Druid Detective Agency (Books 1-7)

By: Theophilus Monroe

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

My wife, Emilie, and I run a detective agency – not your typical kind.

We specialize in the otherworldly, the kind that surfaces when magic bleeds into our world.

Lately, the bleed has become a gusher.

Strange creatures, ripped straight from myth and nightmare, are pouring out of a portal hidden in the city.

But they're not just sightseeing – they're leaving a trail of bodies in their wake.

And it's clear their target isn't just any innocent citizen, it's the little boy living under our roof – Merlin.

Yes, that Merlin.

Raising a legendary wizard in the 21st century is no walk in the park, especially when his ancient enemies keep popping up to try and stop him reaching his destiny.

Now, with these murderous creatures on the loose, the stakes have never been higher.

Who opened the portal? Why are they after Merlin?

And how can we stop them before they silence the future's greatest sorcerer... and take a whole lot of innocent lives with him?

This is our story. How we became not just druids—but detectives.

All I know is that we’re the only ones standing between our city and these monsters.

And if we can’t protect Merlin, if something harms him before he can go back in time to fulfill his destiny, it will change everything…

...and not for the better.

A twist on an old story

I will not purchase anymore books with virtual narration. The story was good but the narration ruined it.

had the makings of a good story

the sophmoric humor became such a distraction I quit listening in the second book.

Virtual Narration Stinks

First I will say that I like the story. It is engaging and fun with plenty of humor.

The virtual Narration sucks. AI can't figure out proper inflection like a real person yet. It was very monotone and boring to listen to. It seems like they decided to use a virtual narrator and then did not bother to listen to the books at all after the narration was finished. Some thing just should not be done by AI and narrating so far is one of them.
