Summary

Diana Gabaldon, number one New York Times best-selling author of the celebrated Outlander series, delivers three mesmerizing tales of war, intrigue, and espionage that feature one of her most popular characters: Lord John Grey.

In "Lord John and the Hellfire Club", Lord John glimpses a stranger in the doorway of a gentleman's club - and is stirred by a desperate entreaty to meet with him in private. It is an impulse that will lead Lord John into a maze of political treachery and a dangerous, debauched underground society. 

In "Lord John and the Succubus", English soldiers fighting in Prussia are rattled by a lethal creature that appears at night. Called to investigate, Lord John soon realizes that among the spirits that haunt men, none frighten more than the specters conjured by the heart. 

In "Lord John and the Haunted Soldier", Lord John is thrust into the baffling case of an exploding battlefield cannon that ultimately forces him to confront his own ghosts - and the shattering prospect that a traitor is among the ranks of His Majesty's armed forces.

I've been enjoying the Lord John series so far and will continue listening. But I'm taking issue with the recording. I agree with some reviews that it's really unfortunate that they have chosen an American narrator instead of an English one.
My issue, however, is the editor. Especially the second story is ridden with mistakes where one can hear that they should have been cut! It was increasingly annoying to hear sentences repeated because nobody took the time to do a proper editing job!

Good story, unfortunate recording quality

I love the book but I removed one star because of the editing of book one.
The narrator repeated lines on more than one occasion.
This does not occur in book two or three

love the stories & Lord John. Shame we couldn't have Davina Porter narrating as per the main books

Great stories, still not keen on narrators..

These are great stories, spoilt by the reader, who I imagine is a American striving for an English accent. it grates on the nerves!

I really don't like the reader

The best place to find how to read these in the right order related to the full novels is to read the Lord John series article in Wikipedia.

Also beware not to spend a credit on the separate LJ and the Hellfire Club as it is the same recording as the one in here and thus a waste of a credit.

Diana Gabaldon breaks rules that a lesser author with a less loyal fan base could never get away with, but those of us who appreciate her work are just happy to get the stories.

The delivery by Jeff Woodman is criticised by some reviewers of the series, personally I think he does an excellent job.

Research the order of listening.
