Life After Nero Wolfe

Revisado: 02-09-22

Warning!! Spoilers!! Let me just say from the beginning, I really enjoyed this story. It kind of drew me in without my even realizing I was 1/4 through the story. The narration reminded me of Jack Webb narrating Dragnet stories. I was a little sad about the changes in relationships, but everyone grows and changes, even Archie & Lily. I’m glad Fritz was able to find someone and Saul was able to move on and start a new life with a new love.

The storyline was easy to follow and get lost in. So many times I found myself thinking about how this new telling would fit into the real world events of the 1970’s.

I’ll be on the lookout for more of Sandy Lerner’s Archie Goodwin adventures.

Although this recording is shorter than the regular length books, it was quite enjoyable. Great background for the two main characters.

Love-able boozer, good detective .

Bill Nighy is wonderful as Charles Paris. The dramatization brings Charles' world to life for a listen that is just as good the fourth time as it was the first.

I wish the entire Charles Paris mysteries were dramatized. Can't beat it !

Good Thief and good book

Revisado: 04-19-12

Would you listen to The Good Thief's Guide to Vegas again? Why?

I would definitely listen to this book again.... It's an easy listen and the narration is perfect.

What did you like best about this story?

I like the main character's perseverance. He just never gives up on his writing or his "side" occupation. His personality moves the story forward. Each city is a supporting character to Charlie.

What about Simon Vance???s performance did you like?

Simon Vance has a great voice for this character.... not too stuffy, not too sophisticated. He sounds like a witty friend. His voice for female characters is also very good. The female voices do not sound helpless but rather they compliment the main character well.

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

The "real" guidebook to where you want to go.

Any additional comments?

When are the next books coming out? I can't wait. My husband and I enjoy this series so much.

Would you listen to The Pillars of the Earth again? Why?

I would definitely listen to this book again. The first few paragraphs grabbed me and pulled me into the story. I started to care about the characters and what was happening to them. In my opinion, this is the mark of a great story.

What about John Lee???s performance did you like?

Another thing that a great book into a great audiobook is the narration.... and John Lee's performance is excellent! His portrayal of each character helps me as the reader to visualize them; to give life to the entire story.

Any additional comments?

I definitely recommend this audiobook!
