Summary

Private eye Jake Sullivan is a war hero - and an ex-con. He's free because he has a magical talent, and the Feds need his help in apprehending criminals with their own magical abilities. Jake's talent is gravity spiking. He can vary the force of gravity however he wishes in an area. When it comes to spiking, Jake is the best.

Now a rich beauty walks into his office to hire Jake to find her missing husband, a magical healer who has ties to the Detroit mob. Jake takes the case, but little does he know that there are plots within plots waiting to ensnare him, and solving the case may require fighting for his life with the odds stacked against him. But Jake is used to that. And now it's Christmas. Time to deck the walls with splattered bodies!

Detroit Christmas is a richly imagined, fully produced audio play, with original music, film-quality sound effects, and an amazing cast.

Ultra cheesy, with an extra serving of cheese

This full cast production has some cartoon level of cheese. I can't tell if they meant it to be this cheesy, in which case, mission accomplished (with flying colours), or if they were trying to make a serious production. Even though I got this on a 2-for-1 sale, I'm going to have to return it.

Story is a bit disjointed.

Other audio books in the Grimnoir Chronicles are much better. So don't stop with this one.

Dreadful

Wow... This is honestly the worst thing I have subjected myself to on Audible yet.

I am a fan of the original Grimnoir trilogy but I just couldn't stomach the cheesy voice acting in this travesty. I gave up after 30 mins. The acting in it is more cheesy than the 1960's batman TV series.

Disappointing

I'd really enjoyed the books in the series but this was just nowhere near as good. It's more like a radio play and the characters were shallow.

Urrrgghhhh.

The Grimnoir Chronicles are excellent. A fantastic trilogy, with marvellous narration. This, sadly, is the exact opposite.

Terrible

A waste of a credit/money. I love the Grimnoir tales usually but this performance was so awful in terms of cheesiness plus the story was disjointed and felt like only scattered pages of a full story had been found and used. If I’d listened to this one first, I’d have never bothered with what is usually a great series.

Don't start with this

Read the main books first. This is not the best introduction to the world or the character. A Christmas Special.
