Brilliant and true to life

Revisado: 02-12-18

Would you consider the audio edition of The Ryder Quartet to be better than the print version?

Both are good. They were gripping and enjoyable to listen to and most of all they reflect the reality around this place where I live.

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

The characters are entertainingly real and believable, even the criminals: they are funny when drunk, evil when sober, and dangerous all the time. The cops are funny and witty and tease each other mercilessly while going after the bad guys when duty calls. The whole set of stories is very entertaining and the narration is particularly good. The reader has a mysterious voice and is always clear and precise.

Have you listened to any of Ian Patrick’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, none so far.

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

There are a couple of gruesome murders but generally it was a pleasure to listen to.

Any additional comments?

These books are true to life and brilliant to listen to in the car or in the bath (which is where I spent most of my time with them), although I could have done with no swearing (but then I suppose that’s what cops and robbers do in real life), even though it was sparingly used. But what a thrill it was to listen to all of these books one after another.
