Great True Crime Book

Revisado: 04-12-23

Well-written. Fabulous narrator. The book gives lots of detail and background, which I enjoy, but is still engaging. There is some interesting history provided of societal trends impacting the case and the context. Solid true crime book. Enjoyed it thoroughly.

Good Narrator and Compelling Narrative

Revisado: 03-27-21

I am not sure what is with all the negative reviews about the narrator. Narration was high quality. Good information, family background, and flow of narrative. Some areas could have used more depth and details. Overall, good true crime.

Beautiful, Vivid Writing and Great Narration

Revisado: 01-09-21

The writing is beautiful and descriptive. Draws you into the feel and experience of the prairie. This story is haunting and heart wrenching. Getting to know the family members is moving. The narration is icing on the cake.

Incredible Story

Revisado: 11-02-20

Enthralling, mind baffling story. The narration is good. Level of detail and how the story is woven together with twists and turns keeps it interesting all the way through.

Not detailed

Revisado: 08-12-20

Lots of short stories with very little detail. If you just want quick overviews of cases, this is for you.

I laughed. I cried. I wished there was more.

Revisado: 03-22-20

The stories were compelling. Most of his life tidbits were highly relatable and about “normal” feelings and occurrences but with a slant of humor that makes them interesting and life lessons that make them inspiring. I could have listened to Adam Wade tell stories about his life for hours and hours more. Please write and record another book, Adam Wade!

Interesting all the way through

Revisado: 01-12-20

The only complaint I have is that wanted more. The narrative flowed well seamlessly adding in detail and backstory. There were no lulls, no parts that dragged. I love lots of intricate detail, and I could have used more in this book. However, a good amount of detail about the backgrounds of all the main players and their actions was present.

This narrator has grown on me over time. I used to think her voice carried too much tension. Now I appreciate more her inflection and seriousness that her reading lends to a serious topic.

Wish there was more

Revisado: 12-28-19

Wonderful detail. Thus book was so interesting and nicely written. My favorite narrator read the book, which was a huge bonus, but the writing speaks for itself. I learned so much.

A bit dry

Revisado: 12-15-19

Some interesting parts but a bit dry. I like details and in depth information and even though this is long I feel like it doesn’t go deep enough. A lot of information is repeated in different lectures (I don’t want to hear one more time about the role of Buffalo Bill and his performances on shaping the myth of the American west or I will scream.). The flow is not great and topics are not well organized. Instead of topics flowing into one another with new information given and information related but previously covered glossed over, the old information is covered again. Instead of one flowing course, it seems more of a collection of individual lectures or essays.

So funny.

Revisado: 12-06-19

I laughed out loud by myself many times while listening to this book. I even laughed until I cried during one part. It makes it that much better to hear the book read in Matt’s expressive and irreverent voice. The stories he tells about his life are interesting and flow well.
