Discover two classic thrillers from the legendary author G.K. Chesterton.

In this two-book combo, you’ll find unnerving thrillers and detective stories which showcase the powerful prose and talent of G. K. Chesterton. With detectives, murders, and conspiracy, these stories have entertained people for generations and have inspired countless others across the thriller genre.

In this audiobook, you’ll discover:

  • The Man Who Was Thursday - a metaphysical thriller about detectives in a secret anti-anarchist police force sent to infiltrate an underground anarchist group.
  • The Man Who Knew Too Much - an unsettling collection of eight murder investigation stories, where the line between good and evil is blurred and one must question morality itself, along with four additional tales.

With artful prose, paradoxes, and a dose of philosophy, these powerful books cement Chesterton as a literary legend, and are a must-listen for anyone interested in thrillers, classics, and stories that make you think.

Good plot, though Chesteron’s detective protagonists (Father Brown as much as Horne Fisher) are sometimes annoyingly and dramatically vague in their communication. The narrator is too slow for me, I had to listen on 1.1-1.2x. If using Audible credits, don’t spend them on this, you can listen for free on LibraVox.

One tires of all the allegories. Like a wife telling you about the dream she had about kittens last night.
