Not my fav Reacher story

Revisado: 05-02-19

It’s nice to have another Reacher story to read. This one is the same as the rest, although, we get a little background info on Reacher’s family.

I miss Dick Hill. Narrator doesn’t differentiate between characters very much. Sometimes it’s tricky to keep track of dialogue.

My fav Chuck Hogan novel

Revisado: 07-28-18

An outstanding story. All the best elements of a heist novel with realistic human personal relationship drama as well.

Narrator is excellent with a listenable voice and great inflection. Only issue was the part time Boston accent. Best choice for this book would’ve been one of the Wahlbergs, I think.

Didn’t realize it was abridged.

Why do that to a book? Doesn’t make sense to me. Other than that, it’s a fascinating look inside the Baltimore homicide unit from the creator of The Wire.

A MUST for fans

Revisado: 03-11-18

“There are two types of people in this world. Those that have seen The Wire and those that haven’t.”

Terrific companion piece to one of the greatest shows of all time. Amazing to hear the creators, writers, actors, and crew discuss the impact of this show on them and society at large.

At first. I was disappointed that the actors from the show weren’t narrating. However, I got over that quickly. The performance is excellent.

Elvis & Joe back at it

Revisado: 01-05-18

I’m a big fan of the Elvis Cole novels. The latest installment doesn’t disappoint as we follow Cole in a deadly race to solve a mystery.

Luke Daniels does a good job. His portrayal of Pike is not my favorite, but, it’s certainly not bad. Daniels seems to have a good handle on the character and motivation of Cole as a PI.

Finally, no Elvis Cole mystery would be complete without a detailed description of food preparation. Veal chops and eggplant this time. Sounds delicious. 😊👍🏻

Best one yet

Revisado: 11-30-17

If you’ve read the entire series, this book is for you. Classic mystery storytelling with stores that intertwine events of the distant past and the present day of our heroes.

The next book will likely be the last in the series. I’m sure Johnson will pen a fitting final installment of this fine series.

Guidall is the BEST narrator in the business.

Unique storytelling

Revisado: 11-07-17

An unconventional mystery told in a sprawling narrative that meanders from person to person, place to place, and character to character. Better for prolonged listening as I found it difficult to keep my place in the story with frequent stops and restarts. I believe the author is the narrator and the performance is exquisite and heartfelt. Side note: there is music mixed in at certain beacon points in the book. Not my thing - I don’t feel like that ever adds to the story.

Excellent edition to the series

Revisado: 01-04-17

Craig Johnson provides more of the aging, sarcastic, and high plains punching bag sheriff Walt Longmire in this welcome addition to the Longmire series. In this story we are treated to an interesting mystery while at the same time more development of the long arc story lines of sheriff Longmire, Vic, and other characters.

As always, Guidall's narration is the BEST IN THE BUSINESS.

Slow moving

Revisado: 02-12-16

Story elements unfold very slowly. Actually got better near the end, after the climax, when it was almost over.

Performance note: Music almost RUINED an excellent narration from Eli Wallach. DO NOT put music in audiobooks. Please.
