Next, I read #4 in the Phryne Fisher series -- Death at Victoria Docks, superbly read by Stephanie Daniel. I've read all these in eBook format, but am doing a re-read of them as audio books. They're still quite delightful, and I'm having to space them out a bit to savour the pleasure.

Now reading #4 in the Confederation series, Valor's Trial.
Finished Valor's Trial and enjoyed it. A solid 4 stars of its type. A good narrator certainly helps.

Next up, The Green Mill Murder, number five in the superb Phryne Fisher series from Kerry Greenwood. These are all read by Stephanie Daniel, and she does and excellent job. They're short, most in the 5-6 hour range, and set in 1928-1929 Melbourne, Australia. The series builds with each new book, with new characters getting added to Phryne's "circle of influence". Or, in some cases, her actual family. These are re-reads for me, since I've read all the eBook versions (and seen every television version), but in most cases I haven't listened to the book before.
