Reading on my #kindlecolorsoft! Only had it almost a week and I didn't think I was gonna like it as it was an upgrade from my 11th gen but it is so much faster! #cozymysteries#midsomermurders

All human life seemed to be out there. And it was not a pretty sight.

Усі людські пороки, здавалося, перебували там. І це не було приємне видовище.

I‘m ten seasons into the Midsomer Murders TV show, so I thought I would read the first book in the series the show is based on. I enjoyed this. It‘s definitely darker than the show, but I enjoyed some of the fleshing out. I was surprised that Sargent Troy is a bit of a prick. I enjoyed his character on the show.

The continuing series starring Inspector Barnaby and his sidekick Troy. Not my favorite, too much setting up of the murder , but worth reading to move on to next book.

This really did not age well. I disliked Sgt. Troy and found the main storyline rather sensational and weird. It was a meandering sort of story and by the end I really didn‘t care whodunnit. The cat that Barnaby and his wife were cat-sitting was honestly the best part of the whole book for me.

KathyWheeler The show made an excellent decision when they decided to change Troy‘s character. I was used to him from the show, but I really dislike him in the books. 2y
rwmg Add me to the list of those who prefer TV Troy to Book Troy. Most people I know just want to look after TV Troy but detest book Troy 2y
erzascarletbookgasm Yes TV Sgt. Troy was much likeable 👍 2y

This final in the Midsomer Murders series is the longest and the most slow burning, character developing novel. When a death occurs, it looks like a simple accident. And yet…

I‘m so glad I found this series on audio! #BBRC #YeahBaby #ADevilInTheDetails

LibrarianRyan Is that the same Midsomer murders they made the show of? 2y
Librarybelle @LibrarianRyan Yes! The show is a bit different from the books, and obviously not every show is based on the books (isn‘t there over 100 episodes now???). I loved exploring the origins to the show. 2y

This edition to the Midsomer Murders series starts off with a bang and does not stop. Barnaby and Troy are as snarky as ever. John Hopkins‘s narration is so engaging to me. I blew through this one and am anxiously awaiting the audio release on Audible next month.

Crazeedi I adore the series, and recently looked to see if I could find the books! Definitely on my tbr!! 2y
Librarybelle @Crazeedi I hope you can find the books! The audio is a delight. The books are darker than the series, and the characters, especially Troy, are more crass and less “Hollywood”. But, I‘m so enjoying the books! 2y
Crazeedi @Librarybelle I'd love to find the audio books, I read Camilleri's series on audio and they were so very good. We will see!! 2y
