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.

Sherlock Holmes is an unparalleled genius who uses the gift of deduction and reason to solve the most vexing of crimes. Warlock Holmes, however, is an idiot. A good man, perhaps; a font of arcane power, certainly. But he’s brilliantly dim. Frankly, he couldn’t deduce his way out of a paper bag. The only things he has really got going for him are the might of a thousand demons and his stalwart flatmate. Thankfully, Dr. Watson is always there to aid him through the treacherous shoals of Victorian propriety...

A place of shadow and light where thieves, whores, and dreamers mingle, where children play in the cobbled streets by day and a killer stalks at night, where bright hopes meet the darkest truths. Here, by the whispering waters of the Thames, Fiona Finnegan, a worker in a tea factory, hopes to own a shop one day, together with her lifelong love, Joe Bristow, a costermonger's son. With nothing but their faith in each other to spur them on, Fiona and Joe struggle, save, and sacrifice to achieve their dreams.

Imagine an alternate universe where romance and technology reign. Where tinkerers and dreamers craft and recraft a world of automatons, ornate clockworks, calculating machines, and other marvels that. Where scientists and schoolgirls, fair folk and Romans, intergalactic bandits, and intrepid orphans - decked out in corsets, clockwerk suits, and tall black boots - solve dastardly crimes, escape from monstrous predicaments, consult oracles, and hover over volcanoes in steam-powered airships.

Historia
A young woman hunts for her wayward shadow at the school where she first learned magic - while another faces a test she never studied for as ice envelopes the world. The tasks assigned a bookish boy lead him to fateful encounters with lizards, owls, trolls, and a feisty, sarcastic cat. A bear wedding is cause for celebration, the spinning wheel and the tower in the briar hedge get to tell their own stories, and a kitchen maid finds out that a lost princess is more than she seems. The sea witch reveals what she hoped to gain when she took the mermaid's voice.

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!

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.

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.
