Summary
Bram Stoker Award-nominated author.
Need to hide something from the fae?
Got a tricky trans-dimensional delivery to make?
Need a big ball of magic that can destroy the world?
Call Black Box, Inc.
The world as we know it is gone. Since the "extradimensional happening", every creature, monster, and fairy tale goblin has turned Asheville, North Carolina, into their personal playground. An uneasy truce exists between the races, but Chase Lawter’s unique ability puts him squarely in the crosshairs of treachery, feuds, and monsters looking to make a buck on black market goods. Chase is the only known being who can pull material from between dimensions and shape it into whatever he likes - like boxes. Like boxes in which folks hide smoking guns and severed heads. Only Chase can hide the boxes, and only Chase can recover them from the Dim. All for a tidy sum, of course.
His crack team - a yeti, a zombie, and a fae-trained assassin - have his back. What could possibly go wrong?
Jake Bible, Bram Stoker Award-nominated novelist and author of the best-selling Z-Burbia series, short story writer, independent screenwriter, podcaster, and inventor of the drabble novel, has entertained thousands with his horror and sci/fi tales. He reaches audiences of all ages with his uncanny ability to write a wide range of characters and genres.

All the lawyers were banshees.
Chase, top man in a team of equals, has a very clever trick. He can form a box, a black box the right size to take anything, and having filled it, he folds it away where it cannot be seen, found or unlocked again by anyone but him. A surprisingly useful service, don't you think? But dangerous when clients were just a teeny bit unreliable.
Another imaginative creation from Jake Bible, filled with crazy people and even more seriously crazy situations. Read, as always, with panache by J.Scott Bennett, the story flies into life with his narration, well paced and elegant intonation. Great team work of author and narrator.
A fun read for anyone who enjoys a taste of the ridiculous wrapped up in an adventure. Certainly better than a severed head - that always ruins a good meal.

Wrong narrator (and wrong book as it happens)
SO, I realised today that I had actually listened to book two, NOT Black Box Inc. So, since I already had it in my library, I listened to it today, because .. lockdown .. And I rather enjoyed it, I still think it's the wrong narrator for the book but he is 'growing' on me and just for laughs, I am keeping my original review here :
This is an ok story with the wrong narrrator, he is not a bad narrator but he sounds rather pompous and foppish in direct contrast to the story.
The story is ok, not great, not bad, although it may be better if narrated by a more interesting and less daft sounding narrator, it has it's humour, it has it's intrigue but it does NOT have my interest and I shall not be bothering with book two.
