There’s a smokin’ hot dead guy locked in my garden shed. That part’s bad enough. But now, he’s trying to get out...Growing up, my father always told me that I’d come to a bad end, just like my mom did when I was a kid. Hearing that kind of shit when you’re little eventually gets to a girl, but I can’t say I ever expected my "bad end" to involve an angry vampire with a severe case of iron deficiency and a panty-melting English accent.

Magnetic!
•audiobook•
Historical fantasy spin regarding Jack the Ripper.
I really enjoyed the NON sparkly vampire with iconic literary characters.
The writing was tight; the world building incredible; the characters were tangible and realistic; the plot was unique and magnetic.
Reviews of the second book were less promising. As much as I want to pick up the next in the series, I’m uncertain if I will.
I enjoyed listening to Danielle Cohen. She did a wonderful job! I would definitely listen to more from her.

Dracula in London
With only a cursory familiarity of the original Stoker's Dracula, the names are familiar, but the storyline makes less sense to me than it would to someone who had read the original Dracula.

Happy Find!
Excellent narration, engaging story, good writing, creative--I loved it! I appreciated that there were no sex scenes and minimal swearing. I have nothing to complain about, and I'm pretty picky with my books. I already bought the second book and hope Audible gets the other books in this series!

Dracula's retelling, and it is sooooooooooo good!
Told from Mina Murray's POV, this audiobook was a delightful surprise. The use of Stoker's characters is fresh, and yet faithful to their personalities, the writing full of suspense and the plot thrilling.
I like the original characters, too, and the new mythology about vampires, so, yes, I'm dying to know what happens next :P
Danielle Cohen does a superb job narrating this =D

New twist on an old favorite.
You will recognize the characters in this story, but the plot is quite original, and thus far, very well done. I hope the rest of the series is as good as this first book. I enjoyed it very much.

Mina Murray, Van Helsing and Vampires
The Beast of London was a good take on the vampire genre with many familiar characters such as Mina Murray, Van Helsing, Jonathan Harker and of course Dracula. The story begins in London at the time of the Ripper murders and follows the character of Mina Murray who is now a school teacher. She is engaged to be married to Jonathan Harker and as they are out at a Society function there is an intrusion by a group of Vampires which abduct numerous people including her fiance Jonathan. Mina is in quite a state and goes on a quest to find Jonathan at all costs, she embarks on this quest with Abraham Van Helsing(her ex lover) who had just returned to town to try to enlist her help with said vampires who he believed were involved in the Ripper murders and also had bit his friends wife who was currently infected.
It is a different take on the classic Dracula story and has quite a big of action and intrigue and bit of romance and love triangle situation going on. The narration by Danielle Cohen was very good and her accents were pretty good. Overall I really enjoyed the story and some of the surprises that came to light. I am interested to see how it continues in future installments.

New Twist on a Character I Love
The Beast of London by L.D. Goffigan was so good! I loved the new twist on the character of Mina from the Dracula stories. I was immediately pulled into this book. The author wrote vivid imagery and great details. This book was classified as Supernatural and Paranormal under Mystery and Thrillers. I found it to be so much more. I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator. Danielle Cohen was magical bringing the characters to life. She has a rich articulate voice that is perfect for this time period listen. I requested this review copy auidobook and have voluntary written this review. I definitely want to continue this Mina Murray series.

I’ve already bought the Next Book.....
I’m gushing over this book! This retelling of Mina, Johnathon, Lucy and Van Helsing’s story had me completely engrossed. I love when a talented and articulate author dares to retell a classic like Bram Stokers Dracula. Creating a new backstory and bringing the mystery and adventure forward is exciting. I love Mina apart from her internal/external repeated dialog of “we must find Johnathon” (we get that...it’s why you left London). Is something/someone following them to Transylvania? HA! No Spoilers.
The Narrator on this book was EXCELLENT! I was completely immersed. I’m actually bummed the next book isn’t on Audible but I already bought the next book on Kindle anyway!
*I was given a free copy of this book in lieu of an honest review ......and it is this book comes highly recommended by me.
