Paws vs. Claws

A Queenie & Arthur Novel

By: Spencer Quinn

Narrated by: Rachel Jacobs, Jay Aaseng

From New York Times best seller Spencer Quinn comes book 2 in the laugh-out-loud series about the most epic rivalry of our time...Arthur the dog vs. Queenie the cat.

Queenie the cat has a big problem. And for once, it's not the slobbery, overly-excited creature who also lives at Blackberry Hill Inn. Sweet Lady Emsworth, the neighbor's prize cow, has disappeared, meaning no morning cream for Queenie. And when Queenie's not happy, no one is happy....

Things aren't looking great for Arthur the dog, either. His beloved humans, twins Harmony and Bro, are distressed about the strange activity in their town. Mysterious hi-tech people are suddenly very interested in nearby Catastrophe Falls, bills are piling up at their mom's inn...and now the twins might be hiding a fugitive?!

Arthur is desperate to help but for some reason, no one seems to think he's up to the task. (Could that be because he can't remember what happened more than 10 seconds ago? Surely not!)

Can Arthur save the day - and become a hero in Queenie's eyes - without making a disastrous splash?

A fun listen for kids and adults

This is a funny tale told from the point of view of a cat and a dog. They take turns narrating the action/mystery adventures with their people. The Dog reader is a bit better in my opinion. The cat reader isn't as pleasant to listen to, but she isn't bad.
I could see Paws vs. Claws being a great travel book for everyone to enjoy on those long car rides.

Super fun

This is a great book to read the best book I have ever heard wow

series is narrated by 2 voice artists w voice-fry

Excellent series by a talented, prolific and versatile author, sadly paired with two narrators, both with significant voice fry, making listening to this fun story very unpleasant, narrations is so grating and annoying. Oh where is Jim Frangione when you need him. I am confident that he could successfully perform, Queenie and Author far, far better

Great writing!

Great writing and narration was very good too. Adult reader and I loved the characters!

Annoying narration

Narrative voice for Queenie is so annoying I couldn't get past the first few chapters.
I enjoy Quinn's writing and I think the story will be good. I only hope when I read the print version I won't "hear" this Queenie's voice.
