive with Adrien. I hope that with time he will come to terms with his life. Well performed by Chris Paton. Good series.

This is my least favorite of this series

This is my least favorite of this series just because there isn't enough AdrienxJake, and Jake being super horrible.
Chris Patton is awesome as usual.

A really great way to spend 8 hours!

Listening to book 3 is where I finally start to relate and even like Adrien. He's not a super loveable character for me in the first 2 books but he does care about the people around him and he has such a curious little mind that I do find it believable that he would just keep digging himself into these types of situations with murder and Mayhem.

It's a mystery book so there's lots of drama in near misses, death threads, secret societies, and dead bodies but it also has a witty sense of humor. I loved Adrien trying to deal with the workers the agency kept sending him to fill in for Angus and he's inner monologue found me with a smile on my face more than once.

Chris Patton is an excellent narrator, I will definitely be checking out his other work. He makes distinguished voices for all of the main and supporting characters and how those voices haven't changed in the past 3 installments is amazing. He's Jake voice is a special favorite of mine.

on to the 4th book!

Great story. Great narration.

Nice and twisty plot. Mystery. Romance. Dash of humor. Adrien is well thought out character, and the story flows well.

Brilliant!

I had long ago given up on the m/m genre, whether the stories be paranormal or suspenseful or merely contemporary romance, because they all started to run together... just the same old stuff. I've recently discovered, however, that in giving up all together I've been missing out on the writing brilliance of Josh Lanyon.

The Hell You Say is the 3rd book in the Adrien English Mystery series and, so far, my favorite. This story of occult and murder is action packed and fast paced, and simply amazing. Exciting, intriguing, humorous, steamy, and at times even poignant... to say this was entertaining is to say the least!

The audio version is very, very good! Chris Patton's voice is seductive and comfortable and appealing. He does an amazing job of bringing the characters to life, and I can't imagine a more perfect voice for this series.
