Ann Patchett’s best!

Revisado: 01-15-25

I always say the best after every Ann Patchett book. Tom Hanks did a fabulous job on The Dutch House and Meryl Streep was even better with this book. The author is a wonderful story teller. No excess drama or sad endings…just a good story.

Simplistic dialogue and story

Revisado: 01-24-24

If you have ever listened to Louis L’Amore books, this storyline and narrator are similar. I like the latter but not really savvy like current espionage books.

George Guidall is the best!

Revisado: 11-28-23

Storyline lively if unlikely but George Guidall makes every Mitch Rapp tale believable. Glad the series has continued with Kyle Mills.

Great new series!

Revisado: 08-24-23

Just love the first in Duff series…different view of the private contractor world..as exciting as The Gray Man. Adam Gold did an excellent job with narration. Note to author…stay with this narrator and keep writing for this series.

Great first two books

Revisado: 06-17-23

Loved the first two in the series largely because of Christopher Lane's narration. The story line is slow and methodical but I like that in a murder mystery. Changing narrators for the third and fourth books so altered my listening experience, returned the audible book. I am sure there are contractural issues, availability etc but how can an author imagine changing such a distinctive voice for his story as was Christopher Lane. Might try reading if available in my library.

Excellent story and narration

Revisado: 05-05-23

I agree with another reviewer that none of the main characters were likable. The story, however, is a very interesting and occasionally thrilling part of American/British history from the 1600s. No wonder we separated from Britain! Not sure why it took another 100+ years.

Narrator cannot salvage

Revisado: 05-05-23

Julia Whelan is an excellent narrator but this book was too awful for her to salvage. The author has a “trope” that quickly becomes repetitive and predictable. I finished only because needed for a bookclub. Are authors now just aiming at women’s bookclubs offering one idea rather than developing characters and interesting storylines? This book seems to be popular so clearly I am in a minority.

Excellent narration

Revisado: 08-27-22

A good Dickens but did lose steam for the last third. The narration was so good carried a mediocre story line for that last part.

Sarah Molo poor narrator

Revisado: 01-08-22

My primary problem with this book is the female narrator and the female story. Was so annoying I skipped half of her chapters. RCBray could have done her chapters much better. Too bad after two good novels to have this one fail half the time largely because of the narrator.

Good police procedural set in Glacier Park

Revisado: 01-06-22

R C Bray, like George Guidall, can read anything and make riveting. Good listen for RCBray fans now that we can no longer hear his version of The Martian.
