About book The Angel's Kiss: A Melody Malone Mystery (2012)

Melody Malone is a private investigator and is called in to investigate a mystery involving film star, Rock Railton, who thinks someone is out to kill him. When Melody starts to investigate she realizes that something supernatural is going on and works to stop them before more people are hurt.I'm a big Doctor Who fan so the idea of a mystery series surrounding one of the characters is a great concept to me. While not a huge fan of Melody Malone in the Doctor Who tv show I was looking forward to seeing what direction she was going to go in a mystery series. Turns out she's a PI in the 1930's and she's fun, FUN, FUN! Well she's very outgoing and oozing sexuality as she is in Doctor Who, and she is quite a good investigator. I like that the story has the supernatural aspect with the "angels". The final twists were really interesting, and I'm hoping there will be more stories about Melody Malone. There is a lot of potential with the character and her job as a PI so I'm crossing my fingers there will be more stories.Alex Kingston narrates this audiobook and as she plays Melody Malone in the tv series she's the perfect choice. She does a great job as a narrator and I'm looking forward to listening to her narrate again.Recommended for supernatural mystery fans and Doctor Who fans. This book is a prequel to the Doctor Who episode –Angels in Manhattan, which is not exactly what I was expecting but I was still every entertained. The last line or two of this story are the lines we hear read by the Doctor to Amy at the start of the Angles episode. I was expecting to read about events that happened during the episode but I think that what I got was something better since it is probably more interesting to read about the events leading up to the episode than rereading events that I already witnessed.Aside from the plot the book itself was fantastic. River as Melody Malone could be its own spin off. Malone/River is sexy, smart, and sassy. I listened to the audio version which is narrated by Alex Kingston adding to the awesomeness. The writing style is meant to parody a 1930's gumshoe pulp, which works out quite well. This is a MUST READ for any Whovian especially if you are a River fan, but don’t expect too much Weeping Angel action or any appearances from The Doctor plus Ponds.

Do You like book The Angel's Kiss: A Melody Malone Mystery (2012)?

Full of cheeky goid humor. Doctor Who fans will like it, but it probably won't work for others.

A fun read for anyone who adores Doctor Who and particularly River Song.
