Harley Merlin can sense people's emotions, among other things. It's how she snagged her first job pinpointing cheaters at a casino. But she has no clue where she got these freakish powers because she spent her childhood jumping from home to home in the foster system, and her father left her with nothing more than a cryptic note. Then she crosses paths with a terrifyingly real monster. Which is when a mysterious and annoyingly arrogant young warlock named Wade Crowley steps in, introducing her to a hidden world of beasts, magicals, and covens riddled with secrets.

Duplicate recording
This seems to be a later reissue of the book, same reader. What is said here is equally true there. A straight forward tale of horror at a British boarding school, with staff, grandmothers and aunts of the worst sort. No joy, no humor, but not as depressing as Snow Spider. Thankfully, Charlie has a kindly "widowed" mother, a good uncle and good friends. It is a very different story from Potterverse, and for that reason I put it right up there as a "must read" with the more light-hearted classics of Hogwarts, Prydain, etc.
Beale is very expressive but too slow, so bump up the playback speed.

Mediocre at best.
Underwhelming, lackluster, and mediocre. Not without a few good punches though. But I won't be finishing the series. The narrator did a good job though.
