Absolutely brilliant

A powerful story of a man, his family and his province. Excellent narration. A tale that makes you cry and laugh sometimes at the same time.

One of Blake’s best.

Thoroughly enjoyed the story. Almost impossible to stop listening to Keeble’s narration. Plus incredible humour despite the subject matter

5 star rating for Louise Penny & R Bathurst

Revisado: 09-06-15

My sole intention for writing this comment, something I haven't done in a long time is to counter the unfair negative criticism fired at Robert Bathurst. Yes, this is another brilliant Gamache novel. I have read all the others. And I thoroughly enjoyed Ralph Cosham's performances. I was totally shocked to hear of his death last year.
So we have another person, Robert Bathurst voice acting the characters and story. Do we expect Bathurst to be Cosham? Do we expect his performance to be identical? .
I miss Cosham but I am ready to move on. I thoroughly enjoy Robert Bathurst. Louise Penny and co made a great choice. I hope he continues to perform other Penny novels.

This is JLB's best!

I am a big fan of Dave Robicheaux and I thought that James Lee Burke couldn't surpass this series. I was wrong! The "Wayfaring Stranger" is brilliant, in fact one of the best if not the best book I have ever read or listened to. A excellent summary of this novel can be found on James Lee Burke.com. The description on this site "A sprawling thriller drenched with atmosphere and intrigue", however, does not do justice to the splendor of this book. The depth of the characters both good and evil, the vivid depiction of the world at that time, Burke's relentless attack on evil and evildoers and finally Will Patton's masterful narration will leave you spellbound and the tale of Rosita and Weldon and their love that would not, could not, die will stay with you for weeks to come.
This book stands tall among the classics!

Utterly brilliant

Revisado: 02-03-14

I love Adrian's Sean Duffy. What a story about the Troubles of Northern Ireland and specifically the fascinating tale of John DeLorean's car manufacturing plant just outside of Belfast. Although the story takes place during the dark days of Northern Ireland,it abounds with tales of love and heartbreak as well as a good dose of Irish humor..
The book starts with a torso in a suitcase and from there it takes Duffy and his police mates McCrabbon (Crabby) and McBride on a hunt that leads them to an end no one, including the reader, expects.
I can't wait for Book3. This is McKinty at his best.

Hooked on this series

Revisado: 01-19-14

I mentioned in earlier reviews of the two Anne Emery novels how I had stumbled upon this author and started my series experience by listening to Book 5 and then going back to the beginning and reading #1. I am now on #3 after completing The Obit. I must admit that I am surprised that Audible listeners only gave this mystery a 3.8 rating. The story takes place in New York and once again Anne Emery spins a fascinating yarn which makes the listener want to keep going.
First of all I want to underline that Christian Rummel is utterly incredible here. I liked him in the other two books but in The Obit the accents of New York are quite cleverly and convincingly portrayed. Further there seems to be more important secondary characters so Rummel has to cover a wide range of voices.
The second point which i failed to state an earlier review is the humor, especially the Irish humor. Despite the story being about murder, the involvement of the IRA and Father's Burke's father being a murder suspect, there are many funny scenes, scenes when I actually laughed out loud.
I enjoyed this mystery and am presently enjoying The Barrington Street Blues (great title).
Well worth the credits
