This series is so enjoyable!

This series is just so enjoyable! The romance is soooo slow burn, the feeling are there but the relationship has gotten stuck before it really gets going, but I think this time is necessary for Matt/Hugh to figure out some really important things. It also is just laying the groundwork for a really great relationship in the future! Matt has a lot going on in this one, and I just really love seeing him become more secure in his place in the supe world, while solving kind of kooky mysteries! With lots of cameos from past series/books, this story is fun from start to finish

fantastic narration of a really good story

Love this series. Read this story awhile ago and really enjoyed Greg's narration. Loved the voices Greg did for the characters and hearing the pronunciation of words I wasn't sure of how to say when I read the book.

Brilliant

I'm loving this series. The focus is on 'supe' based investigations with an ongoing romance plot in the background. Due to the way the romance is progressing there is no smut (or even kissing) at this stage, but the slow development of the relationship is lovely and gentle. Hugh, short for Human, is the narrator and the only non-supe in the PI Agency he works for. This makes for some amusing fish out of water situations.
The investigation is wrapped up in this book, so technically it could be read as a standalone but the relationship thread carries over from the previous book, so it would help to have read that for context.
The narrator is excellent, adding an additional layer to the story

Excellent series continues

Greg's narration continues to be fantastic as we follow Matt's second adventure. It feels like I'm just pulled along for the ride as this character talks to, and entertains me. Love the voices provided for all of the characters.
The Hound of the Burgervilles follows on from Five Dead Herrings where we read Matt, aka Hugh Man, the only human working at Quest Investigations and also the only one who is sanctioned to know about the Supe community, work on cases on a probationary period.
Things get off to a crazy start when he hopes to help his, hopefully, future boyfriend with a problem but as is normally the case, it all goes off piste pretty quickly. This leads to him being put back on surveillance duty and a weird case of a dog sighting at a Burgerville. Everything quickly devolves to include a missing Herne and his pack of hounds, interaction with a god in Hell and a little trip into Sheol with the lovable/crazy group of people that work at Quest Investigations.
Matt is so sweet in his eagerness to learn and help those around him that it sometimes goes too far, often not helped by Jordan's puppy like behaviour. He's not really got a place in the community that he works and lives in as the only human which is why I think he works so hard to help Lachlan so they have a chance to be together. The group make me think of a family with how different they all are but come together perfectly to help each other and the people that they work to save/protect.
I enjoyed the case that unfolds throughout the book. It gets more intense as we go on and little bits of information are revealed. This time the story involves some quite big characters and brings back some unwanted people from their past, all of which make what's going on all the more difficult for everyone involved as they work to work out what's going on and then step up to save the day.
Another great story in this series from EJ Russell. I love how Matt basically talks to the reader as we go through the story. His character makes this an enjoyable read and I'm enjoying the slowly developing relationship and romance between him and Lachlan. Jordan also tugs on my heart with his eagerness to help and be there for the team but that is sometimes his downfall. He definitely steps up this time, though, when it comes to Doop and taking care of him. A highly recommended read that I think should be read in order.

Cute story

Matt’s up to trouble again – quelle surprise. I love this series, centering around the paranormal Quest Investigations. Matt’s the only human in the mix and with his trusty werewolf companion and dryad friend, is getting into all kinds of mischief again. He starts out by trying to track down the man he loves who is tracking his ex-husband (long story) but things fall off the rails and Matt’s back on surveillance.

Just in time, a case walks in the door. There’s a huge dog hanging around the back of the Burgerville restaurants trying to grab food. Not just a normal dog, though. The human reporting this beast knows there’s something off, but it’s up to Matt to figure out what.

This story has all the elements of the paranormal that I’ve come to expect, a good mystery, and many of my favorite characters. Oh, and Jordan. Gotta love Jordan.

Greg Boudreaux does a great job of narrating these stories and I can see there’s another one, so hopefully it comes out soon.

Great fun!

E.J. Russell has a great sense of humor that comes across wonderfully here in this series.
The Hound of Burgerville is the second book in the Quest Investigations series, and I recommend reading the books in order.
I like this series, which is very creative. This book was very entertaining - that was due to both the romance and the magic, then there were some funny moments and some mystery moments.

Greg Boudreaux is a great narrator for this series. He was phenomenal as always, he understands and lives the characters with all the different accents. I love his Scottish act accent for Lachlan!
I am already looking forward to more audiobooks in this series!

The Hound of the Burgerville

EJ Russell does world-building so well! This story is just what I needed for my listening slump. A great mystery with all the good stuff thrown in. Greg Boudreaux is quickly becoming one of my favorites. The narration is phenomenal.

Witty and Funny and Wonderful!

This series is so creative, and so cute. E.J. Russell has a fabulous sense of humor, and it totally comes out in these novels!

The Hound of the Burgervilles is the second book in the Quest Investigations series, and they must be read in order. Or what's even better? How about enjoying them in audio!

Narrated by the marvelous Greg Boudreaux, whose range of accents and voices which surpasses every other narrator out there. E.J. Russell certainly chose well for this series.

Greg Boudreaux brings out every bit of Matt/Hugh's adorable character, and his Scots accent for Lachlan is absolutely drool-worthy!

an audiobook copy of The Hound of the Burgervilles was provided to me for the purpose of my honest review, all opinions are my own

Great book I loved it

I'm absolutely adoring this series! I love the magic world and all the supernatural people and I love the setting. Each book follows a different case and a different investigation  but the main character is Matt, a human trying to find his place, and love, in this magical world.  The romance is slow burn and a subplot and I'm enjoying it very much. 

This investigation was interesting and adventurous and I loved how Matt was able to help.

The side characters are amazing, my favorite is Jordan.

I can't wait to read more books in this series!

The narrator was brilliant and brought the story and the characters to life beautifully.
