Publisher's summary
The people of Minnesota believe the twin cities to be Minneapolis and St. Paul, but what they don't realize is the name actually refers to a parallel dimension known as The Realms, where creatures of myth roam freely. Humans stand only a dimensional barrier away from the most terrifying and horrible monsters imaginable, but there are select few who answer the cries for help, who guard the world of mankind and keep it safe from harm. The Realms can be a place of great danger, as well as great beauty, where love and loss can be sudden and significant, but make no mistake... in this world, humanity is just another word for powerless. Alexander Grimm has been sentenced to a life of servitude. His services are rendered to a man who calls himself The Raven, but he is more than a man. He is a vampire. Grimm has done The Raven's bidding for twenty years with the life of his daughter, Angelica, hanging in the balance. Someone in The Raven's Court has approached the man known in The Realms as "Mr. Grimm" with a choice: Continue killing for fear of losing his daughter, or give his life to ensure that The Raven can never hold her life in his hands again. Which will he choose?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 35
Looking back with wiser eyes now, my family and I concluded that the events leading up to my transformation started during the summer I turned nine. But the day we realized there was a problem - and there was no turning back - was a week before I started my senior year at Junction City High. That was the day the fangs and claws appeared, and the monster inside me emerged. When mutilated corpses appeared near a pile of brush down by Caney Creek, everything changed.

When the world was young, and its name was Faerie, the power of magic ruled - and the Elfstones warded the race of Elves and their lands, keeping evil at bay. But when an Elven girl fell hopelessly in love with a Darkling boy of the Void, he carried away more than her heart. Thousands of years later, tumultuous times are upon the world now known as the Four Lands. Users of magic are in conflict with proponents of science. Elves have distanced their society from the other races. The Druid order is threatened.

To the uninitiated, Savannah shows only her bright face and genteel manner. Those who know her well, though, can see beyond her colonial trappings and small-city charm to a world where witchcraft is respected, Hoodoo is feared, and spirits linger. Mercy Taylor is all too familiar with the supernatural side of Savannah, being a member of the most powerful family of witches in the South. Despite being powerless herself, of course. Having grown up without magic of her own, in the shadow of her talented and charismatic twin sister, Mercy has always thought herself content.

New York City has been decimated by war and plague, and most of civilization has migrated to underground enclaves, where life expectancy is no more than the early 20s. When Deuce turns 15, she takes on her role as a Huntress, and is paired with Fade, a teenage Hunter who lived Topside as a young boy. When she and Fade discover that the neighboring enclave has been decimated by the tunnel monsters—or Freaks—who seem to be growing more organized, the elders refuse to listen to warnings.

Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

Paranormal
Any additional comments?
Grimm's point of view we learn that he is a vampire killer and slave to the Raven , bound to his master by blood to save his daughter's life.This is a classic paranormal-vampire story. The narrator's voice is very complimentary to the whole story..

My cup of grim, gritty coffee. Excellent!
Mr. Alexander Grimm is in servitude. The Twin Cities (Minneapolis & St. Paul) is a special place, concealing a door into The Realms. This is not good for humans as The Realms contain things of myths and legends such as vampires and demons. Mr. Grimm serves The Raven, who rules over The Realms with an iron fist. But several factions with The Realms would like to see a change in leadership. Mr. Grimm may be the key to that change.
This was a dark urban fantasy that was treat to listen to. Avera has created a noir world, albeit much of it behind the scenes. It’s gritty and dangerous, with things waiting the shadows. I loved the mystery to the story, the hint of deeper secrets to be told in forthcoming installments. Mr. Grimm is a deeply conflicted character. He’s in servitude to a vampire (that he hates) and yet he is pretty darn good at carrying out his job – taking out anyone The Raven points his finger at. He has a daughter he must protect at all costs and as the years go by, that cost becomes steeper and steeper.
I only have one quibble. There was a leap in time in the storyline and it had me slightly confused for a bit. During the first part of the story, Mr. Grimm is a family man, but then we move forward a decade or so. Perhaps the first part of the story was flashback for Mr. Grimm? I’m still not sure. Despite that, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The secret world that Mr. Grimm moves through was intriguing and I look forward to listening to future installments of this series.
Narration: Al Kessel did a great job. He was a good voice for Mr. Grimm. He also did a few accents competently and had distinct male and female voices. His French vampire is entirely creepy, in a sophisticated way.
What I Liked: Dark, noir feel to the story; plenty of mystery left to explore; intriguing characters all over the place; Mr. Grimm is left in an impossible position.
What I Disliked: I didn’t like the cover for the audiobook; there is one time leap in the storyline that caused some little confusion.

