Laugh and Laugh some more

Revisado: 01-14-21

He took on phony Democrats in "Strip Tease". Hiaasen crosses the aisle for this one. At one point, I laughed so hard I almost fell off the treadmill. This has Smart woman, snooty women, gullible men, snakes and Skink.
What more could you want?

This normally great author sunk with this one. I like a book that finishes the story. This one doesn't

SNL to USS, What a Journey

Revisado: 11-15-17

The author narrates this book with a style and flavor like no one else could. Both Democrats and Republicans can enjoy the inside look at the US Senate and the people that make it go.

Morgan versus Morgan

Revisado: 09-27-17

As with the first private novel, #1suspect spins multiple mysteries at the same time. I find this keeps any one of them from dragging out too long.
Good listen.

Stone to Carr and Back

Revisado: 08-07-17

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

Yes
It is one of the two best Camel Club books (Devine Justice). Baldacci seems to get more comfortable with the depth of his characters.

What did you like best about this story?

Stone's quandaries. Is it loyalty, protection or dependence that drives his personal relationships'?

Have you listened to any of Ron McLarty and Orlagh Cassidy ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I liked it. Originally, I was somewhat wary of multiple narrators, not anymore.

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

I would have liked to but no chance.

Any additional comments?

If you like the Camel Club, you'll love this one.

Narration better than expected

Revisado: 06-22-17

Would you listen to The Collectors again? Why?

Well, now that I know how it ends, why would I?
It's a good book by a good author.

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

yes it did

Which scene was your favorite?

Caleb before and during his surprise interview with the police.

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

Yes
When Annabelle, against her own best interest decided to stay and work on the case

Any additional comments?

I was wary about purchasing this book because of the reviews that panned the multiple narrators. I had never listened to a multiple narration before and thought I would probably find it distracting. Actually, my experience was the opposite.

Narration ould be much better

Revisado: 04-17-17

Would you try another book from Andrew Britton and/or David Ledoux?

I've listened to all the Ryan Kealey series. Story wise this might not be the best but it's still pretty good. The narration left much to be desired.

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

Middle east settings have become so much the standard in this genre that there is little left to be educated on.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Wow! A lot.
Lack of inflection. Little distinction among characters and a somewhat sing/song cadence
Bring back Christopher Lane..

Did Threatcon Delta inspire you to do anything?

No

Any additional comments?

I think it would be a better read than listen.

The Border Crossing

Revisado: 07-16-16

Would you consider the audio edition of Ballistic to be better than the print version?

Possibly better because of Jay Snyder's narration.

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

Like all of the previous Gray Man novels, Peterson moves us from one harrowing action sequence to another. More than edge of the seat, standing and rooting for Gentry to find his way out of each impossible predicament.

What does Jay Snyder bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

accent and inflection give distinct differences to the characters.

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

When Eddie's sister tells him she is entering the convent.

Any additional comments?

As usual Peterson keeps us in the action from beginning to end.
