Gardening David ,

Eli Marks books and podcast

First found the Eli Marks books on Audible when I was looking for something different to listen to. Have now listened to them all and enjoyed them all, well scripted with excellent characterisation and of course read by the talented Jim Cunningham ✨.
Now listening to the podcast I am finding the interview section to be fascinating and full of great information. Well worth a listen and with bonus of a free reading on chapters from an Eli Marks mystery.
Can’t recommend the books and podcast enough.

Delacorta ,

A great listen

I started listening to the podcast having listened to all the Eli Marks audiobooks. It’s great hearing the interviews and even listening again to the terrific narration of The Ambitious Card.
