  • Summary

  • Filthy Henry is Dublin's first and foremost fairy detective. Something of a niche job, since most people do not know that fairies are even real. Let alone need a detective. But when troublesome fairies look to make things awkward for mortals there is one man tasked with stopping the magical meddlers. The only problem is, Filthy Henry hates everybody indiscriminately and would much rather be left alone. Each season covers one book, written by Derek Power and narrated by Niall Milton. Each episode is one complete chapter from the book the season is covering. In between seasons we also release short, never before published, stories on a monthly basis. All music featured in the podcast is an original composition by Niall Milton.

fascinating premise, highly original, entertaining

A hard-boiled detective (who is half human, half faerie) gets spun out onto some of the weirdest and most entertaining noir adventures I've ever heard. The deep well of Irish folklore mixes with present day reality, yielding an extraordinary sequence of 'wait, uh... WHAAAAAAT??' moments. Memorable characters, clever storyline, outstanding Irish narrator who actually has somewhat of a grasp of Gaeilge pronunciations- with a few really infuriating lapses. I went from merely curious and ready to be dismissive to doing a full binge of the series. Only minor (and admittedly highly pedantic) complaint is some mispronounced Irish Gaeilge words (which takes nothing at all away from the whole; if you're unfamiliar with the Gaelige language you'd never know or miss the difference). Big recommend.
