One of Lee Child's best installments.

For me, Jack Reacher books are all about seeing my favorite elements repeated. This book includes them all. Kudos to the narrator; he sounds like Jack Reacher should sound.

The great Palidin on a noble quest

Revisado: 11-30-19

I love this series and this is one of my favorite installments. Without giving anything away , Paks faces some of her greatest challenges and other major characters have surprises to face. Awesome narration meets a great adventure story. This is recorded books at their best .

A very sweet love story

Revisado: 02-21-19

I did enjoy it although the book is a little bit more risqué than I prefer.

A nice, long "read!"

This one is primarily Justin's story. There are quite a few gently romantic story elements. It is very sweet .

One of my favorites. Exceptional narration.

Revisado: 12-17-16

This is a very sweet story. It's part adventure, part love story. Sharon Shinn is a gifted writer, capable of surprises even in such a familiar genre.

Great installment meets the perfect narrator!

Revisado: 10-13-16

This is the best episode of "In Death" that I have read in years. Robb has flushed out many characters who, until now, have been peripheral. We get to hear from and learn more about Peabody and some of the others . There is more of the other characters contributing directly to the police work.

Not my favorite, but a satisfying episode

What did you love best about Echoes of Betrayal?

I really enjoyed continuing the stories of the characters from the earlier editions.

What other book might you compare Echoes of Betrayal to and why?

They are like the others in the series, which I do recommend.

What does Jennifer Van Dyck bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I enjoy hearing the pacing of a narrator, although some of the personal names and place names weren't pronounced the way that I remembered them; it was a little distracting.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I like the good triumphs over evil moments.

Any additional comments?

No.

Unlistenable (Is that a word?)

Revisado: 10-02-13

What would have made Limits of Power better?

A different narrator would have made this better. I think probably any narrator, but maybe that's not true?

What other book might you compare Limits of Power to and why?

The only books that I know of that are similar to this one are the others in the series.

Would you be willing to try another one of Angela Dawe’s performances?

There may be genres in which she is competent, but this experience has left me so scarred and traumatized that I don't think I could listen to her again.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

I was offended by this performance. I can't believe that any professionals thought that any of this was appropriate to offer to Elizabeth Moon's fans or potential fans.

Any additional comments?

I am going to request a refund. If it's not too late for you, don't buy this version. Hopefully, our combined outrage will inspire someone to re-record this. Spare yourself!

How can #10 of a series feel so fresh?

Revisado: 05-01-13

What made the experience of listening to The Hard Way the most enjoyable?

I really like this narrator. Some of his inflections make me feel like he really knows this character.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

It's no secret that this is, at least in part, a kidnap story. But the question of whether the victims are going to survive was just one layer of the suspense. Reacher is locked in parallel struggles with his employer and with other characters. It is a seamless, multi-layered journey that is almost unbearably suspenseful.

What about Dick Hill’s performance did you like?

I think that he has a clear vision of Reacher and he is very gifted at creating voices for other characters.

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

Yes and no. It was great and I wanted to reach the resolution, but I couldn't stand the suspense. There were times when I had to turn it off and hide under my bed.

Any additional comments?

This is the best series that I have found since I discovered Robert Crais's Elvis Cole. Don't let the ill-considered Tom Cruise covers scare you away.

Brief and adequate

Would you listen to N is for Noose again? Why?

Full disclosure: I have read this one twice already. I might well read it again once enough time has passed and I have forgotten how mild and uncompelling this one is. It's not terrible.

If you’ve listened to books by Sue Grafton before, how does this one compare?

Definitely the bottom half of the group, but not the very worst.

Which scene was your favorite?

In this one, I would have to say Kinsey's early scenes with Deets.

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

No.

Any additional comments?

If this is your first try at reading Sue Grafton and you didn't love it, I would encourage you to try something else of her's. She has written many books that I have really loved.
