What Have You George?

I am a fan of The Murdoch Mysteries, both the show and the Books. This little series is a wonderful side piece of the show, mixing clips from the specific episode to Yannik's narration of Murdoch's personal thoughts is just marvelous. I hope there is more!

Great companion to the series!

If you love the show, you'll enjoy hearing Detective Murdoch's secret diaries. I, especially, like the addition of audio clips from the television episode that relate to the particular entry.

love it!

Was a little surprised, I was expecting a behind the scenes type podcast. It comes across as more of a series recap which is pretty cool too.

Entertaining

Being my first audio book I didn't truly appreciate it at first. However, after sampling some others, it is now one of my favorites. Yannick is a great narrator and I loved the sound effects and "reenactments". It gets rather philosophical but I suppose that is what you should expect from someone's diary. The first couple chapters were rather depressing but the adventure picked up after that. Overall, extremely entertaining and I would definitely recommend.

Familiar but new at the same time

I thoroughly enjoyed this series. I am a fan of the TV show and, while the stories were covered in the TV version, we get a different perspective here because we are inside Murdoch's head and discover his intimate thoughts and feelings about himself that the show can't / doesn't get into.

I hope more stories are coming. Entertaining and enlightening. You don't need to have seen the show to enjoy these. Get it now.
