Should have read more carefully, the narrator for the Dresden story isn't James Marsters and it is jarring enough I've bounced off this book three times.

What did you love best about Mean Streets?

I like this new series of books that are full of short themed stories, it is a great idea. This book did a great job the stories were interesting and even some new and fresh lines of thought instead of the same old thing.

What other book might you compare Mean Streets to and why?

I can not think of a book I would compare it to, if you know the authors that took part and enjoy those, then you will like this book.

What does the narrator bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

As always the readers bring a different take to the way I may read a sentence giving it a possible twist here or wrinkle there. I also enjoy the hands free ability to consume the book while completing another task

Who was the most memorable character of Mean Streets and why?

WEEPING WOMEN, ALMOST ALWAYS MEAN TROUBLE FOR SOMEBODY
I enjoyed three out of four of these, which is a good average. I especially liked Sniegoski's story NOAH'S ORPHANS. Some may not like this story as it shows God as not being perfect. For me the whole concept was cool and the story had a twist or two.

IS THIS HELL?
NO, BUT YOU CAN SEE IT FROM HERE.
Green has a story from IN THE NIGHTSIDE, which is funny, weird and very different. If you have not read any of the books from this series, this is a good way to get your feet wet.

Angels use Map Quest?
All the narrators are great.

PIG EAR, GOOD

I am familiar with Jim Butcher and Simon Green, I have read most of what they have written, I enjoyed what they contributed. (not their best, but not their worst either) Kat Richardson's ghost story was interesting and had a real twist, It was good for a 2 1/2 hour listen. Thomas Sniegoski' is new to me, but I found this work very enjoyable and will be looking into checking out some of his other books. If you enjoy urban fantasy, these anthologies are a good way to find new authors. No not every story will knock your socks off but, being fair I have to say I really enjoyed 80% and I didn't hate the other 20%. Wish I could give this 4 1/2 stars.BTW If you have been listening to Jim Butcher "Dresden Files" and Simon Green "Nightside" on Audible, there is a different narrators, still I think they were done well. Nice way to find new authors and narrators.

A collection of 4 novellas

This was the best anthology I have run across. Each novella was a jewel! I had to put it away briefly while I caught up on the Dresden series and then jumped right in. Fortunately I totally lucked out and caught two of the other authors in the perfect sequence I was in with their series! Simon Green was new to me and I am intrigued by his "Nightside" series and will definitely check out some of his other stuff.

I am already a huge Dresden fan so I figured I would like his story the best but Kat Richardson's jaunt to Mexico with Harper Blaine blew me away too. This is the way to do an anthology. Rather than being loaded with many short, mediocre stories it has four great stories by truly talented writers with enough time to develop some great tales.

Great P. I. Stories with a twist.

I enjoy Jim Butcher's stories, so I bought this anthology, but it was the fascinating storytelling from the other 3 that kept me wanting more. Excellent job!

Jim Butcher got my attention

I bough this for the Jim Butcher story and enjoyed all of them. The narration was nicely done. I will definitely be looking for more stories with these narrators.
