Historia
For a young lawyer on the make, it was an offer Mitch McDeere couldn’t refuse: a position at a law firm where the bucks, billable hours, and benefits are over the top. It’s a dream job for an up-and-comer—if he can overlook the uneasy feeling he gets at the office. Then an FBI investigation into the firm’s connections to the Mafia plunges the straight and narrow attorney into a nightmare of terror and intrigue. With no choice but to pit his wits, ethics, and legal skills against the firm’s deadly secrets—if he hopes to stay alive…

Historia
Al MacBharrais is both blessed and cursed. He is blessed with an extraordinary white moustache, an appreciation for craft cocktails - and a most unique magical talent. He can cast spells with magically enchanted ink and he uses his gifts to protect our world from rogue minions of various pantheons, especially the Fae.

Great story teller

What I love about Kevin H is EVERYTHING. He writes with humor, intelligence, wonderful characters, sneaky references to our modern foibles, and draws worlds that resonate with all parts i am a female senior but still appreciate the humor of the 16 yr old male. .The Iron Druid is still my first love (or is it really Oberon?) but I haven't read a book or story yet I haven't loved. Or heard. The Audible with Lucky Luke is not to be missed.

Non stop action. Interesting plot and enjoyed the narration. Kept the drama without overdoing the tone.

Fascinating Book
Revisado: 07-09-15
Love how it makes you think about the beginnings of human life. And to think about all the things learned and how our thoughts and beliefs are impacted by our surroundings. This was a book that I hated to stop listening to, and finished all too fast. Ready for next in series now.

Historia
Being sent home to investigate a rash of unusual events at the Grand Canyon is a mission Carter Mockta would really like to avoid. He's worked long and hard to forget his past and the reasons why he first joined the Omega Group. Unfortunately, missing people, tourists losing time, and unexplained auras are problems that can't be ignored. The Grand Canyon holds many secrets, but one of them is far more sinister than anyone knows.

Really pleasantly Surprised
Revisado: 02-02-13
What made the experience of listening to The Witness the most enjoyable?
I think of Nora Roberts as a sappy romance novelist. Don't know where I got that idea but loved this book. Yes the heroine did find love but it was really an exciting story of a really strong amazing teen who grew into an incredible woman beating the odds of being killed. The whole thing was so enjoyable it cost me sleep because I often play audio books for 10-15 minutes after I go to bed. But kept restarting this cause couldn't wait to hear more. I will have to try more by this author to see if I have been missing out.
What other book might you compare The Witness to and why?
Hmmm nothing comes to mind. It was unique to me
What about Julia Whelan’s performance did you like?
Expressive but not over the top dramatization
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
As I said above, I easily could have and would enjoyed doing so. So yes to "wanted to"
Any additional comments?
Well worth it. And interesting enough I'm sure I will listen to it again in the future. Definitely a keeper.

Why we think it’s a great listen: An all-time Audible favorite that mixes historic fiction, adventure, and romance with one of the most fascinating literary devices: time travel. Outlander introduces an exhilarating world of heroism and breathtaking thrills as one woman is torn between past and present, passion and love. In 1945, former combat nurse Claire Randall returns from World War II and joins her husband for a second honeymoon. But their blissful reunion is shattered....

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Ummm. Since the book was highly recommended by friends when first came out, obviously many love it. Not entirely my cup of tea, but undoubtedly those that love historical romances would enjoy the recording

Is there anything you would change about this book?
Not for what it was good for. An interesting enough, pleasant listen, good used for a bedtime story for adults.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
It would have changed the feel and character and not do it a service
Was In the Company of Cheerful Ladies worth the listening time?
Yes if used for a relaxing interlude/
