Story
On my last stakeout for Quest Investigations, I nearly got clotheslined by a grove of angry dryads. I expected my bosses to reprimand me, but instead they handed me my first solo assignment. Me! Matt Steinitz, the only human on the Quest roster! Okay, so the mission isn’t exactly demanding. Obviously, the bosses wanted to give me something they think I can’t screw up. I’m determined to show them what I can do, however, so I dive right in with no complaints.

Story
It can safely be said that Lord Barnaby Greenwood is not having the best of Christmases. He’s penniless, up to his eyeballs in debt, and about to lose his estate. Therefore, it’s hardly surprising that when a local property developer offers a lot of money to buy King’s Wood from him, Barnaby is very tempted. But his father had always impressed on him that the green wood was sacred and must be protected at all costs, so he finds himself saying no.

It’s really hard to pretend like life is normal when you’re staring a monster in the eyes, though he’s both tempting and irritating in his human form. I put my days as a hunter behind me, unable to cope with the death and pain anymore, to become an upstanding citizen and for what? To assist Lake, a man who claims he’s not a monster but keeps talking about me like I’m edible and–even worse–wants to woo me?

The unit has never had a human in it. Marcus - or, as I like to call him: Fangy McFangface - would really prefer to keep it that way. He’s grumpy, short-tempered, and broody, but I have a way with words, and I know he’s starting to like me, even if he swears he’s not.

Now, I’m determined to figure out who is responsible for his death…the problem is that Detective Maddox Booker, the one working the case, is a grumpy and stubborn man who wants nothing to do with me and definitely doesn’t believe in ghosts. It doesn’t help that I keep finding myself looking ridiculous in front of the detective, thanks to interfering ghosts who enjoy laughing at my expense.

Publisher's Summary
This case is really going to the dogs....
After I try a little off-the-books interrogation to locate my selkie almost-boyfriend’s nearly-ex-husband (don’t ask, it’s complicated), I’m in the doghouse again with my bosses, who bust me back to surveillance. Ugh. So when another human inexplicably storms into Quest Investigations—something our security spells ought to prevent since I’m supposed to be the only human admitted to our offices—I’m reduced to staking out local fast food restaurants to check out the guy’s alleged sighting of a giant, glowing-eyed, dumpster-diving spectral hound.
Ridiculous, right? Humiliating, too, not to mention boring. But at least they didn’t fire me.
Imagine my surprise when there actually is a giant, glowing-eyed, dumpster-diving spectral hound—one of the Cwn Annwn, Herne the Hunter’s traitor-tracking dog pack, to be exact. Jeez, who let this dog out? It’s my case, though, so it’s up to me—Matt Steinitz, aka Hugh Mann—to return him to Faerie. But while Herne’s normally hopping kennels are inexplicably unpopulated by pups, they’re playing host to one extremely dead body.
Uh oh. Looks like someone’s bite was a lot worse than their bark.
Guess my love life will have to take a back seat again while we nose out the truth.
Dammit.
The Hound of the Burgervilles is the second in the Quest Investigations M/M mystery series, a spinoff of E.J. Russell’s Mythmatched paranormal rom-com story world. It contains no sex or violence, and although there is a romantic subplot, it is not a romance. The series is best listened to in order.

The further adventures of Hugh Mann
This series got off to such a marvelous start, and now it has gotten even better. Russell’s world is robust and imaginative with characters who are realistic and snarky. Lots to love. Add in the amazing Greg Boudreaux, and you have near perfection. Can’t wait to listen to the next, and as many more as there may be.

Things Are Heating Up
The Hound of the Burgervilles is the second book in the Quest Investigations series, a series that’s interconnected with the Mythmatched universe. Although this book can be read as a standalone, it is far, far better to read it in series order. I really enjoyed this installment in the series and thought it was funny and entertaining. The Mythmatched universe is one of my favorites, and I love that Matt and Lachlan’s relationship has started to really…heat up (when you read the book you’ll understand that little joke). Once again this, E.J. Russell gives us a great book set in the Mythmatched universe.

