Thirty-Three Teeth

The Dr. Siri Investigations, Book 2

De: Colin Cotterill

Narrado por: Clive Chafer

Feisty Dr. Siri Paiboun is no respecter of persons or party; at his age he feels he can afford to be independent. In this, the second novel in the series, he travels to Luang Prabang, where he communes with the deposed king who is resigned to his fate: it was predicted long ago. And he attends a conference of shamans called by the Communist Party to deliver an ultimatum to the spirits: obey party orders or get out. But as a series of mutilated corpses arrives in Dr. Siri’s morgue, and Nurse Dtui is menaced, he must use all his powers—forensic and shamanic—to discover the creature—animal or spirit—that has been slaying the innocent.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“The quasi-mystical story keeps a perfect balance between the modern mysteries of forensic science and the ancient secrets of the spirit world as the cranky coroner tries to resolve a politically sensitive case involving the deposed king without riling the authorities.” ( New York Times Book Review)

Excellent for any age!

Lots of people prefer visible books, but with this series, I feel that readers who are unfamiliar with the sounds of words in the Southeast Asian languages would enjoy the audio as much as those of us who choose audiobooks for other reasons. That being said, I really love the writing and the characters and the stories themselves. This one has a lot more of the ethnic supernatural stuff in it. I always find that kind of thing fascinating to compare with others. There is also an abundance of suspense and deductive reasoning going on. No spoilers here, just go ahead and enjoy!

Dr. Sir I and Co. never fail to feel like family.

Great character development all throughout the series. Clive Chafer does a wonderful job. I always know who's speaking.

Thanks for this series, Colin. You may be getting tired of them but I never will.

And more 'Jimm Juree' please. Her series is a hoot! Kim Mai Guest is a wonderful 'Jimm'!

Great read!

Very entertaining. I finished the book in less than 5 days! The narrator does a wonderful job with these books.

Animal spirits

Another fun Cotterill. Always learn something new about Laos post 1975. The humar and humanity of his main characters are a real boost.

As good as the first in this series

I really love the story line and the narrator Clive Chafer really makes the story come to life. Often it is the narrator that can make the difference between a good or poor review but in this case I think the author/story was a good. This is the second of this series with Dr. Siri by Mr. Cotterill's I have listened to in this series and will not be the last.
