Agatha Christie: Miss Marple — The Complete Short Stories (audio)


24 Festive Tasks: Door 1 – Día de los Muertos, Book

Audio revisit courtesy of Joan Hickson (who reads almost all of the stories), as well as Isla Blair and Anna Massey (who read one story each). Original review of the print edition HERE.

The audio is excellent and contains an extra (and somewhat sinister) “non-Miss-Marple” story, The Dressmaker’s Doll — the story narrated by Anna Massey — which was first published in book form in Double Sin and Other Stories (U.S., 1961) and in Miss Marple’s Final Cases (UK, 1979); the story of a doll that mysteriously appears one day in a dressmaker’s shop and slowly seems to want to take it over.

Michael J. Sullivan: Legends of the First Empire

Michael J. Sullivan’s Riyria books have been on my TBR for a while, but until I’d read two short stories from the cycle — The Jester and Professional Integrity — I hadn’t been sure whether his writing would be for me.  Then I found out that (much like Tolkien’s Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, and The History […]
