About this listen
Contemporary fantasy in the world of Strange Practice, starring Dr. Greta Helsing, whose family has been keeping the supernatural community not-alive and well for generations.
When Greta Helsing, doctor to the undead, is unexpectedly called to Paris to present at a medical conference, she expects nothing more exciting than professional discourse on zombie reconstructive surgery and skin disease in bogeymen - and hopefully at least one uneventful night at the Opera.
Unfortunately for Greta, Paris happens to be infested with a coven of vampires - and not the civilized kind. If she hopes to survive, Greta must navigate the darkest corners of the City of Lights, the maze of ancient catacombs and mine-tunnels underneath the streets, where there is more to find than simply dead men's bones.

Story
Dr. Greta Helsing has inherited the family's highly specialized and highly peculiar medical practice. She treats the undead for a host of ills - vocal strain in banshees, arthritis in barrow-wights, and entropy in mummies. It's a quiet, supernatural-adjacent life until a sect of murderous monks emerges, killing human and undead Londoners alike. As terror takes hold of the city, Greta must use her unusual skills to stop the cult if she hopes to save her practice - and her life.

The orphaned Elsie Camden learned as a girl that there were two kinds of wizards in the world: those who pay for the power to cast spells and those, like her, born with the ability to break them. But as an unlicensed magic user, her gift is a crime. Commissioned by an underground group known as the Cowls, Elsie uses her spellbreaking to push back against the aristocrats and help the common man. Elite magic user Bacchus Kelsey is one elusive spell away from his mastership when he catches Elsie breaking an enchantment. To protect her secret, Elsie strikes a bargain.

To some, she’s a magical tender. To others, a she-devil. To a talent prospector, she’s a crowd-drawing oddity. And the Bacchanal Carnival is Eliza’s ticket out of the swamp trap of Baton Rouge. Among fortune-tellers, carnies, barkers, and folks even stranger than herself, Eliza finds a new home. But the Bacchanal is no ordinary carnival. An ancient demon has a home there too.

That is, until her great uncle has the audacity to leave her an inheritance, one that includes a dragon’s egg.

Powers of Darkness is an incredible literary discovery. In 1900, Icelandic publisher and writer Valdimar Asmundsson set out to translate Bram Stoker's world-famous 1897 novel Dracula. Called Makt Myrkranna (literally, 'Powers of Darkness'), this Icelandic edition included an original preface written by Stoker himself. Makt Myrkranna was published in Iceland in 1901 but remained undiscovered outside of the country until 1986, when Dracula scholarship was astonished by the discovery of Stoker's preface to the book.

Unless you count Falada, her mother's beautiful white horse. The only time Cordelia feels truly free is on her daily rides with him. But more than simple eccentricity sets her mother apart. Other mothers don’t force their daughters to be silent and motionless for hours, sometimes days, on end. Other mothers aren’t sorcerers.

excited to read the second, & not disappointed!
I loved Strange Practice, and was so glad to feel the same way about this book. Shaw's writing is artful and almost poetic, while never becoming pretentious or lofty. I'm in love with the world she has created, and the characters I have come to know. this was a true pleasure to read (well, hear!). the narrator was just as fantastic as before, and her voice has a richness that adds so much. bravo, and can't wait for the next one!

Lovely and delicious
I have fallen in love with Ms Shaw. She strikes such a balance with her words, story and characters. Tension, exaltation, desire - all are tempered but never diminished to carry you along the story that can perhaps better reveal the ugly and real because of the buffer of her language and the construction of her main character.

I really liked the story and the characters. But I sometimes had a problem differentiating the different characters based on the narrator's voice. Some characters she easily differentiated with accent or tone. Others she didn't.

Lovely Supernatural Mystery
I am still absolutely in love with this series. Greta, Varney, Ruthven, and the new friends they make along the way continue to delight. They are the definition of found family and I am here for every minute of it. I enjoyed the dilemma they find themselves in and how they eventually solve the problem. Paris serves as a picturesque backdrop for our heroes to save the day once again and I am really looking forward to the next book.
Reread 2021: I am greatly enjoying my "reread" of this series only this time I am listening to the audio version rather then actually reading it so I am loving it in a new way. I still think this is a clever plot and I really love the found family aspect as much as the first time. Can't wait to finish it up in the third book.

NEXT, PLEASE!!!
THIS. BOOK. WAS. FANTASTIC. I can't wait for the next one in this series.
Listening to this audio book was like walking through Paris wearing rose colored glasses...if the rose colored glasses also allowed you to see monsters. ;-)
I loved the descriptions of the city and characters - and enjoyed that many characters from Shaw's first novel were included - and hope that some of the new characters from this novel will be in the next one (hint, hint, Ms. Shaw).
Very well written, with a strong (but kind) protagonist, deep and caring friendships, new friendships, adorable monsters, a few polite vampires, an engaging plotline, and some of the best narration I've ever heard (well done, Suzannah Hampton!).
Suzannah Hampton's voice is like velvet dipped in chocolate and wrapped in a warm hug. I could listen to her all day...and I did!!
A terrific author and an outstanding narrator. ENJOY!

Absolutely Exquisite!
The book was well written and easy to follow. The characters had matured since Strange Practice.
The narrator was excellent.