So Enjoyable!
As always Greg Boudreaux knocks it out of the park narrating this story. I could listen to him recite the phone book!
This is the second book in the Quest Investigations series and they do need to be read in order.
I really like how Matt gets involved in all these wild things and, even as a human, he manages to come out of them victorious.
There are always so many amazing side characters making the story funnier and richer.
A very enjoyable mystery with a side of a very slow burn romance!

Great fun
As a Sherlockian for over 50 years, I loved everything about this book from its title to its cover to the "giant hound" whose reality would astound Doyle, Holmes and Watson. Here we have Matt/Hugh caught up in a murder mystery and trying to protect Lachlan from his ex-. The vibe this gave me was the joy of playing with The Hound of the Baskervilles I got from the Wishbone episode that did it when I was younger. Greg Boudreaux did a wonderful job bringing all the characters to life and making you feel the suspense as well as the underlying fun.

This was sooo good, so much fun to listen to. Matt/Hugh is human and therefore he feels lesser. It certainly doesn’t help that he is treated like crap. Lachlan unintentionally doesn’t show much concern at the same time acting protective. I absolutely adore all the guys at Quest, they’re like a crazy, dysfunctional family at times. Familiar favorites and exciting new characters. The story is funny and sweet with slow burn romance and fantastic, descriptive world building!!! Greg Boudreaux did fantastic job with the narrative, each voice clear and distinct. Overall, fantastic!! The story is really well written with complicated and complex characters, highly recommend it!!

E.J. Russell has a great sense of humor that comes across wonderfully here in this series.
The Hound of Burgerville is the second book in the Quest Investigations series, and I recommend reading the books in order.
I like this series, which is very creative. This book was very entertaining - that was due to both the romance and the magic, then there were some funny moments and some mystery moments.
Greg Boudreaux is a great narrator for this series. He was phenomenal as always, he understands and lives the characters with all the different accents. I love his Scottish act accent for Lachlan!
I am already looking forward to more audiobooks in this series!

Excellent series continues
Greg's narration continues to be fantastic as we follow Matt's second adventure. It feels like I'm just pulled along for the ride as this character talks to, and entertains me. Love the voices provided for all of the characters.
The Hound of the Burgervilles follows on from Five Dead Herrings where we read Matt, aka Hugh Man, the only human working at Quest Investigations and also the only one who is sanctioned to know about the Supe community, work on cases on a probationary period.
Things get off to a crazy start when he hopes to help his, hopefully, future boyfriend with a problem but as is normally the case, it all goes off piste pretty quickly. This leads to him being put back on surveillance duty and a weird case of a dog sighting at a Burgerville. Everything quickly devolves to include a missing Herne and his pack of hounds, interaction with a god in Hell and a little trip into Sheol with the lovable/crazy group of people that work at Quest Investigations.
Matt is so sweet in his eagerness to learn and help those around him that it sometimes goes too far, often not helped by Jordan's puppy like behaviour. He's not really got a place in the community that he works and lives in as the only human which is why I think he works so hard to help Lachlan so they have a chance to be together. The group make me think of a family with how different they all are but come together perfectly to help each other and the people that they work to save/protect.
I enjoyed the case that unfolds throughout the book. It gets more intense as we go on and little bits of information are revealed. This time the story involves some quite big characters and brings back some unwanted people from their past, all of which make what's going on all the more difficult for everyone involved as they work to work out what's going on and then step up to save the day.
Another great story in this series from EJ Russell. I love how Matt basically talks to the reader as we go through the story. His character makes this an enjoyable read and I'm enjoying the slowly developing relationship and romance between him and Lachlan. Jordan also tugs on my heart with his eagerness to help and be there for the team but that is sometimes his downfall. He definitely steps up this time, though, when it comes to Doop and taking care of him. A highly recommended read that I think should be read in order.

