Have read and listened to all of Mark Watson’s works and this is a perfect format for him (and me). It’s the only podcast I listen to the minute it drops. Thanks Mark, can’t wait for the next episode
Absolutely engrossing. You are quickly submerged into a world that initially seems odd, and yet regularly allows you to take a breath with more realistically mundane aspects of life. Thoroughly addictive. Can't believe I'm so hooked!
Fun and funny. Nice and twisty. Watson is utterly charming. The wait for new episodes to drop is a punish!
This is full of promise. Echoes of Mark’s novels in its writing style. If I could master the Discord app, I’d have a go at that. Yep! I’m in. Can’t wait for further episodes. (Just listened to Chapter 4…). 😀
I’m brand new to Mark Watson’s fiction - hot damn can this dude write (and perform, and cast, and connect strangers, and invent formats apparently)! I’ve found myself actively looking forward to Sunday morning 💖
It’s cozy. It’s charming. It’s fascinating. (And not at all grisly in the way some mystery pods can be).
