Cowboys and Chaos

Magical Cozy Mystery Book Club #3

An epic cozy mystery adventure!

This is no ordinary book club! When the group chooses a book, they are whisked away from reality to find themselves immersed in the story. The characters, the setting, and the murder all come to life. In order to exit the book, they need to solve the mystery and reach “The End.”

This time, the club chooses a mystery that takes place in a quaint western town – in the old Wild West. That sounds like fun, until they arrive in the dusty old town in the Arizona desert, among cowboys, horses, and saloons. They discover that the outhouse isn’t the worse thing about this trip. Solving two mysteries will keep them on their toes.

The good news is that Paige, Glo, Zell, Frank, and the other members of the club discover plenty of surprises, and they have a great time visiting a piece of history. They’ll get to live through many exciting moments as they unravel this cozy mystery story.

C&C Bk 3

So far Bk 3 is my favorite in the series - I got this book because I liked the premise of falling into a book physically. While I'm not a huge fan of cozy mysteries I can't complain, since the series clearly identifies "cozy" but the series left me wanting more out of the story, I felt this series had loads of promise for it's idea's of travelling within the book - The character "Moonbeam" was totally redundant and in my opinion and brought the book down instead of adding a new dimension to the story line. Moonbeam also spends too much time minding other peoples business and wanting to correct their language and behaviour -
The virtual voice narrator still needs work, but it's one of the better virtual voice AI that I've listened to. The problem with virtual voice is that it lacks lilt and sarcasm, and idioms like "Tomato - Toe-mot-o" are lost on virtual voice, so it's difficult to feel part of the story in my opinion.

Bad automated narration

The audio narration was terrible. The grandmas name is GG but the narrator put a 2 second pause between the Gs and that was very annoying. The story was good and interesting.

The characters are fun and it is a good story

I am loving this series! It is easy and fun to listen to. Highly recommend the stories!
The AI voice definitely had some issues. The voice itself is pleasant but the inflections are way wrong and it's very hard to tell when someone starts talking and when they stop talking. The name "GiGi" was almost never right....at first it annoyed me and then I got to where I would just laugh almost every time it said the name.
If you want a fun, grownup Magic Tree House type series.....listen or read these!

Easy listen

I don’t really like computer generated narration but am loving the series. I think my favorite character so far is Frank.

Paranormal Cowboy Cozy Mystery

"Cowboys and Chaos (Magical Mystery Books Club #3)" by Elizabeth Pantley is even better than the previous two books. The author is really hitting a stride with this series. Now, being a paranormal cozy mystery series you may ask, "how can a cowboy story be a paranormal story too!" Ghosts. Well, one ghost. In this one the book club is trying to solve the mystery of how their ghost friend died while in the old west.

This one gets a few new plot twists thrown in that make you think a little. There was one reveal I kinda saw coming. However, it was more of a "I knew it!" in excitement.
