Publisher's summary
It is June 1940. The war against Hitler’s forces is raging. And the tide is turning against the British. In this hour of despair, Prime Minister Winston Churchill receives a mysterious letter from an even more mysterious woman, offering a Faustian bargain and a promise of victory. But if Churchill accepts, will he be condemning his nation’s very soul?
Darkness Visible is based on the graphic novel of the same name, written by Mike Carey and Arvind Ethan David, and stars Christian McKay as Winston Churchill and Miranda Richardson as Lady Vivian.
Earworms is a series of short, speculative fiction dramas–tales of what might have been...or might yet be...or perhaps in fact are, if only you were paying attention...if only you were listening.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

So, when Tansy’s ex-husband – fellow monster hunter Rex Barclay – turns up like a bad penny and asks for her help with his latest investigation, Tansy reluctantly agrees.

Use his new abilities to hunt down demonic beings that have infiltrated the mortal realm. This time, the White Throne has sent him to the middle of nowhere: a Western town called Dead Acre with a saloon, a moldy church, and little else worth talking about. There isn’t even a sheriff.

I was enjoying this until…
Bigotry got in the way at the very end. *spoiler alert* It was totally unnecessary to the story to make a direct - and very flawed - comparison between the Jews/Israel to demons/Gibraltar. It almost feels like Audible is not following its own guidelines set forth for reviewers, since comparing a religious group to demons could be considered to be offensive with no stretch of the imagination. Adding to this, although maybe more central to the story, was the framing of the leader of WW2 Germany as as more moral than Churchill in his choice of ally. I’m a bit leery of the timing of this. That being said, great voice work & production values.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Predictable
What a transparent lightweight story. As soon as the other being appeared and the deal was struck . . .

Fun blend of History and the supernatural
I always enjoy stories that incorporate real history with some fantastical story telling. It’s a rather quick story, but the production is on point.
I wish the ending was a bit more fleshed out and wasn’t so abrupt. But if you’re just wanting a super quick listen, it’s not a bad choice.

Not worth one credit
One credit for a summary teaser? I expected a book not something that lasted for an hour maybe I didn't read the fine print

Insanely interesting
It's been a long time since I read a story that hit me like this one. WOW. Amazing story, well written and very thought provoking. The audio production is top notch.

The incredible sound design and voice acting!
I love the tight story, the seamless blend into real history. My only gripe is that the ending seemed rather abrupt but it was mostly cause I didn’t want it to end

Interesting
Very interesting alternative take on WW-2 history. Curious to see what happens next. I enjoyed the performances; Richardson is excellent as always and the personification of Churchill was really good.

Churchill was well performed.
I enjoyed the performance but found the ending a bit trite and muddled. Overall, it was fun till the wrap-up.

Hmm
Right when it seemed like it was just starting to get good it was over. Wish it was a longer story

Fast and fun
I like the different voices of characters better in a short story. This was like a short play. I liked it
