pickThe second book in the Edinburgh nights series, not as good as the first but still lots of fun. I love the adventures around Edinburgh, the humour and the underground library. The mc is funny and feisty and the books are quick and easy to read if you want something light with mystery and paranormal elements
I‘ll definitely read the next one in the series
Started listening to book 2 in the series set in a post apocalyptic Edinburgh- where magic and ghosts abound. Ropa is investigating why a young hospital patient is dangerously ill using her supernatural skills. A great voice actor really adds to the experience. 💚🐉
pick4 ⭐ Ropa‘s business lost all credibility when she took time out to figure out what was happening to the kids that disappeared. She solved her case but wrecked her reputation. Now she must find some way to supplement her income to make sure her sister and grams have food and a warm place to stay. She has a great opportunity to apprentice for a with a renowned magic user who is a bit eccentric. ⬇
pickThis fun follow-up to THE LIBRARY OF THE DEAD picks up not long after the close of the first book. Ropa takes on her new responsibilities but still feels pressured to get in some extra money to support her family. A strange illness where Priya works has them both dive back into danger for answers! I listened this time and Ropa‘s voice really shines in this format as well! The plot‘s self-contained but I hope the third book has more answers…
The hedge creatures are gaining.
Out of the way, Priya yells. She quickly incants a spell I don't catch, which sends a blast of air to the door. But the wood flexes inwards, absorbing it all, and springs back in place, launching her spell right at us. I'm hit by a wind so powerful it throws me onto the ground....I think I landed on my tailbone, 'cause my butt hurts.
This is why I never liked school.
...there used to be a time when Edinburgh had some kind of festival and people would stream in from all over the world. This was before the catastrophe, mind you. Even heard them claim the city's population would double or something, which sounds like bollocks if you ask me. Like, where would you put all them extra people? The King's Market Week is hectic enough, thank you very much.
I've got my left earphone plugged in, listening to an audio book of The Peloponnesian War.... I dig listening to stuff like this when I'm about.... If there's anything I can put my ear to the keyhole and eavesdrop on, I'm game. It's the only method I know of teleportation and time travel too. Do enough reading and you come to realize this world's been insane right from the beginning.
