The Village Library Demon-Hunting Society

De: C. M. Waggoner

Narrado por: Cindy Piller

A librarian with a knack for solving murders realizes there is something decidedly supernatural afoot in her little town in this cozy fantasy mystery.

Librarian Sherry Pinkwhistle keeps finding bodies—and solving murders. But she's concerned by just how many killers she's had to track down in her quaint village. None of her neighbors seem surprised by the rising body count...but Sherry is becoming convinced that whatever has been causing these deaths is unnatural.

When someone close to Sherry ends up dead, and her cat, Lord Thomas Crowell, becomes possessed by what seems to be an ancient demon, Sherry begins to think she’s going to need to become an exorcist as well as an amateur sleuth. With the help of her town's new priest, and an assortment of friends who dub themselves the "Demon-Hunting Society," Sherry will have to solve the murder and get rid of a demon.

This riotous mix of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Murder, She Wrote is a lesson for demons and murderers alike: Never mess with a librarian.

Cozy Fun

Great murder mystery with a fantastical twist, highly recommend if you want a short and fun book

Well-Plotted Fun

Five stars for the wonderful performance. Whoever picked the narrator was spot on. She was delightful, as were the characters in this story. Not cliched, full of surprises and a kind ending. I’m looking forward to more.

Cozy Supernatural Whodunit Murder Mystery

Cozy characters. And clearly inspired by Agatha Christie Ms Marple series. Perfect read with coffee, a demonic cat, and snuggly blanket

Very enjoyable

At first I thought these book was my bedtime reading. Quickly I was making time to continue listening. I highly recommend.

I literally has no idea what was going on…

Well, I listened to the entire book thinking it was going to be about demon hunting… mmm not really. Then I thought it was going to be about a murder mystery… not really. A talking cat… nope. T group of tightly knit friends who do sleuthing.. nu’uh.
Basically apparently it’s an old lady ( what is that? You wouldn’t know by her actions it manners that she was an old lady) who really seems to be stuck on herself. And doesn’t actually realize how she is weakly the root cause of the murders… very disjointed. 2 dimensional characters. Too many characters.
To be fair… if she had made this five books and made the characters multi faceted and put some real work into developing the demon and what is supposed to be a possession, it could be really good. Charlotte is an amazing character, not much of her. The priests twin HAPPENS to know the dead man ( her boyfriend) ‘s kid… and happens to just be there… too much stuff squeezed into too short of a book.

The narration is good. The story has potential. But it’s very disjointed…
