Story
The man couldn't help himself. His captor was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her powerful eyes held his attention and made him forget that she had him confined in a basement, his hands and feet bound with duct tape. She fed him when he was hungry and kept him alive for the telling of her horrific tale. After getting past the terror and discomfort, he reasoned that there was nothing to worry about for the moment.

It’s the mid-'90s. Grunge and flannel are fading as the Spice Girls and Hot Topic conquer the malls. Cherry gloss glistens on the lips of the youth. Modems hiss as America comes online. And in a fog-drenched cove at the edge of New England, something terrible awakens when a fisherman reels in a gruesome catch: the remains of a young woman. Remains still pulsing with furious life.

Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap out of the audio, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse.

An inn is a place to rest, a place to talk and share stories, a place to find adventure, or a starting ground for quests and legends. It is in this world, at least. To Erin Solstice, an inn seems like a medieval relic from the past. But here she is, running from Goblins and trying to survive in a world full of monsters and magic. She’d be more excited about all of this if everything wasn’t trying to kill her. But an inn is what she’s found, and so that’s what she becomes; an innkeeper, who serves drinks to heroes and monsters. Mostly monsters. But it’s a living, right?

For dinosaurs, it was a big rock. For humans: Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). When the Earth is hit by the greatest CME in recorded history (several times larger than the Carrington Event of 1859), the combined societies of the planet's most developed nations struggle to adapt to a life thrust back into the Dark Ages. In the United States, the military scrambles to speed the nation's recovery on multiple fronts including putting down riots, establishing relief camps, delivering medical aid, and bringing communication and travel back on line. Just as a real foothold is established in retaking the skies (utilizing existing commercial aircraft supplemented by military resources and ground control systems), a mysterious virus takes hold of the population, spreading globally over the very flight routes that the survivors fought so hard to rebuild.

Eric didn't ask to be a vampire. In fact he didn't even believe in them. Biting your own tongue with your fangs does a lot of convincing. Even so, being a part-time undead isn't as easy as you might think. It can let you hold down a day job, true, but sometimes the night "life" can be more than a little difficult, what with those bloodthirsty urges and predatory instincts kicking in.

The first audiobook which appeared in Georges Simenon's famous Maigret series, in a gripping new translation by David Bellos.Inevitably Maigret was a hostile presence in the Majestic. He constituted a kind of foreign body that the hotel's atmosphere could not assimilate. Not that he looked like a cartoon policeman. He didn't have a moustache and he didn't wear heavy boots. His clothes were well cut and made of fairly light worsted. He shaved every day and looked after his hands. But his frame was proletarian. He was a big, bony man.

Top of the world, Mummy, Top of the world!
The first thing I ever read by Donald Allen Kirch was his book, Drop Dead Gorgeous which is a bizaar tale of misogany and misanthropy, scientific torture, and dating. What grabbed me was the cover of his book, which is done in the same style as th cover to DDG. I love the artwork, and that generally pulls me in before I ever read a book blurb. This one looked to be just as crazy as DDG, so I knew there was no way I could pass this up.
The premise is pretty simple, you have the Titanic, and a killer mummy aboard. Sounds insane, but there has long been rumors and beliefs that a mummy had been smuggled onto the doomed vessel, and might even have been the very thing that cursed the vessel in the first place. Kirch took that historical nugget, factual or not, and turned it into a first rate tale. One of th brilliant ways that Kirch works is that although this is a tale about a killer mummy it does not overly focus on that fact. Yes there are murders most grisly, and a cranky bit of carrion cajoling about, but he manages to make it character oriented as the players live out their final days on the ship that might take their lives (after all there is a mad mummy killing people).
Kirch's writing style flows, and it keeps your attention. The story is gripping and fun, in a midnight movie kind of way. The only issue I had was the narration by Hollie Jackson, and my complaints are minor. She did relatively fine work telling the tale itself, and kept things interesting, but when it came to the voices she did for various characters the various accents she did were wonky. I won't say watered down, because Titanic, but they were not a good fit from her mouth to my ears. They were wonky, and seemed unpracticed or unfamiliar to her, but it was only enough that it was just a minor distraction. She kept my attention, the whole time and I enjoyed listening to her. Just a wee flaw in a great big diamond.
I won't tell you how the story ends, but you already know the ship sinks. How the mummy is dealt with I will leave up to you to discover. The book is a blast of fun and is a perfect evening listen, it's just under 8 hours, split it up over two nights with a gass of wine, and remember that no one will be complaining about the board having enough room, or that someone should never let go. Even though I did receive a promo code for this review it in no way influenced my considerations of the material, and in fact, inspired me to be more honest. Getting a code generally makes me harsher as a reviewer as I am more often concerned what someone like Me will decide based on my review.

