Summary

Joseph Lake doesn’t know who he is or where he came from, but he’s beginning to think that the answer might be the death of him.

By day, Joseph scrubs toilets and fixes broken light fittings, by night he looks into weird stuff: Local hauntings, unexplained disappearances, satanic cabals dancing naked around ancient stone circles.

The usual.

The uncanny calls to him like a beacon, and he follows its signal wherever it leads, hoping that one day it will shine a light on who he really is.

Can Joseph put the pieces together and figure out his identity? And if he does, will he be able to live with who he really is?

Mystery, scares, and fast-paced action collide in this thrilling urban fantasy. Dark Lakes: A Three-Book Collection, combines the first three books in the Dark Lakes series:

  • Magic Eater
  • Blood Stones
  • Past Sins

The narrator IS Joseph Lake!

Brilliantly funny and touching urban fantasy adventures. The characters were flawed, relatable and so well written. Loved it, I laughed out loud so many times but I also cried. Please say there will be a 4th book?! Also, the narrator? Absolutely perfect, you could not have found a better voice talent for this!

A wonderful find

Some of the best stories have been found completely by accident. I couldn't put these down, listening at every opportunity I was so drawn into the stories. You've got to love Joe Lake hilariously ridiculous with great hair and Eva, very flawed yet still so likeable and hilarious.

Thanks for these books.

bloody luved it.

absolutely brilliant. hope there will be more. narrated performance spot on. the bad language, which fits the characters perfectly is not offensive though be warned it is not to be listened to in public. 😂

That was a very good listen

Thoroughly enjoyed these books. Great narration and a good story.
It’s an easy listen, nothing too taxing but a great way to pass a few hours. There were some great throw away laugh out loud lines along with some sad ones, so all in all, a decent set of books.

Great story, stunning narrator.

Great story (little gory in places but I just shut me ears for those bits). I chuckled out loud at regular intervals and came close to tears at other times. But really Dave Jones made this story come alive. I could visualise all of it, almost feel it happening to me. His accent is soft and warm like hot chocolate but he made the ‘idiot’ endearing, Eva lovable and each monster sent the hairs standing up on the back of my neck! Wish I could find more books that he has narrated.
