About this listen

Winner of 2021 Voice Arts Award, Audiobook Narration — Fantasy

"He thinks he's a wizard," they said.

For five grand a month and a million-dollar chaser, Roger Mulligan didn't care how crazy the old geezer was. All he had to do was keep Joseph Perry Shackleford alive and keep him from squandering the estate for a year.

But they didn't tell him about the pixies.

Not high literature, but if vol. 2 had been available, I would have bought it.
A reasonable intro volume, it feels like a deeper insight into this magical world and development of characters may follow. And, I kind of just love Mulligan. I can relate to his acceptance of and assimilation to the magical ambience of this environs, and his welcome surrender of anger and adrenalin in the face of their comfort and quitetude.
I'm definitely interested to see how the series develops, too.

wierdly engaging...

So nice to listen to a story that gets you in right from the start, no great magic feats, not swamped by a lot of characters just a wonderful easy to listen to story. Looking forward to book 2 and where it might lead me.

wonderful surprise

Urban fantasy in which one protagonist faces a challenge from a hostile family member, and another finds life taking an unexpected turn. I found this narrative engaging and soothing. I quite liked the detail. I enjoyed that the characters were ordinary people, some "talented", some not, but no one was the centre of an apocalypse or epic prophesy.

Charming and gentle

Thank goodness a book that’s interesting right from the start.
If you’re after bombs, car chases, action man - you’ll be disappointed. If you want love stories, mystery or murder, you’ll be disappointed.
This is an intriguing fantasy set in real life of a man who becomes a butler to a millionaire in a mansion, and that millionaire thinks he’s a wizard. There’s fine funny stuff goes on. More a family drama than a Harry Potter. I loved it. Can’t wait until the next one - Hurry up Nathan!!

Really enjoyed this
