Resumen del Editor
Winner of the 2018 Audie Award for Fantasy
Based on some of literature's horror and science fiction classics, this is the story of a remarkable group of women who come together to solve the mystery of a series of gruesome murders - and the bigger mystery of their own origins.
Mary Jekyll, alone and penniless following her parents' deaths, is curious about the secrets of her father's mysterious past. One clue in particular hints that Edward Hyde, her father's former friend and a murderer, may be nearby, and there is a reward for information leading to his capture...a reward that would solve all of her immediate financial woes.
But her hunt leads her to Hyde's daughter, Diana, a feral child left to be raised by nuns. With the assistance of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, Mary continues her search for the elusive Hyde and soon befriends more women, all of whom have been created through terrifying experimentation: Beatrice Rappaccini, Catherin Moreau, and Justine Frankenstein.
When their investigations lead them to the discovery of a secret society of immoral and power-crazed scientists, the horrors of their past return. Now it is up to the monsters to finally triumph over the monstrous.

On a continent ruled by three empires, some are born with a "witchery", a magical skill that sets them apart from others. In the Witchlands, there are almost as many types of magic as there are ways to get in trouble - as two desperate young women know all too well. Safiya is a Truthwitch, able to discern truth from lie. It's a powerful magic that many would kill to have on their side, especially among the nobility to which Safi was born. So Safi must keep her gift hidden, lest she be used as a pawn in the struggle between empires.

Historia
As battle cries of the American Revolution echo in the distance, servants flutter about preparing for one of New York society's biggest events: the Schuylers' grand ball. Descended from two of the oldest bloodlines in New York, the Schuylers are proud to be one of their fledgling country's founding families and even prouder still of their three daughters - Angelica, with her razor-sharp wit; Peggy, with her dazzling looks; and Eliza, whose beauty and charm rival those of both her sisters, though she'd rather be aiding the colonists' cause than dressing up for some silly ball.

Fire. Wind. Pestilence. Earthquake. Drought. Lightning. These are the six Decimates, wielded by sorcerers for both good and evil. But a seventh Decimate exists - the most devastating one of all. For centuries, the realms of Belleger and Amika have been at war, with sorcerers from both sides harnessing the Decimates to rain blood and pain upon their enemy. But, somehow, in some way, the Amikans have discovered and invoked a seventh Decimate, one that strips all lesser sorcery of its power.

1944. Physics professor Alfred Mendel and his family were trying to flee Paris when they were caught and forced onto a train, along with thousands of other Jewish families. At the other end of the long, torturous train ride, Alfred is separated from his family and sent to the men’s camp, where all of his belongings are tossed on a roaring fire. His books, his papers, his life’s work. The Nazis have no idea what they have just destroyed. And without that physical record, Alfred is one of only two people in the world with his particular knowledge. Knowledge that could start a war, or end it.

One of the best performances ever!
While Goss should get full credit for creating a fantastic story and defined and wonderful characters, Kate Reading is what makes this one of the best audio books you will ever listen to. Truly fabulous!!!!

Hard to get into at first but worth it.
Great read but a little difficult at the beginning. Once you get the style of writing it goes a lot smoother. Definitely going to be watching for more!

Fun and engaging
I got this book on a whim, and I'm glad I did. It was entertaining and written in an unique style. The narrator did a terrific job as well. I heartily recommended to all the literary female fans out there

A great book but wasn't entirely my taste.
I can definitely see why so many people are raving about this book. It's got a great story and many interesting characters. I just found myself a bit uninterested at times so I don't think it was quite the book for me. Still worth the read for anyone interested in a good mystery since many people seem to adore it.

Fun book
In this time of COVID-19, Texas (my home) becoming a frozen tundra and all the crazy politicians blabbing on television , it nice to just check out of reality for a few hours. Give yourself a break from stuff and listen to this book just for entertainment.

Love This Book
From the writing and plot, to the characters and their narration, this is one of the most interesting and entertaining audiobooks I've listened to in a long while.
Goss masterful weaves the various characters' backstories into a cohesive and entertaining story, while Reading deftful gives each a unique voice.
Definitely looking forward to the sequel.
