Another narrator please!

Revisado: 02-13-21

I love Morse stories on tv so when I found the books i was thrilled but couldn’t listen much, I found the narrator unbearable, it’s so sad I will not be able to listen to any of Morse’s adventures with that narrator

Not really a Bosch story

Revisado: 08-26-19

It really is a McCalab story featuring Harry Bosch, but enjoyable and with some action; the solution came too quickly to what I’m used to with Harry Bosch, not very complicated

Birds and lists

Revisado: 06-16-17

I love birding, I discovered this activity a year ago so I thought this book would be fun or interesting but neither, it is very boring; too many lists, as if to fill space and pseudo intellectual references.

Interesting topic poorly written

Revisado: 12-15-15

When I read the summary I wanted to listen right away but despite a promising topic, the way it is written and the information chosen was very disappointing; boring at times, I even stopped listening, read another book and then returned not to leave unfinished.

Not Le Carré

Not my thing

The Fountainhead...

Would you listen to another book narrated by Tanya Eby?

No

It moves so slow!!!!

Revisado: 10-13-13

Would you try another book from George R. R. Martin and/or Roy Dotrice?

I would like to find out what happens to the main characters of the series but if it continues to drag the way it does maybe I will only read the summaries in wikipedia; Roy Dotrice has not been to my liking since the first book, but I found the story interesting so I kept going, but his last deliver it's the worst of the four books I have listened to, I decided to skip book 4 due to the reviews of other members and glad I did, because I agree with their opinion for this book.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

I wish the story would move, so much description of dressses or food but no action.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Roy Dotrice?

Simon Vance

Do you think A Dance with Dragons needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

The women's voices are horrible, specially Deanerys sounds like a low born old woman nothing to do with "the most beautiful" queen in the whole world.

Any additional comments?

This book did need a lot of editing or maybe an abridge version would be much better avoiding needless descriptions or taking so much time introducing a new minor character instead of giving more time to the main characters, I want more of Jamie, Arya, only Jon and Tyrion get somewhere and Daenerys was such a smash in the previous books and now just sits and makes terrible decisions, a bit disappointing.

Enjoyable

Revisado: 08-23-12

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

Yes, very entertaining, characters to care about.

What other book might you compare The Yard to and why?

The Sherlock Holmes series, about the same period, crime suspense, investigation.

What does Toby Leonard Moore bring to the story that you wouldn???t experience if you just read the book?

Giving voice to the different characters makes you care more for them

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Just the final chapters

Good sequel, can't wait for the third book

Revisado: 03-04-11

I loved The Strain, I listened to it several times, so I was waiting for this realease; I liked a lot but I still prefer the first book, I'm looking forward for the third installment and find out how Dr. Goodweather copes with the challenge.
I miss Ron Perlman,a work by Del Toro is not complete without him.

My first Murakami experience

Revisado: 03-04-11

I loved the book, I did not know what to expect so it was a wonderful surprise, never boring always intriguing and very interesting; loved the characters. I already bought Kafka on the Shore and Norwegian Wood, can't wait to start listening.
