The man who has haunted and hounded them since the fall of the Maestro, Doctor Henry Jekyll, is now on a killing spree, using bizarre, theatrical murders as a way to taunt their inability to capture him. It falls on Books and Braun to turn the tables on Jekyll and bring him to justice.
As Wellington and Eliza continue their pursuit of the madman, Jekyll, the Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences stand against a recent surge in House of Usher activity. While I understand some of the reasons an author would want to read their own books, I have a hard time with Miss Ballantine's presentation of the characters. The voices of the Canadian and Aussie agents are extremely unrealistic and distracting.
She also slows the story and doesn't have the continuity and excitement of the beginning of the series. I preferred when James Langton read the first 4 novels in the series. His character portrayals were much more realistic and his reading was exciting and fun. The book itself is good, but I had a hard time with the narration. What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? I was so looking forward to this installment but I am really having trouble listening to it.
I am so surprised actually for I didn't realize how really talented your narrators are - until you hear someone who is not a professional narrator. In this author's reading, it is a challenge to tell the voices apart and after so many with one narrator - it It is very difficult to shift to such a monotone delivery. Please consider re-recording??? How did the narrator detract from the book?
I am guessing because this was an auto question to come up - that I am not the first person to have problems with the narrator. I don't think I am going to be able to finish listening I will not be fooled by you guys again. Please Please Please pay a narrator. The last two books have dragged because of the author narrating. I missed Tee but Pip is a delight! This book satisfied on several levels, but still left me curious about this alternate world. Loved it!

A dry action-comedy about two teams of government assassins working out of a top-secret underground facility using code names from the Tarot deck. When our hero--The Fool--arrives for his first day at work to find that the boss has been killed under mysterious circumstances, he must find the killer before the whole place blows up.
Two rival teams of assassins. One killer day at the office. Rated R for strong violence and pervasive language including sexual references. Did you know Edit. Trivia The movie was shot in 20 days, most of the fight scenes were done in less than 3 hours. Goofs While watching things unfold in the bunker "control", states that 6 assassins are dead, 3 from each team. At this point in the movie however, there are only 5 dead. The "Devil" is the only other dead character, and he is the boss, neither a member of Alpha or Omega.
