Laying out all the evidence in the most comprehensive summary ever written about the Ripper, this book, by a London police officer and crime authority, has subjected every theory - including those that have emerged in recent years-to the same deep scrutiny. The author also examines the mythology surrounding the case and provides some fascinating insights into the portrayal of the Ripper on stage and screen and on the printed page. More seriously, he also examines the horrifying parallel crimes of the Düsseldorf Ripper and the Yorkshire Ripper.

Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

A Comedy-Tragedy of Gods Giants Dwarfs & Monsters

By: Neil Gaiman
Publisher's summary
From the internationally acclaimed author, a stunning gothic reimagining of the Jekyll and Hyde story in which Captain Edward Hyde, chief detective of Victorian Edinburgh, investigates a gruesome murder that may unmask his own darkest secret
Victorian Edinburgh. Captain Edward Henry Hyde is chief detective for the City of Edinburgh Police; as such, he is responsible for investigating all murders and serious crimes in the city. Hyde is a striking but severe-looking man who provokes unease, and often fear, in those who encounter him. Nevertheless, Edward Hyde is truly a good man...though he wrestles fiercely with his own unique demons.
When Hyde finds himself at the scene of a heinous murder, with no idea of how he got there or the events leading up to the discovery, his alarm is triggered on two levels. First, the crime scene is brutal and involves the Threefold Death, an ancient Celtic rite of sacrifice entangled with dark Scottish spiritual mythology. Second, Hyde's inability to remember any detail of his arrival at the crime scene makes him immediately fret about the secret he keeps from all but his physician: He suffers from a rare form of epilepsy that causes him to lose time—amnesiac absences where he cannot account for his actions—and nocturnal seizures that manifest themselves as vivid and lucid dreams.
As Hyde begins his investigation of the murder in a city on edge, he finds himself not only searching for real world clues, but trying to unravel the significance of the imagery in the otherworld of his dreaming. His investigation leads to the very places he fears, but has never fully imagined.
Critic reviews
Best Crime Novel of the Year: Winner of the McIlvanney Prize
"Russell writes a pacy, ever-twisting mystery that will keep you turning the pages."—Ian Rankin
"Evocative prose (“violence hung like mine dust in the air, waiting for a spark to bring it to combustion”) enhances a suspenseful and sophisticated plot. This is the rare riff on an influential novel that sticks the landing."—Publisher's Weekly *Starred Review*

Fine-art aficionado. Master of disguise. Jewelry expert. Historian. Gentleman. Burglar. Arsene Lupin is all of these and more. In 1905, Maurice Leblanc introduced his gentleman-burglar in the story "L'Arrestation d'Arsène Lupin". Shortly thereafter, the stories were collected as one single volume. In these charming adventures, Lupin orchestrates a myriad of extravagant heists in the very face of the determined Inspector Ganimard.

Edgar Allan Poe, the master of terror, wrote some of literature's most entertaining and influential short stories, works that invented or anticipated modern detective novels, science fiction, and the horror genre. Tales of Terror collects nine of Poe's best-loved stories, all performed in chilling, highly dramatic readings by Jack Foreman. This collection includes such classics as "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The Pit and the Pendulum", "The Fall of the House of Usher", and what many consider his masterpiece, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue."

Very like The Devil Aspect
Personally, I enjoyed both Hyde, and The Devil Aspect. But I’d recommend not reading them back to back as I did, because they are far too similar in plot. Of the two, I enjoyed the setting and Slavic mythology of the Devil Aspect a bit more than the Celtic mythology of Hyde. It was described more vividly.
I did enjoy the frame around this story, very much. It was a wry touch of the cap to Robert Louis Stevenson, himself a Scot’s writer.
Overall, highly recommended for those who like gothic and psychological mysteries.

Just OK
I though the narrator was terrific with dialogue and the portrayal of the various characters. His phrasing, however, interfered with my enjoyment of the book. His slight pauses, even in a simple sentence, made his delivery choppy to my ears. I probably won’t listen to another book with this narrator.
The story was an interesting take on the premise of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and though I listened to the entire thing, it’s not a book I would tell others they should read.

Hyde is a watered down version of Devil's Aspect
Hyde is a dark crime thriller set in the backdrop of 19th century Scotland. The author does a great job in his research and bringing to life the time period. And while I enjoyed the book it doesn't hold a candle to Craig's earlier work, The Devil Aspect. I listened to The DA as a deal of the day on Audible and what a treat that one was, I highly recommend, 5 stars across the board. This book is very similar in ways but I did not find myself nearly as engrossed in listening as I had with DA.

A gripping tale masterfully narrated
Hyde is a gripping, heart-shaking tale masterfully written and brilliantly narrated by James Cosmo. 19th century Edinburgh is brought to vivid life by Craig Russel's riveting tale and James Cosmo's beautiful Scottish brogue.

A great mystery
I am so glad I came across this book, I easily got sucked in to this Jekyll and Hyde retelling. The imagery was so good and the side characters had me guessing the whole time. Well worth the credit. Narration was well done.

brings the the place and time period to life
Narrator was great, love the mythology woven in, I rarely find a writer that makes me hang on every word like this one does. my only criticism, too many red herrings, or, either, too few hints at the true culprit until the last 45 minutes. I like a story that makes me say, "Why didn't I see that coming?!!" will definitely read/ listen to more of this writer.

A surprisingly good choice.
The beginning part of the book was excellent in world building…kudos to a few famous name drops! But what I especially enjoyed was how the ending not only tied up all the loose ends I can remember and the unforeseen ending.
