A very slow beginning and poor recording

Revisado: 12-19-24

I hope this is the slow base that needed to be created for the future novels, and the rest are a bit faster pace
I will say that even when the audio is turned all of the way up it is difficult to hear if outside noise is loud (bad traffic, airport conversations, etc.) and I found that frustrating. I think someone needs to remaster the audio recording to make a clearer, stronger version. This was the first koontz book I have listened to with this problem.

Narrator Whispers for Joyce’s Voice…Difficult to Hear

Revisado: 10-21-24

I realized that it was a new narrator for this series and she did well for the majority of characters but when she was voicing Joyce (who has quite a large part with her diary entries) the narrator whispers making it very difficult to hear on the train, or even in the car. It is very frustrating and I can’t believe that the publisher didn’t have a quality assurance team to check the sound before it was released.
I actually ended up buying the ebook version to finish the story. I won’t get the next audiobook in the series.

Not the best in the series but enjoyable

Revisado: 08-18-24

This entry in the long running series was a bit off the mark for me. There was a lot of time spent getting to know the characters and when the murder finally happens (past the halfway point in the book) it seems to be solved very quickly.
The narrator is once again amazing and brings life to the characters.

Very wordy without saying much

Revisado: 03-10-24

Every few books Dean Koontz puts out a book that seems to be more about the flowery language that can be used than telling an actual story. This is one of those books…where there are more adjectives than action scenes.

I listened for a couple of hours and was so frustrated with the slow pace I just stopped and jumped to the last chapter (something that I never do).

This book is a hard pass, not his best and sadly one of his worst.

The best mystery ever written

Revisado: 12-12-23

Wonderful narration and complex murders make this Agatha Christie’s best book. I cannot compliment the narrator enough for the number of characters he creates so wonderfully.

Great Narrators Elevate this Story

Revisado: 12-07-23

I am a fan of both narrators and bought this during the recent site wide sale. A sweet story with great voice talent

It was okay

Revisado: 11-28-23

I wanted it to be more than it was. I don’t find the characters that believable. But it wasn’t the worst thing I have ever listened to.

Wanted to Love it …..

Revisado: 10-03-23

I loved all of the author’s previous books but this one just didn’t make the cut. I didn’t believe the characters or their issues. It was like they were 16 and not 26. It was also long and tended to ramble on. Cooper North was an amazing narrator (as he was on her other books).

The worst narrator I have ever listened to

Revisado: 11-09-22

Let me start by saying I am usually a huge fan of SE Harmon’s books. The writing has sass and sarcasm and makes me laugh even during tense moments. But this narrator was so dull and un-energetic that every line just laid there … the monotone delivery was annoying and the other characters were similar in voices. What a huge disappointment. I will read the next book on kindle instead of listening to it, but SE please don’t use this narrator again.

Don’t waste your money or credits on this book.

A good story … just needs better recording equip

Revisado: 06-29-22

This was the start of a good series. The characters were well developed and strong and the story was well told, well plotted and enjoyable with all of the expected moments of love and angst.
That being said I hope the next one has a better audio studio and recording equipment … there were times when it sounded like the narrator - who did a great job - was recording on a cell phone.
I will get the next book in the series.
