  • Solid historic fantasy

    A good premise and reasonably well written. Main character is written to be somewhat naive . Decent fare from a passionate group.

  • Creepy supernatural historical fiction

    This is a fascinating audio drama, set in the gaslight era. Part murder mystery, part psychological thriller. Very well acted and edited. If you’re into audio drama, this is a solid listen.
