Über diesen Titel

The Beetle is a horror novel that was published in 1897 and significantly outsold Dracula, which appeared in the same year. A polymorphous Egyptian creature – the Beetle – seeks revenge on the eminent British politician Paul Lessingham for crimes committed against the disciples of an ancient cult. Although it is less well-known than Dracula to modern audiences, The Beetle remains a leading example of the Gothic novel.

The story is told from the perspectives of four different characters, concluding with the account of the detective Augustus Champnell. The action takes place within a three-day period in an undisclosed year in the 1800s.

I enjoyed the audiobook a lot. The story itself is great.
The voice acting was mostly great, too. Altough I (personally) found some of the minor characters voices a little bit straining / unnatural sounding. That doesn't take away from the overall good experience, though!

Great story, great voice acting
