Resumen del Editor
In the latest comic novel from Christopher Buckley, a hapless Englishman embarks on a dangerous mission to the New World in pursuit of two judges who helped murder a king.
London, 1664. Twenty years after the English revolution, the monarchy has been restored, and Charles II sits on the throne. The men who conspired to kill his father are either dead or disappeared.
Baltasar “Balty” St. Michel is 24 and has no skills and no employment. He gets by on handouts from his brother-in-law Samuel Pepys, an officer in the king’s navy. Fed up with his needy relative, Pepys offers Balty a job in the New World. He is to track down two missing judges who were responsible for the execution of the last king, Charles I.
When Balty’s ship arrives in Boston, he finds a strange country filled with fundamentalist Puritans, saintly Quakers, warring tribes of Indians, and rogues of every stripe. Helped by a man named Huncks, an agent of the Crown with a mysterious past, Balty travels colonial America in search of the missing judges. Meanwhile, on the other side of the Atlantic, Samuel Pepys prepares for a war with the Dutch that fears England has no chance of winning.
Christopher Buckley’s enchanting new novel spins adventure, comedy, political intrigue, and romance against a historical backdrop with real-life characters like Charles II, John Winthrop, and Peter Stuyvesant. Buckley’s wit is as sharp as ever as he takes readers to 17th-century London and New England. We visit the bawdy court of Charles II, Boston under the strict Puritan rule, and New Amsterdam back when Manhattan was a half-wild outpost on the edge of an unmapped continent. The Judge Hunter is a smart and swiftly plotted novel that transports readers to a new world.

In Gretel’s opinion, however, tittle-tattle sowed the seeds of malice among the fertile soil of jealousy, often watered by the tears of its victims. So it was that upon hearing from brother Hans of the whispers concerning a young woman, a married man and a thwarted lover, Gretel is compelled to rise from her beloved day bed to set things to rights.

The Speckled Monster is both a hair-raising tale of courage in the face of the deadliest disease that has ever struck mankind, and a gripping account of the birth of modern immunology. Jennifer Lee Carrell's dramatic story follows two parents who, after barely surviving the agony of smallpox themselves, flouted 18th century European medical tradition by borrowing folk knowledge from African slaves and Eastern women in frantic bids to protect their children. Their heroic struggles gave rise to immunology.

Historia
The year is 1517. Dismas is a relic hunter: one who procures "authentic" religious relics for wealthy and influential clients. His two most important patrons are Frederick the Wise, elector of Saxony; and soon-to-be Cardinal Albrecht of Mainz. While Frederick is drawn to the recent writing of Martin Luther, Albrecht pursues the financial and political benefits of religion and seeks to buy a cardinalship through the selling of indulgences.

Nobody blows smoke like Nick Naylor. He’s a spokesman for the Academy of Tobacco Studies - in other words, a flack for cigarette companies, paid to promote their product on talk and news shows. The problem? He’s so good at his job, so effortlessly unethical, that he’s become a target for both anti-tobacco terrorists and for the FBI. In a country where half the people want to outlaw pleasure and the other want to sell you a disease, what will become of Nick Naylor?

Christopher Buckley at his best: an extraordinary, wide-ranging selection of essays both hilarious and poignant, irreverent and delightful. In his first book of essays since his 1997 best seller, Wry Martinis, Buckley delivers a rare combination of big ideas and truly fun writing. Listening to these essays is the equivalent of being in the company of a tremendously witty and enlightening companion.

well done but not to my taste
it's cool that pepys' real historical journal entries correlate to the story as it unfolds. I don't know why I didn't really enjoy this book deeply because it's well done in all respects. just not my taste

Strange book
I enjoyed listening to it, the narrator was funny and made great voices. His accents were not disturbing. Still, i wonder, if in the 21st century we still need books about evil “indians” perpetuating the greatness of britain against other nations.

This narration will make you fall asleep while driving
I love Buckley’s books but I feel like I’m listening to a David Attenborough wannabe narrate this story. The old man British accent absolutely kills the flow of the story and trying to listen to it while driving nearly put me to sleep. I have no issue with British accents but at least use a narrator who doesn’t sound like he should be narrating a BBC nature documentary. I tried listening to this book several times and lose all interest in a matter of minutes. It takes way too much effort to listen to this narrator while driving.
I regret using a credit on this book solely for that reason.

Great actor and voicing
As always Buckley is entertaining and the audio book was fun to listen to. I might even listen again! I'll be talking like a pirate for a week.

Fun historic novel
I like a lot of Buckley’s political satires and have enjoyed his latest historical novels. I think this one is a bit better than the Relic Hunters, but I have liked them both. The narrator is excellent as well.

Very enjoyable
After having just listened to the manhunt for the regicides in another book, I was curious how a more light-hearted version might play out. Pleased to say Judge Hunter was both entertaining and informed by history. It definitely helps to know the history surrounding King Charles’s death before listening though. Easy enough to find online.

One of Christopher Buckley's best books yet!
Great historical novel! Funny and intelligent story and dialogue. James Langton's performance was amazing! So many different characters and accents and he makes you feel like a different actor played each one. Hope Mr. Buckley continues Baldy's story in another book!

Who knew New England was so ugly
Wodehouseian humor embedded in a historical-ish drama with a little light love story on the side.
