Feisty, passionate Beatrice Steele has never fit the definition of a true lady, according to the strict code of conduct that reigns in Swampshire, her small English township—she is terrible at needlework, has absolutely no musical ability, and her artwork is so bad it frightens people. Nevertheless, she lives a perfectly agreeable life with her marriage-scheming mother, prankster father, and two younger sisters— beautiful Louisa and forgettable Mary. But she harbors a dark secret: She is obsessed with the true crime cases she reads about in the newspaper.

Miss Mildred Percy is a spinster. She does not dance, she has long stopped dreaming, and she certainly does not have adventures. That is, until her great uncle has the audacity to leave her an inheritance, one that includes a dragon’s egg. The egg—as eggs are wont to do—decides to hatch, and Miss Mildred Percy is suddenly thrust out of the role of “spinster and general wallflower” and into the unprecedented position of “spinster and keeper of dragons.” But England has not seen a dragon since…well, ever.

If it sometimes seems as though she was hiding behind the settee during a particularly fierce quarrel between a husband and his wife, it’s most likely because she was hiding behind the settee during their fierce quarrel.

Publisher's summary
London, April 1812. Eighteen-year-old Lady Helen Wrexhall is on the eve of her debut presentation to the Queen. Her life should be about gowns and dancing, and securing a suitable marriage. Instead, when one of her family's housemaids goes missing, Lady Helen is drawn to the shadows of Regency London.
There, she finds William, the Earl of Carlston. He has noticed the disappearance, too, and is one of the few who can stop the perpetrators: a cabal of powerful demons that has infiltrated every level of society. But Lady Helen's curiosity is the last thing Carlston wants - especially when he sees the searching intelligence behind her fluttering fan. Should Helen trust a man whose reputation is almost as black as his lingering eyes? And will her headstrong sense of justice lead them both into a death trap?
In The Dark Days Club, internationally best-selling author Alison Goodman introduces listeners to a heroine who is just as remarkable as Eona - and yet again reinvents an established literary genre, making it her own.
Critic reviews
"Narrator Fiona Hardingham expertly portrays the characters in this novel with doses of snobbery, passion, and wit.... Hardingham consistently engages the listener, keeping the action and dialogue moving at an excellent pace." (AudioFile)

Fabulous Trilogy
I devoured this trilogy! Absolutely deliciously narrated and written, with twists and turns unexpected. I want to read all of Alison's books now! Can't wait to get started on another set. Her descriptions are effortlessly created, making it easy to create the story and characters in your mind. Delightful!

Not what I expected
I am not big fan of fantasy in books , but I listened to the whole story due to excellent, outstanding performance and author’s use of knowledge about this historic period . I liked how she used a vocabulary, language , to create the atmosphere of the époque .

A book That took me back into time.
Allison Goodman had me hooked within the first chapter of the book. I loved how she wove me into the time period, the characters and into the wickedness of those days. It was an exciting book for me!

Dark Days Club Will Lighten Your Day
An excellent read! As an avid reader, especially of fantasy, I appreciate the discovery of a unique take on the world. I don’t want to spoil anything further but if you enjoy fantasy you will love this book. The historical accuracy is a fun romp as well!

“The Dark Days Club”- not so dark, but still delig
This was my first Regency era read ever. I have always enjoyed period films so I took a chance on Alison Goodman. First let me say I enjoyed the book. The pressures that Helen had to endure resonated with me well. She spent so much time fretting over if she was doing the right thing that it made the reader an easy cheerleader for the main character. The introduction Helen received into this really scary reclaimer world was not as believable as the problems she faced as a society woman, but I did enjoy the attempted. I wanted a little more back story as to where these spirits and animals came from but did not receive it. I did enjoy the courtyard runaway horse part. That would have been a sight to see in reality. Overall I did enjoy the storytelling enough to find out about the sequel (which proved to be a little confusing) I was very very curious as to the Duke and who he really was. I think he is the great deceiver the Dark Days Club is waiting for. Overall not amazing but nice read.

Came across more adult than YA
This one was a surprise to me. I had thought it would be YA, which it is still described as such. However, the themes covered feel heavier and carry more gravitas than YA. Not a bad thing, but readers may have expectations going in. The author clearly did a lot of research about the Regency period and it shows. I respect the writing, the relevant and more themes, and the development of the characters, but at times the story felt longer and slower than it needed to be. So b/c of the latter, it wasn't a love for me, but a decent like.
