Surprised

Revisado: 04-13-22

I wasn’t certain that I was going to like this. I started it twice, but the narrator’s bugged me. But the third time it was not an issue for me (state of mind thing I’m certain) and once I started listening, I really did enjoy it. It didn’t end the way I wanted, but the ending made me wanting more of this character. Enjoyed it

JFK’s death made me a True Crime Follow

Revisado: 08-28-21

Preface, I was in the Chicago train station eating lunch when my mother cried out. She saw the shooting on the TV in the cafe. I was 6. Since that time I have read numerous True Crime stories, and this murder began that journey.

This murder has always been with me. I never believed in the pristine bullet, nor a single shooter. This gives cites to exhibits, testimony and other archived materials, where portions were ignored either during the initial investigation or during the Warren Commission inquiry. There were moments of repetitiveness, but not often enough for me to complain about. Enjoyed the author’s research.

Loved it thank you Jesse Watters

Revisado: 08-03-21

It is totally a Jesse Watters personality that comes through. I have thought enjoyed the book. A little disappointed with the mom text chapter, but moms are moms, and his responses respectful. I had no issue with the reader. I thought he captured Mr Watters perfectly with inflections. Thanks again

My most loved Stephen King Novel

Revisado: 03-19-21

Good and evil, no blood, no gory details. A pandemic, a struggle to survive, good wins over evil. Excellent reading. I have read it 3 times and listened once.

Interesting

Revisado: 05-15-15

I liked this trilogy. It had several twists I did not see coming. The ending I thought was a bit lame. I understand the logic of the way the ending was written, I just expected a little more. I look forward to reading more of Mr Crouch's works.

It's okay

Revisado: 02-25-15

It was fine. The narrator was just that. Kept it simple with no difference on the tone or voices. Not as enjoyable as some but still an okay book.

I purchased this on sale. It was well worth the $3.95 I paid for it. I thought the narration was good, and although depressing, the history was well written, and the book flowed well. I suggest reading it.

Another Awesome Read

Revisado: 11-28-12

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

It is a current situation story. Yes, it does take place some years ago, but the CIA is working with terrorism and therefore, it is a current subject. I moves along, with little to no lag. Kept me listening.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Lion?

the character Assad was very interesting in the way he performed his retribution on the Americans that killed his family. He was there without actually being noticed. I like that -- it made the story very compellilng

Which scene was your favorite?

Ted Nash getting shot. I thought he was a total ass.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

John Corey to the Rescue!

Any additional comments?

DeMille writes some very good books. I have read all of the John Corey books. Each one was very good. This one was one of my favorites because there was so much activity. It kept my mind jumping.

Good but

Revisado: 03-02-12

If you could sum up Catch Me in three words, what would they be?

Good, confusing, suspenseful

Who was your favorite character and why?

I am not sure I had a favorite. DD seemed a little whiney this go round So maybe Alex was may favorite

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

It would have made a big difference if the narrator would have distinguished the voices better. I would be listening to DD Warren and the narrator would transition to the other character with out missing a beat. I was unable to notice the switch until she said her name ir relived some part of the childhood memory, etc. It was frustrating to keep having to rewind and start again with the correct character in my head. I feel like listened to this book twice and sometimes three times just to get it right -- the first time through

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

I am uncertain

Any additional comments?

The story itself was a good twisted tale. Improvement from the narrator would have made the story much more enjoyable.
