Story
Once upon a time, in the magical land of San Francisco, there lived a not-so-ordinary girl named Laurel Pettigrew. She was supposed to be the Chosen One. The plan was simple: She would vanquish the great evil Tybus in an epic battle. But destiny had other ideas, and Laurel's performance in the whole heroics department was a colossal flop. Now, instead of being a legendary hero, Laurel's the resident pariah of the magic realm. And what’s worse, the dark wizard Tybus swooped in, took over the realm, and forced all supernatural creatures to live under his tyrannical rule.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
Neal Stephenson is a blazing new force on the sci-fi scene. With the groundbreaking cyberpunk novel Snow Crash, he has "vaulted onto the literary stage." It weaves virtual reality, Sumerian myth, and just about everything in between with a cool, hip cybersensibility - in short, it is the gigathriller of the information age.

Publisher's Summary
Britain is under New Management. The disbanding of the Laundry - the British espionage agency that deals with supernatural threats - has culminated in the unthinkable: an elder god in residence in 10 Downing Street.
But in true 'the enemy of my enemy' fashion, Mhari Murphy finds herself working with His Excellency Nylarlathotep on foreign policy - there are worse things, it seems, than an elder god in power, and they lie in deepest, darkest America.
A thousand-mile-wide storm system has blanketed the Midwest, and the president is nowhere to be found. Mhari must lead a task force of disgraced Laundry personnel into the storm front to discover the truth. But working for an elder god is never easy, and as the stakes rise, Mhari will soon question exactly where her loyalties really lie.

Story great, not keen on narrator
The story is just what I’d expect of a Laundry Files novel: fast paced, geeky creepy and a lot of fun. I just wish that for a story whose main characters are British, they could have got a narrator whose attempts at British accents were less cringeworthy. I still enjoyed listening to this book, but the awful "British" accents (that would likely only sound good to an American) were honestly a bit of a slog to my ears.

Why did they change actors?
The accents were done so badly I couldn't finish. It was really off putting. How did anyone think this was good enough for release?

Great story, little quiet at times.
Volume level was a bit up and down, a bit too quiet at times. The story was great though and lots of accents.

Sadly not worth the effort.
The story is passable but not up tp Stross’’ usual standard. The narration is appalling; the attempted English accents make Dick van Dyck seem professional. The nuances and subtleties are lost and there seem to be some on the fly editing and translations into american. Diction and timing are inconsistent. The amateurish narration is compounded by post production standards , sound levels vary wildly even on single words. The end product is difficult to listen to and not very enjoyable.

Poor performance prevents pleasurable pastime
Distractingly bad accents and characterization make this listen a real chore. I love the Laundry Files, so I've really tried to get through the bad parts. Sadly I just can't do it.

Accents are intolerable
A pretty interesting story made unbearable by the constant use totally horrendous accents. I struggled to follow the pilot because of how distractingly poor the narrator is, and I had to force myself to complete it so I can try the next book. How on earth did this make it through the editing/approval process?
