Horrible! A waste of my time, loved his previous work

Revisado: 08-26-18

I have really enjoyed th series and was thrilled to find this latest book but boy was getting this a mistake! A bunch of unconnected stories, tons of filler material (do I really care how their children played and teased each other?)...etc
It feels like the author was just trying to get something out and threw this together. I am going to ask for my credits back

What disappointed you about The Defiant: Grid Down?

The fact that you have to buy 2 more books to finish the story. I have been an Audible member for a number of years now and recently I have been noticing a significant trend towards shorter and shorter "books" that force you to eat up credits to get the whole story. Two recent examples are "The Defiant:Grid Down" and "Vagos, Mongols, and Outlaws". The first ebook mentioned is the worst offender, if you want to hear the whole story you have to purchase 3 books, burning up 20% of my annual allotment. At least the second book tells a whole story. There have been others over the last year that have struck me as a poor value given the length of the read.
As much as I enjoyed The Defiant, there is not way I am going to reward the author's and Audible's (Amazon) greed by shelling out two more credits for what should have been one.
If this trend continues I will look for an alternate source of audiobooks.

What did you like best about this story?

Well written and narrated

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Good story line and action, my issue is with the poor value proposition and the author's greed

I really , really tried to finish this book, I hate wasting the investment of time and money by not finishing a book but I could not bring myself to do it. It felt like throwing good $$ (and time!) after bad the story drags on forever and is a good replacment for Sominex! Don't waste your credits on it

Rambling..non coherent

Revisado: 05-24-06

Beautifully written with verse that makes thre lushness of the Dominican Republic come to life but the plot is horrible. Tough to follow, jumping all over the place, I was tempted just to abandon it a myriad of times but figured since I bought it I might as well listen to it. Could have been much better if the story did not meander so much..
