“[A] wonderful novel.... Waters is almost Dickensian in her wealth of description and depth of character.” (Chicago Tribune)

Moving back through the 1940s, through air raids, blacked-out streets, illicit partying, and sexual adventure, to end with its beginning in 1941, The Night Watch tells the story of four Londoners - three women and a young man with a past - whose lives, and those of their friends and lovers, connect in tragedy, stunning surprise, and exquisite turns, only to change irreversibly in the shadow of a grand historical event.

If you are a fan of reading things in which the whole point of the story seems to be about the human condition, then you will love this. i just need something more. Waters is skilled at the little details, but would work better as a movie than just a book. Books I require it gives a little more and I found this one lacking personally. But everyone likes different things, and some people may love it.

Just Ok

While this is not Waters' best, it's still a very good read. Juliet Stevenson's narration is tops, once again. I almost felt I was listening to someone with multiple personalities.

Great Combination of Author and Narrator

I didn't care much for this story. As usual, Sarah Waters writes beautifully, but the plot line was slow moving and the ending was not the payoff I was expecting. I really enjoyed the other novels of hers I read/listened too, The Little Stranger and The Paying Guests. I would recommend those over this novel.

slow moving without a satisfying conclusion

I really enjoyed the way that the story was structured. I have listed to every Sarah Waters book on audible and have really enjoyed them. This one was no different. Can not recommend enough. It's worth your time. I don't want to give anything away, but the way the author weaves the connections of the characters is nothing short of masterful. The performance is engaging and really pulls you into the story.

Interesting way to tell a story.

As a devoted fan of Sarah Waters, having read and loved four of her previous works, "The Night Watch" was a highly anticipated addition to my collection. While it may not be my personal favorite among her enchanting novels, it is undeniably a compelling and thought-provoking read.

Set against the backdrop of World War II, "The Night Watch" delves into the lives of four main characters, showcasing the profound impact of war on their individual journeys. Waters' meticulous attention to detail allows readers to vividly imagine the struggles and hardships faced by real people during this tumultuous time.

Though the book may lack the intricate and intricate plots that are characteristic of Waters' other works, it makes up for it with its exploration of the human spirit and resilience. The story revolves around the lives of the main characters, and their interconnectedness adds depth and complexity to the narrative. The emotional depth and growth of these characters, as they navigate through the challenges of war, are truly captivating.

Waters' writing style, as always, is impeccable. Her ability to create a rich and immersive atmosphere is evident throughout the book. The historical setting is brought to life with vivid descriptions and a keen sense of authenticity.

While "The Night Watch" may not rank as my top favorite among Sarah Waters' works, it is still a remarkable testament to her storytelling prowess. Despite the absence of intricate plots, the book shines in its portrayal of the human experience amidst the ravages of war.

“The Night Watch" is a must-read for fans of Sarah Waters and those interested in historical fiction. It may not be my personal favorite, but it remains a compelling and evocative novel that explores the enduring effects of war on individuals. Sarah Waters continues to deliver enthralling stories, and "The Night Watch" is no exception.

Also Juanita McMahon's narration in "The Night Watch" is simply amazing. Her ability to bring the characters to life and convey their emotions is remarkable. McMahon's voice is captivating and her performance is truly immersive. If you're looking for an audiobook that will keep you hooked from beginning to end, McMahon's narration in "The Night Watch" is an absolute must-listen.

A Captivating Tale of Resilience and War

I liked the story and enjoyed it
I found it a little strange that the later time period was our first… and also felt that it was quite graphic (like an hour plus on an abortion… and other things) but really loved it despite those complaints. If you are ok with graphic things and love history and queer story lines, give it a listen!

Kinda conflicted

Good story, a little confusing till you get the hang of the reverse chronological storylines. Very detailed description of the streets of the London, made me feel like I had lived there myself. Excellent performance!

Good romance during wartime Britton

This was my favorite of Sarah Waters books so far. I loved the story line and the multifaceted characters were superb. Her description of events made me feel like I was there and I knew her characters personally. I was so sad when it ended that I’m going to start it again. It was perfect!

Absolutely FANTASTIC!

Interesting story. Moving from current day to prequel to pre-prequel was innovative. But really slow and boring much of the time.

Sloooooow developing
