      • source: AudioFile Magazine
      • content: Marc Cashman and Van Draanen are back at it again as Dave--aka the Gecko--and his sidekick, Sticky--an actual gecko. Cashman clearly enjoys his role as narrator as he brings these stories and their characters to life. His pleasure is evident as he delivers the fast-paced yet easy-to-follow humor, antics, and adventures. Sticky's Spanish-laden accent sparkles with an additional fervor all will enjoy. In this fourth installment, the Gecko and Sticky find themselves in heaps of trouble when they intercept a package with a mysterious potion meant for the evil Damien Black. J.K.R.
