About this listen

A banking scandal has filled the city with violent protests, and a young homeless man burns to death after being caught between rioters and the police.

But all is not as it seems; an opportunistic killer is using the chaos to exact revenge. Arthur Bryant and John May soon find their investigation taking an apocalyptic turn as the case comes to involve the history of mob rule, corruption, punishment, and the legend of Guy Fawkes.

Critic reviews

"One of our most unorthodox and entertaining writers." ( Sunday Telegraph)

This book was perfect to listen while enjoying a cuppa on a chilly afternoon. Quick stories, but enough to have a nice reunion with old friends. I so wish Masterpiece Theater would create a series around Bryant & May & the PCU!

Any additional comments?

I Love this whole series and have listened to all the books several times. Such a quirky British detective series with London being the back drop to all the adventures of the peculiar crimes unit. Tim Goodman does an excellent job of bringing the characters to life and I am feeling a bit wobbly and bereft tonight as I finished the burning Man . If You haven't tried this series the books are stand alone but I would recommend reading them in order .

Another Fantastic Bryant and May Book

Mr. Fowler has done it once again, producing his most intricate and engaging book in this fabulous series. Bryant & May captured my heart and mind from the first novel.These are my favorite books in this genre ever! If you want a read that reaches out from the pages and pulls you into the story, The Burning Man is right up your alley. The characters are hugely multidimensional and interesting - and not only Bryant & May. Their cadre of colleagues, superiors, friends, consulting oddballs and others are never given short shrift by the author: they emerge as the essential glue that holds the plot together. Twists and turns abound - just when I thought I had figured things out, I was surprised. Love this quality about Mr Fowler's writing. I admit to sobbing at the end. Please, please, please don't let this be the last in this brilliant series. I will be truly heartbroken if it is.

A Mystery Masterpiece

As a listener to the wonderful audio performances of this series, I am hoping that there will be more! Without spoiling it for others, upon finishing this book just now it seemed possible that there may not be. Dear Christopher Fowler, please, please, please write more. The characters are wonderful. The quality of their conversations and their astute observations on the lunacy of modern life are non-existent in any other writer's work. Where will you readers go to find such spot on social commentary in the guise of fiction if this series doesn't continue? I sometimes find myself repeating sentences played on my phone during a run so I can remember them to share with others because they so perfectly assess a modern social issue. This particular book was brilliant in that regard and I am hopeful more will follow with the same cast of characters that I adore.

Don't make this the last Bryant and May!!

Would you try another book from Christopher Fowler and/or Tim Goodman?

Tim Goodman is excellent!!

Would you recommend Bryant & May - The Burning Man to your friends? Why or why not?

This is the second book I have purchased by Christopher Fowler. The narration is excellent. I also love the bits of historical facts, makes the story even more interesting. Why I will not purchase another is the political push that is included. Want to be entertained not turned off by the authors political rants.

Loved the performance but...
