À propos de cet audio

Bavarian private investigator Gretel has never had any time for sorcerers, considering them nothing more than show-offs with questionable fashion sense. It is with some reluctance and a deal of grumpiness, then, that she agrees to look into the matter of a murdered magician. All that is left of him is a grisly remnant, which the police quack confirms is the murdered man’s appendix. What has become of the rest of him is baffling the local constabulary, the Sorcerers’ Society, and, not least, the hapless trickster’s widow.

As Gretel delves into the facts behind his disappearance she discovers no shortage of suspects. In fact, just about everyone she meets had reason for wanting the odious man dead. Her only clue points in one disturbing direction: the deep dark forest. So it is that Gretel, with a reluctant Hans as porter, must trek into the woods of her childhood trauma, braving all manner of discomforts and dangers – not least of which is a terrifying reminder of her past.

Ce que les critiques en disent

'The Sorcerer’s Appendix pokes fun at fairy tales and mysteries alike, but it’s also a serious whodunit.' (Historical Novel Society)
'Bestseller Brackston’s comic mystery series set in a Grimm fairy tales version of 18th-century Bavaria hits its stride with this often hilarious fourth entry. The wry humor is a delight.' (Publishers Weekly)
'An adventure that unrepentantly defies history and follows up a beloved tale with farce.' (Kirkus Reviews)

I read all of the books in this series, and the combination of the characters, writing and narration by Kate Reading never failed to disappoint. PJ Braxton's sense of humour, mixed with intrigue, wrapped with an enriched writing style leaves a reader wanting more. The character of Gretel as the voluptuous and unconventional lead in a detective novel with her bumbling brother Hansel never fails to amuse.
