About this listen

As a Victorian clergyman's daughter, Edith Worms has seen everything-until a mythical salamander tumbles out of the fireplace into her lap.

When a letter arrives from estranged relatives, Edith is swept away to a crumbling gothic Abbey in the wilds of Yorkshire. Wormwood Abbey isn't just full of curious beasts and ancient family secrets: there's also a tall, dark, and entirely too handsome neighbor who is strangely reluctant for her to leave.

An unexpected bond with her prickly cousin Gwendolyn gives Edith a reason to stay in this strange world-especially when it turns out that Edith herself may have a role in guarding her family's legacy.

But not all of the mysteries of Ormdale are small enough to fit in her lap . . . and some of them have teeth.

Wormwood Abbey, Book 1 of The Secrets of Ormdale, is a cozy gothic novel of mystery, dragons, and the perils of friendship, perfect for fans of Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries and Maria Grace.

Wonderful narration

This is a marvellous series and I was excited to see an audiobook version. The narration by Elizabeth Knowelden is wonderful. She has a lovely sense of comedic timing and does a wonderful job bringing to life Edith Worms, our no-nonsense heroine.

If you love dragons, mysterious characters and a strong female protagonist, this is the series for you! Pour yourself a strong cup of tea and enjoy it while you listen!
