Meet the ultra-rational Dr Newton Barlow. Cool, cynical, scientific, he’s the last man you’d want to be a bridge between the living and the dead. But with his academic reputation in tatters, and nothing to lose but his few remaining marbles, the great skeptic is about to discover that the past that haunts him will be nothing compared to his ghost-ridden future.
Thrust into a rollicking struggle between good and evil, can Dr Barlow forget everything he ever believed in to save this world...and the next?
Thrilling, chilling, and utterly hilarious, The Unhappy Medium is a bone-dry British comedy in the great tradition of Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett.

So, after the mountains of expositions, the story settles down into a slow burn that slowly picks up pace as the stakes get higher and the story builds. Some interesting takes on life after death and how some people have it worse than others - not just bad guys, but anyone who made a name for themselves in life.
The narration by Marston York was quite good. I enjoyed his style and pacing. A few minor issues I jotted down while listening, the big issue being the occasionally repeated line that wasn't removed in post-production. Nothing major like huge swathes of text, but the occasional line that had me wondering if I were suffering from deja vu.
I was expecting something "utterly hilarious", but what I got was something occasionally funny. I don't want to make it sound like I hated it, far from it. I just think it was oversold a little. Will I listen to it again? Honestly, I don't know. Maybe? Probably not for a few years, though.
I Hope You Like Exposition
