Book four in the Tales of Larkin saga is a story from the Larkin’s history. The Larkin are a one-inch-tall race of woodland people who must daily face the dangers of spiders, lizards, toads, and predator insects as well as savage attacks by their mortal enemies, the Renegades. As we did in audiobook two, Larkin’s Journal, we will once again join Elder Micah’s history class as he tells his students the exciting narrative of Princess Belladonna’s journal. To keep his students on the edge of their seats, Micah weaves Belladonna’s story with that of Mosstar, son of Cragmore, the great tree laird from the fifth Larkin clan. Not only must both of them survive frequent life-threatening dangers from the natural world around them, but they must also face the Maker’s truth about their own lives. But unknown to both of them is a diabolical plot to destroy them both and forever change the future of the Larkin people. As you have come to expect with all of Harris’ stories, there is more than enough exciting adventures as well as fun and engaging characters in this audiobook to keep even the most reluctant listener unable to stop listening. ungekürzt.

Alison Larkin Presents Carmilla , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 198min

Award-winning narrator Alison Larkin gives thrilling voice to the elements of lesbian attraction and forbidden and dangerous desires in the story of Carmilla, the Gothic female vampire tale that inspired its more famous masculine counterpart Dracula."This double billing of Bram Stoker’s Dracula and Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu’s Carmilla, the vampire story that inspired Stoker, is piercingly wonderful. Bookended by haunting music, the tales share gripping plots, first-person narrators, requisite settings in mountainous middle Europe, and some people with sharp teeth. They also have fantastic narrators. In Carmilla, Alison Larkin’s crystalline tone transmutes as needed from young English girl to old European man, and her pacing transforms the old-fashioned sentences into easy listening while maintaining tension. Clive Hayward’s performance of the tightly plotted Dracula is a tour de force of clear narration, ratcheting-up anxiety, and astonishing characterizations of everyone from English country gal to the Vlad himself. Do not miss the postproduction chat between Larkin and Hayward, which adds to the production’s many pleasures.” (Audiofile) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alison Larkin.

The Editor , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 329min

Lincoln Larkin’s most recent novels are so awful that they’ve pushed him to the brink of self-destruction. Now, those same stories are literally trying to kill him and everyone he gets close to. His novel Vriends is anything but a masterpiece and didn’t land him on any best-seller lists, but the characters from this spoof - a quirky group of vampires who crave caffeinated blood - are coming to life and draining innocent people all over the city. Lincoln can only think of one solution. He wrote himself into this mess, so he’ll write himself out of it. He creates Eddie - a bourbon-fueled anti-hero - and tasks him with stopping the vampires before it’s too late. It seems like a sure-thing: drink bourbon, kill vampires, repeat. But, of course, it’s never that easy. Eddie and Lincoln will have to put their trust in each other and join forces with the enemy. Mix in a little faith and they might just get out alive. The Editor is a spoof-comedy-thriller mashup with a dash of nostalgia. You’ll laugh, cry, and be left wondering what Lincoln and Eddie will get themselves into next. ungekürzt. Language: English.
