Jeeves read by Jeeves (Stephen Fry). What more can one ask for? If you are into Wodehouse, this is an absolute must listen. If you are not yet acquainted with Jeeves & Wooster, this is a wonderful place to start.

Story
David Mitchell hosts the hilarious panel show which turns honest men into lying cheats. In this devious and delightfully funny competition, four comedians have the audacity to lie through their teeth for victory. They compete against each other with lies, untruths and dishonesty. Tall tales, white lies, blatant bluffs and misdirection rule. Can they smuggle the truth past each other or will they be caught in the act of lying? Listen in, play along and try to separate fact from fiction in the ultimate lying game.

Story
The first ghost Jason King ever saw was his brother’s. And when the spectre told Jason that he needed to find their estranged father, who disappeared during their childhood, his life was changed forever. When documentarian Ben Lawrence reads an article about Jason, now a western Sydney security guard and part-time ghost hunter, he embarks on a seven year journey into a gothic world of suburban graveyards and broken souls. Paranormal activity, a family’s terrible forgotten secret and a police investigation converge in Ghosthunter, a part family memoir and part true crime podcast.

An interesting and disturbing listen, owing to the nature of the story. And I don’t mean the supernatural... which is just a hook to talk about a completely different topic.

A tad too much focus on teen relationships than sorcery, but I’m guessing that’s what teens would like. A lot many years have passed for me since. :-)

"When's the next book coming?" That is all I keep thinking. I was in two minds when I bought this audiobook version of Doctor Strange, but was it wonderful! Have listened to it three times already, and even now keep looking for another book on Doctor Strange!

But when a girl named Emily begins to spend time with the group, Theo is surprisingly drawn to her. She seems to understand the pull he feels between music and magic, between family and friends. Then a famous ventriloquist arrives in town, and the Misfits are sure he (and his creepy dummy) are up to no good.

NPH is wonderful at story-telling in all forms, and this book series proves it. Written for children, pitched as a mystery series, there is a strong connect to magic and magicians -- especially for people connected to the art of legerdemain. The story is gripping enough to keep us looking for the next book in the series... We loved Book Three the most, and are eagerly awaiting Book Four.
