Summary

STOP PRESS! The Stranger Times wins the 2023 British Fantasy Award for Best Audio Work!

Some comebacks can be murder . . .

Stella is enjoying life as an almost student, or at least she is until a man falls from the sky right in front of her, leaving a big old hole in the pavement for Manchester Council to fill. The obvious question of how he ended up in the sky in the first place has no obvious answers, which is where The Stranger Times come in. This isn't just the hunt for another story though. Dark powers think Stella might have been involved and the only way she and the team can prove her innocence is to find out what the hell is really going on. What have dodgy gear, disturbed graves and a decommissioned rock star got to do with all this?

Vincent Banecroft has problems of his own in the form of a tall, dark but-definitely-not-handsome man dressed like a one-man funeral who has been sent to make the paper's editor atone for his sins. Once he finds out exactly what that entails, Banecroft is not keen. Being banished to a Hellscape for all eternity looks like being no fun at all, not least because he has that pale Irish skin that burns really easily . . .

All that plus territorial ghouls, homicidal felines, eternal (and seemingly unstoppable) gnomes and a celebrity 'Who's Who' that'd put a royal wedding to shame, and you're looking at a wild few days for The Stranger Times.

Relight My Fire is the fourth book in the acclaimed and brilliantly funny Stranger Times series.

Well worth the wait!

I’ve been waiting with bated breath for book 4 - it didn’t disappoint.
A ghoul, fabulous sisters and let’s just say ‘a number of recognisable names’….. what’s not to love?!
Another clever plot line from the genius white haired Irishman, featuring new characters and old favourites, great character development, belly laughs, fabulous silliness and utter escapism into the weird and wonderful world of The Stranger Times. Just brilliant!
I have each of the books in the series on Kindle and Audible. I must say, the narrator and author team are a match made in heaven - a real winning combo.
I was excited to hear that there will be at least another three books in the series and can’t wait for the next instalment….. though I suppose I’ll have to. Sigh….

I have loved this world and it's characters since book one, and it has only gotten stronger as the various characters personality evolved.

So much fun

Part 4 is the best so far and Brendan's narration deserves another reward.
Fantastic stuff and well worth a listen.

Great read

The trouble with starting a Caimh Mcdonell book is that you can’t put it down and once it’s finished you have to wait patiently for the next one! Great story and love the narrator’s voice!
Love Caimh’s sense of humor and imagination,

Favourite one yet...

Laughed out loud. Very good story in the series, enjoying the weaving together of characters and story lines. Narration is fabulous.
