A Rare Book of Cunning Device

By: Ben Aaronovitch

Narrated by: Kobna Holdbrook-Smith

Exclusive to Audio! Somewhere amongst the shadowy stacks and the many basements of the British library, something is very much amiss - and we're not talking late returns here. Is it a ghost, or something much worse? PC Peter Grant really isn't looking forward to finding out....

What do you mean that's all there is?!!!

What made the experience of listening to A Rare Book of Cunning Device the most enjoyable?

The whole premise was an enticing bit of bait for those of us waiting for the next Peter Grant book. Definately get's you speculating about future story lines.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I have always enjoyed the venerable Postmartin.

Which scene was your favorite?

The very last one- left me hanging and most unhappy it was over!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

I never have liked Insects...

Any additional comments?

IF he wants to do a Short- then it needs to be complete and not this "get me all worked up and then leave me with nothing" kind of short. Nobody likes a Tease!

a short sample

of BA's style. Fun but not much more. l think I will try another. sort of like potato chips.

funny and interesting

it was funny and interesting and kept me listening I wanted to know what happened next

Original, Charming and Short.

An Audible original story with magic, books, a charmed library was great company for my afternoon walk.
The narrator had a great British accent reminiscent of Neil Gaiman and the story was refreshingly devoid of murder, yet held some suspense and a modicum of charm.

B A, always weaves a good tale.

A fun listen for in a short story. These books are so entertaining. Try them.
