Darkside

By: Tom Becker

Narrated by: Colin Moody

Your home's been attacked. Your dad's in an asylum. You're running for your life. And there's nowhere to hide. You've stumbled on the city's greatest secret: Darkside. Incredibly dangerous and unimaginably exciting, Darkside is ruled by Jack the Ripper's children - a place where nightmares walk the streets. You think you're in trouble now, but your problems have just begun...©2007 Tom Becker. (P)2008 Bolinda Publishing

Critic reviews

"Fourteen-year-old Jonathan Sterling's secretive father lies in a hospital, mad and sick. This sets Jonathan, a truant student, on a mission to discover his father's hidden past. References to 'the darkness' lead him to a library, where he meets Mary Anne, who has white skin, purple hair, and sedating perfume. She promises to lead him to Darkside, a hidden world beneath London. Colin Moody is chillingly convincing in this portrayal, and his narration becomes mysterious and forbidding as we follow Jonathan underground. Moody highlights Jonathan's desperation to understand, and then escape, the treacherous nineteenth-century world he finds there, which is peopled with vampires and ghouls. Particularly strong is Moody's growling depiction of a P.I. 'wereman' who nearly eats Jonathan before becoming his friend." (AudioFile Magazine)

I Absolutely Adore This Book

The characters are so well rounded and it just keeps you wanting more. I really wish the rest were on here. I've been reading these books since middle school and I'm in my 20s now but I love them so much. Audiobooks are just more convenient for me now so please add the rest soon 🙏🏼
