'This book is a joy to read, unlocking every bit of delicious promise in the premise' B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog

Meet Greta Helsing, doctor to the undead.

After inheriting a highly specialised, and highly peculiar, medical practice, Dr Helsing spends her days treating London's undead for a host of ills: vocal strain in banshees, arthritis in barrow-wights and entropy in mummies. Although barely making ends meet, this is just the quiet, supernatural-adjacent life Greta's dreamed of since childhood.

But when a sect of murderous monks emerges, killing human undead and alike, Greta must use all her unusual skills to keep her supernatural clients - and the rest of London - safe.

There are . . . few heroines as well-written and compelling as Greta Helsing'

Sympathische Figuren, ein etwas anderer Ansatz, die "Monstergeschichten" aufzunehmen, angenehme Sprecherin und mit Suchtfaktor.
Einziges Manko: Keinerlei Pausen zwischen den Kapiteln/Szenesprüngen, was immer wieder kurz verwirrt.

unterhaltsam - macht Lust auf mehr

I would have liked a bit more modulation for the different characters' voices. sometimes I was confused who was speaking to whom.
something that is perhaps rather down to editing than the narrator: the breaks between paragraphs were often hardly noticeable as such which also sometimes caused me confusion.

character- and storywise though I thoroughly enjoyed it. (except that I wasn't really feeling the budding romance, I kind of would have preferred a different pairing. but oh well. let's see how it goes in the next book(s)!

not a bad narrator but I've heard better

A surprisingly originals twist to the common supernatural books out there. Vampires, ghouls, mummies and demons are just a few in this wonderfully witty and highly entertaining book that we are introduced to. I am greatly enjoying every second and don’t know whether to read on faster for the pure joy of the story or slower to keep it going longer!

For anyone who enjoys the supernatural, a mix of the past, the present and the future all wrapped up with wit and fun, you will love this book!

The wonderful world of monsters with a twist

As a great fan of dark fiction/mystery , as well as real-crime-stories, and history novels, I would call this book a real gem as it manages to create an exciting, yet funny, and entirely entertaining symbioses of all my favorite genres.
All characters seem - surprisingly - real, even though they are not of this world (not human at all). So, please, Vivian Shaw, write more books and continue this story!

Beautifully written new perspective on old genre

Ich hatte vorher noch nicht von der Autorin gehört. Hatte nur eine Leseprobe aus einem anderen Buch - was aber sehr interessant klang. Als Hörbuch noch angenehmer. Die Geschichte baut sich gut auf, Spannung entwickelt sich gut. Äußerst interessante Charaktere. Werde die Serie weiter hören

Spannend
