Tripping the Night Fantastic

De: Andrew Chapman

Narrado por: Alan R. Gron

Tripping the Night Fantastic is essentially a whodunit, but one that is far from the traditional. There is a murder, there is a sleuth, and there is a solution, but in tone and humour it is somewhere between House, M.D. and Trainspotting.

Charlie Deavon is a British author who meets a fan (the sexually troublesome Amelia Heart) in a pub. The following morning she is found dead.

The main suspect in the case is Simon, Charlie's agent. Having avoided the police, Charlie, Simon, and the local bartender try to solve the case together. The three men, what with the stress of it all, turn to a new drug called Merlin, which allows them to control and share hallucinations.

From then on, they trip and hallucinate their way through to the story's conclusion.

Charlie and co. like to drink. Only they don't so much go for a drink as go for a splash. They wallow in it like mad fish. It really is no way to go about solving crimes.

Unendingly Hilarious!

The book was great. I just couldn't stop laughing, chuckling and chortling at all the antics of Charlie, Keep and Simon. All the collective hallucinations, the telepathy, the "Keep, your fu/$ing with me, right?" was particularly good. The merlin even seemed to become permanent at some point. It was just all awesome. Alan R. Gron did an amazing job with all the characters and made everything even more entertaining.

Trippin'

First off the narration is fantastic. Alan R. Gronis is an amazing story teller and I enjoyed the voices he used for the different characters..

As far as the story goes, this book is a wild ride. It's quite funny and has a very unique story. The characters were enjoyable and I liked their interactions. I personally think this would make a good movie.

The Hangover+an acid trip

This is one of those books that kind of puts you at a loss for words. It was funny, and I enjoyed it, but I'm not sure I can really explain why. The best I can come up with is a comparison, to The Hangover, but that doesn't really do it justice. Imagine getting a story from someone on an acid trip about a previous night of drugs and partying, and that sort of gets you there. If you've ever been the DD at a party and enjoyed watching the drunks be drunks I think you'll enjoy this.

Very Entertaining

This book is great!! There is telepathy as well as twists and turns you are not expecting. It is very enjoyable to listen to. I was funny.
