It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas . . .

For most people, that means a time of celebration, relaxation and inebriation, but not for the staff of The Stranger Times. While a book club meeting ending in a triple murder isn’t unprecedented, it is at least noteworthy. It quickly emerges that this is no ordinary book-club-triple-murder either, as it features a librarian possessed by a chaotic entity who has broken through from another dimension and is hellbent on vengeance. He’s made a list, but he’s not checking it twice as the whole of humanity is on it. Who would want to summon such a thing? And how is anyone going to be able to send it back?

As if that wasn’t enough to be dealing with, a shocking revelation about a member of The Stranger Times team’s past brings family together, but not in a way that’s ever going to make it into a Hallmark movie.

Featuring demonically possessed Santas, blood-thirsty books and the ghost of a legendary nightclub, it’s beginning to look a lot like a Christmas apocalypse . . .

Ring the Bells is the fifth book in the award-winning, critically acclaimed and laugh-out-loud funny The Stranger Times series.

'McDonnell's world is transgressively hilarious, grimly banal and beguilingly warm. Of course there's a story that the intrepid journalists of The Stranger Times have to tease out: grave-robbing, cryogenics, a very angry witch, and a washed-up indie legend looking for a lost album, but the real joy lies in the pitfalls and pratfalls of getting there.' DAILY MAIL

'An absolute riot of a read.' DAILY EXPRESS

Charakterentwicklung, immer wieder neue Plot-Ideen, (Wahn-)Witz, und dann wird man auch noch zu Tränen gerührt.
C.K. McDonnell in absoluter Bestform.

Vielleicht das beste Buch in der Serie

unlike many writers McDonnell doesn't disappoint with his new story! I'm still as hooked as when I was reading the first book!!

it doesn't get weaker

characters are great as ever, the ending is beautiful but the story itself was relatively boring (in comparison to the other books).

still, every fan of the series has to read/listen to it.
;)

The weakest story so far

Again this part of the series gave me an amazing listening experience.

it's again packed to the brim with crazy ideas and the matching humor.

and I was literally in tears at the end of the story, which I did not expect.

The story feels like you would all the food of a fantasy fairy theme park, but all at once.

love it!

Bursting with absurd ideas again!
