Warlock Holmes may have demons in his head, but now Dr. John Watson has a mummy in his bloodstream. Specifically that of the sorcerer Xantharaxes, who when shredded and dissolved in an 8 percent solution, results in some extremely odd but useful prophetic dreams. There's also the small matter of Watson falling for yet another damsel-du-jour, and Warlock deciding that his companion needs some domestic bliss....

Story
Sherlock Holmes is an unparalleled genius who uses the gift of deduction and reason to solve the most vexing of crimes. Warlock Holmes, however, is an idiot. A good man, perhaps; a font of arcane power, certainly. But he's brilliantly dim. Frankly, he couldn't deduce his way out of a paper bag. The only thing he has really got going for him are the might of a thousand demons and his stalwart flatmate. Thankfully, Dr. Watson is always there to aid him through the treacherous shoals of Victorian propriety.

Just like the detective of the same last name Warlock solves crimes, but instead of using his powers of deduction, he uses powers of a more magical nature. With the help of his ever resourceful and trusted companion, Dr. Watson, Holmes solves some of the oddest and supernatural cases in England. Having recently returned from the dead, Warlock needs some serious recuperation time, so he can appear a little less corpse-like.

It is a dark time for the world. Humanity is just crawling out from under 300 years of domination by the race of vampires known as the Nobility. The war against the vampires has taken its toll; cities lie in ruin, the countryside is fragmented into small villages and fiefdoms that still struggle against nightly raids by the fallen vampires - and the remnants of their genetically manufactured demons and werewolves.

A weekly newspaper dedicated to the weird and the wonderful (but mostly the weird), The Stranger Times is the go-to publication for the unexplained and inexplicable. At least that's their pitch. The reality is rather less auspicious. Their editor is a drunken, foul-tempered and foul-mouthed husk of a man who thinks little of the publication he edits. His staff are a ragtag group of misfits. And as for the assistant editor...well, that job is a revolving door - and it has just revolved to reveal Hannah Willis, who's got problems of her own.

Absolutely Fabulous!
I've "seen" so-called dramatizations fairly ruin good audiobooks. So when I saw these on offer, I thought, "Oh hell no..."
Then ASiB popped up on YouTube, and I thought, "Why not?" (I swear I'd try anything if it was free...)
As a British friend of mine used to say: "FanTAStic!" I've listened to the original readings of this series several times now. Holmes pastiches are trendy and often tiresome, but the Warlock Holmes stories are sufficiently bent to be fresh. Nevertheless, so many repetitions have made them too familiar. I figured I'd have to go cold turkey (Goose!) for at least a year, before enjoying them again.
Then along come these gems to hilariously revitalize the WH chronicles. As the saying goes, "Less is more", and these wonderful bits of audio theatre perfectly demonstrate that principle. They are the perfect balance of narration, acting, music and sound effects.
I listened to the first 20 minutes or so of a "dramatization" a few years ago, The background music was grating and continuous, the sound effects were loud, unrealistic and obnoxious, and the performances were monotone.
These GraphicAudio "movies for your mind" do it proper. The background music is better than that found on most TV shows, the sound effects are used judiciously, and blend so well with the plot action and performances that they are barely noticeable, and the voice characterizations are spot-on. (In fact, the sound fx are often comical in themselves, in the context of a given scene, being obviously quite tongue in cheek.)
Unfortunately, I can't share any of the myriad of great moments, because I really don't want to spoil the experience for anyone else. As a dedicated fan of this series, I can't recommend these dramatizations highly enough. You won't be disappointed. Without dropping any spoilers, I can tell you that if you are a little jaded with the original readings, you'll find yourself laughing all over again at these productions.
