Honey West: Murder on Mars

Saucy and sexy PI Honey West is on the case when a slew of murders occurs on the set of a low-budget sci-fi film. As cast members are knocked off one by one, West must use her wits, charm, and a good strong fist to find out who is killing whom. A fun romping mixture of film noir and chick lit, this comic-turned-audio (based on the characters of G.G. Fickling) has lots of personality, but clocks in at about an hour. Just as listeners get to know and enjoy West's charm, the story is over and they're left wanting more. The performances of the full cast are at times campy, but that is charming and a perfect fit for the subject matter. For fans of comics and audiobooks, this production is definitely worth the listen%E2%80%94especially if you're looking for a light and entertaining story. (May)
