Publisher's Summary

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.

Excellent story - lively and gripping

The narrator absolutely makes this story a delight to listen to. While it is a little slow to get to going it is well worth the time spent setting the stage for all that characters. The story is really quite interesting with many amusing angles. It's also got great characters and a thoroughly gripping story line.
I was very sorry that this ended and would love to read/hear more from this author.
I also highly recommend the narrator. He keeps a measured pace which is way too follow and has an amazing repitoire of character voices and accents. Very easy to follow the dialogue with numerous characters are speaking.
Simply top notch from start to finish.
