Summary
**Named an ‘Amazing Audiobook for Young Adults 2015’ by the Young Adult Library Services Association**
Ghosts and ghouls beware! London’s smallest, shabbiest, and most talented psychic detection agency is back.
Life is never exactly peaceful for Lockwood & Co. Lucy and George are trying to solve the mystery of the talking skull trapped in their ghost jar, while Lockwood is desperate for an exciting new case.
Things seem to be looking up when the team is called to Kensal Green Cemetery to investigate the grave of a sinister Victorian doctor. Strange apparitions have been seen there, and the site must be made safe. As usual, Lockwood is confident; as usual, everything goes wrong - a terrible phantom is unleashed, and a dangerous object is stolen from the coffin.
Lockwood & Co must recover the relic before its power is unleashed, but it’s a race against time. Their obnoxious rivals from the Fittes agency are also on the hunt. And if that’s not bad enough, the skull in the ghost-jar is stirring again.…
The author of the blockbuster Bartimaeus sequence delivers another humorous and chilling instalment in the critically acclaimed Lockwood & Co. series.

Brilliant.
A brilliant sequel to the first book. My personal favourite in the series; with a nice mix of grim humour and heart-racing action, The Whispering Skull is definitely worth a read.

Good.
I started listening to this series because of the Netflix show, and one thing that comes to mind when listening is how great the TV show captures the books. Sure there are some differences, but unlike how it usually is nothing is actually missing in the TV show, and some choices that are different I actually found better and more interesting. Too bad it got cancelled, but now I can finally go on to the third book and see what happens.
The narrator is good, but not as good as the woman who did the first book, the characterization isn't as good and it's harder to distinguish between characters in a conversation.

What’s not to love?
Again Johnathan Stroud has done so well. These books are wonderful for all ages. You can enjoy them as an adult or as a child. The world he has created is lovely

Loved the narrator in the first and second audio
I absolutely love the reading in this book, not fond of the reader in the after books, in the series.