Cute story
Matt’s up to trouble again – quelle surprise. I love this series, centering around the paranormal Quest Investigations. Matt’s the only human in the mix and with his trusty werewolf companion and dryad friend, is getting into all kinds of mischief again. He starts out by trying to track down the man he loves who is tracking his ex-husband (long story) but things fall off the rails and Matt’s back on surveillance.
Just in time, a case walks in the door. There’s a huge dog hanging around the back of the Burgerville restaurants trying to grab food. Not just a normal dog, though. The human reporting this beast knows there’s something off, but it’s up to Matt to figure out what.
This story has all the elements of the paranormal that I’ve come to expect, a good mystery, and many of my favorite characters. Oh, and Jordan. Gotta love Jordan.
Greg Boudreaux does a great job of narrating these stories and I can see there’s another one, so hopefully it comes out soon.

This series is so enjoyable!
This series is just so enjoyable! The romance is soooo slow burn, the feeling are there but the relationship has gotten stuck before it really gets going, but I think this time is necessary for Matt/Hugh to figure out some really important things. It also is just laying the groundwork for a really great relationship in the future! Matt has a lot going on in this one, and I just really love seeing him become more secure in his place in the supe world, while solving kind of kooky mysteries! With lots of cameos from past series/books, this story is fun from start to finish

Loved It!
I loved this story. It begins as sort of a continuation of the first book (5 Dead Herrings) as Matt/Hugh attempts to find Lochlan's missing husband, so they can sunder their handfasting, and Matt can - maybe - start dating Lochlan. (It's not absolutely necessary, but I recommend reading/listening to book 1 before this one.) Of course, Matt gets into trouble and things go off the rails again, leading to more mystery, comedy, adventure, and hijinx. There is also a lost hellhound, a missing huntsman, a journey to hell, and appearances by characters from the author's other Mythmatched stories. I loved seeing Jordan again and watching him mature, though I also miss the lovable goof from prior books. Best lesson learned: Nobody likes having their butt sniffed.🤣
The narration by Greg Boudreaux is wonderful and really keeps you invested in the story.
I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

Seriously great narration and story
Thanks to this series, I've started on E.J Russell's back stories and, so far, loving all the books.
The world-building is beyond good; the character development is so detailed. Each book is unique, and the stories keep you tuned in from start to finish.
This book doesn't have a HEA as it's not a romance. However, it's funny, heartfelt, slightly odd and has a lot of magical mischief and death. So we get a bit of everything, and it's addictive.
Well worth the read/listen. It's the type of series you can go back to many times.
Greg Boudreaux does an amazing job narrating as normal. However, like I normally do, I sped up to 1.15 in audible.

So good
being back with the Quest Investigations team was fantastic. Matt/Hugh starts out with getting into trouble again trying to find Wynn so he can get divorced from Lachlan so Matt can date Lachlan with no issues.
From there he stumbles from one bad situation to another, gets Tangled up with the wild hunt but saves the day.
I love how perfectly human he is. He learns thst being human isn't a bad thing too. His wonder for the supernatural world is the same as mine and I loved every second of his adventure.
As before, romance is very much a sub-plot. This will be an epic slow burn.
Greg Boudreaux is the perfect narrator for this series. A joy to listen to.

On my last stakeout for Quest Investigations, I nearly got clotheslined by a grove of angry dryads. I expected my bosses to reprimand me, but instead they handed me my first solo assignment. Me! Matt Steinitz, the only human on the Quest roster! Okay, so the mission isn’t exactly demanding. Obviously, the bosses wanted to give me something they think I can’t screw up. I’m determined to show them what I can do, however, so I dive right in with no complaints.

There is, however, one never-ending source of irritation in the form of Police Chief Merrick Dawson. Merrick is Kip’s older brother’s BFF, and nothing seems to bring Merrick more joy than nagging Kip about silly things.

Story
After half a century of chaos, my retirement from leading the Community of Species Government has been bliss. No more hellhounds playing pranks. No more snippy demons demanding my attention. No more cajoling money from the wealthy to support the community. Just peace while I avoid my overbearing father and try to work out my next steps. Although...maybe three years of peace is enough. It might even be starting to get boring. In fact, an adolescent dragon crash-landing on my landlord's shed is just the kind of excitement I need - especially when he brings his species leader to my door.