Excellent Job!
If you could sum up Mr. Grimm in three words, what would they be?
Relatable, protective, and a seeker.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Mr. Grimm. I am able to relate to him, because through out the entire book even when in another relm it was believable. He goes through challenges everyone faces in one form or another. I hope to find out soon about what happens.
What does Al Kessel bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He kept my attention the entire time, and his voice portrayed the characters well.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes! However, I had to break it up into two, and was left with a hanger when it ended.
Any additional comments?
I cannot wait until there is another out! Really enjoyed myself listening to a great book!

Enjoyed the story, but the narration was difficult
Where does Mr. Grimm rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I enjoyed the story, but the narration lacked emotion and was read with too even of a tone. I wanted more inflection and energy. Will try some of the other books as the story was interesting.

Would have been 5 star read if more in depth
If you could sum up Mr. Grimm in three words, what would they be?
Interesting, Good, Unfinished
Which character – as performed by Al Kessel – was your favorite?
Al Kessel done a fabulous on all of the characters. I think he embodied all the was Mr. Grimm. He keep my attention the whole time.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes. It was short enough that I was able to listen to it in one sitting. Which is good since I didn't want to put it down.
Any additional comments?
The only problem that I found was, I felt like it was just getting into the story good when it stopped. I would love for Drew Avera to elaborate more on this story. Other than that, this is one of the best audiobooks I have listened to.

Dark Paranormal Short Story
This was an unusual short story in which a lot was left to one's imagination; however, the story held moments of love, sacrifice, creepiness, and terror. Mr. Grimm was a vampire assassin who was given a choice that could either be disastrous or bring about his freedom. I was entertained by this short story. I'm hoping for more adventures with this character. Al Kessel's narration was good, and his performance enhanced the story's entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Mr. Grimm is up a creek without a paddle
Would you consider the audio edition of Mr. Grimm to be better than the print version?
I have not read the print version.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Mr. Grimm?
The death of his wife had the be the most memorable and heart breaking moments in the book. The fear and love he felt was heart breaking.
Have you listened to any of Al Kessel’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have not heard any performances of Al Kessel before, but I do think he did a great job with Mr. Grimm. He didn't sound like a robot and had good inflection in his voice, with proper enunciation.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The fear he felt for his daughters safety and knowing he alone held the key to her wellbeing was particularly moving.
Any additional comments?
I think this story was way too short, it seemed like as soon as i started getting into it it was over. If they combined the first few books then maybe it could complete the story line. It also seemed to jump around a lot making it kind of confusing.

Any additional comments?
The audiobook was given to me in exchange for honest reviews. I had never herd of this story bit it is interesting fantasy typetype. The maim character Alexander Grimm is fighimg his own mistakes and demons. He is in the otherworld realms trying to make up for what he had done I'm life
The story has vampire theme and does contain adult language. It is, however, a great story and is one I will enjoy again. The narrator was Al Kessel and he has a amazing depth and pitch in jos readings and it a great talent!

Neat Story
If you could sum up Mr. Grimm in three words, what would they be?
If I had to sum up Mr. Grimm in three words. I found it interesting, different, and good. There are many more than three words to describe this story. Irony?
Who was your favorite character and why?
Mr. Grimm. He was willing to do anything to save his daughter which shows he has a conscious. But he was who he was. A killer. I like the idea of "The Realms" which I interpreted as maybe a place in the middle like a portal. I also liked when he called on Geneveve and she knew his real name.
What about Al Kessel’s performance did you like?
Al Kessel's performance was excellent. He was perfect for this story. He has a good tone and good voice inflections.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No extreme reaction. I wish this were a longer story.
Any additional comments?
I received this audiobook foc in exchange for an unbiased review.