Never mind the cover, it's a great story
The cover nearly put me off from the audiobook, but thank god I went through with it in the end. It's absolutely amazing and has little of everything. I have particularly love everything that has the Titanic and the paranormal ever since playing 9 hours, 9 persons, 9 doors. There's all the historic facts, not that I verified them but still, about the Titanic, many different points of view (including the mummy's, Ka-Re), some good-old detective work (though sadly not concluded), and tons of action and horror. It was extremely entertaining and gripping, I found myself listening through the night because I couldn't put it down.

The Titanic and a mummy. What could go wrong?
The maiden voyage of the RMS Titanic has a stow away. And no, it isn’t Leonardo DiCaprio. It’s Ka-Re, an ancient and vengeful mummy that has just been awakened from a 3,000 year long nap.
And she’s cranky as hell.
I listened to this one on audio and really enjoyed it. Hollie Jackson did a very good job with the narration, though some of her accents were a wee uneven, the story still flowed nicely.
The mummy is almost a secondary character to the story of the ship and the infamous iceberg. Not sure how Mr. Kirch pulled it off, but it worked. Well done and entertaining.

Now That Was Cool!
Very unique and interesting and dark (not that the sinking itself isn't dark enough lol) twist on The Titanic tale.
On board along with all of the doomed passengers en route to New York was a killer mummy. Yes, I kid you not!
And it was awesome!
Just let go and have fun with it, and you'll laugh, cry or scream - or maybe all 3. Horror yumminess!
A fun listen, loved the story and loved the narration, great job. The title reminds me of Dexter! :)

A much better titanic than DiCaprio’s
The titanic is famous and infamous. It is well documented and yet contains and is surrounded by many mysteries. This fictionalized version of the what happened to the titanic is like taking Brendon Frazier’s the Mummy and mixing it up with titanic and letting Mel brooks direct it. The whole thing is a dark and twisted version of what happened and the reason for the titanic sinking has never been portrayed like this before.

God Himself could not sink this ship
This is the story of the sinking of the Titanic, it also tells a paranormal story of a mummy on board. We all know what happened to the Titanic, and surely the same fate happens; however, this provides a slightly different twist to the story. This gives a great reinterpretation of the sinking of the Titanic and there are definitely no “On Top of the World” moments.
The setting of the Titanic is a great place to tell a paranormal story. Having a well-known setting, regardless of how tragic it is, allows you to focus on what is different. I fully enjoyed everything about the mummy, although I would have preferred to hear more. This was a great story and I loved the mixture, just wanted a slightly different ratio.
I really like the focus on the characters and you really get close to them. I really got attached to two, well three if you count the mummy, and was biting my nails waiting to hear their fate. For what this may have lacked in some plot, this definitely made up for in character development and was an overall great story.
I have to say that I was really impressed with Hollie Jackson. First time I have listened to her and was quite happy. I really enjoyed just listening to her voice, yet alone her telling me a really neat story. She read this clearly, confidently, and with great character voices that captured me. I hope to come across more of her in the future.

An interesting twist
Dark Passenger. If you like a conspiracy, a horror, and the old Hammer house of horror movies. Then you'll love this..
Well crafted and written it's got everything you need in an audiobook.
Narration is superb, suspends reality and carries you onto the Titanic.
A great read/listen.

Fun horror twist on HMS Titanic
This book contained a novel new take which fictionalised the events leading up to the sinking of the Titanic, which involves an ancient 3.000 year old Mummy! The story was a little twisted in places, and somewhat of a mystery, but the story very well written and constructed by Donald Kirsch and I found it enjoyable and entertaining.
The narrator Hollie Jackson did a fine job with the voices, and she wasn't too distracting or intrusive to the story.
