Clear perspective and useful ideas

Revisado: 06-21-17

If you could sum up Igniting the Invisible Tribe in three words, what would they be?

Inciteful, clear perspective.

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

No because I wanted to consider the ideas provided in application to my own work style. Then I would return to learn more in a subsequent listen. The book provides a current, realistic view of work teams and environments.

Any additional comments?

The narration was very well done! I appreciated the easy cadence with emphasis placed appropriately on certain words or phrases. I give high marks when my mind no longer notices the narration but becomes lost in the story or ideas!

An enjoyable detective story!

Revisado: 09-03-13

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

Yes, it has well developed characters,

What did you like best about this story?

I have not listened to or read many crime or detective books. My favorite fiction book prior to this has been Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code. The story did not reveal "who dunno it"early on, if indeed there was a culprit, but kept me guessing until the climactic end when the puzzle pieces were woven together very well. I particularly liked the various characters in the story, the fashion industry environment and the way the individual character stories all came together satisfactorily without breaking credibility.

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

No, I have not listened to other books performed by Mr. Glenister.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I did not have an extreme reaction. I commonly listen to books while I work out on the exercycle in the health center. I did laugh out loud a number of times. As the climax of the story came together I found myself on aux in 'driveway moments" and on earbuds while working around the house because I abandoned my routine as I "could not put it down".

Any additional comments?

I hope J. K. Rowling plans a second book with Cormoran Strike to continue with his detective work! Fun that the entire book is written sprinkled with current British slang and culture.

Where does Stiff rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

top 5

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

I have not heard her other performances but would be glad to listen to another.

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

No some of the subject matter needs a break now and then.

Any additional comments?

A fascinating subject that is deftly handled both in writing and performance. I bought the book in part because it was on sale and in part because it had good reviews. I agree with the reviews. Well done!

Fascinating with richly developed characters

Would you consider the audio edition of A Game of Thrones to be better than the print version?

I did not read the print but the performance brought the entire book to life for me.

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

No but I hope that he is the performer on all of the books since I plan to complete listening to every one.

Any additional comments?

A fascinating book. I'm glad a friend recommended it. I listened 3 times to the first chapter to engage my mind around the names and the crucial details and by the 2nd Chapter I was hooked into an excellent book.

Psycho

Revisado: 08-18-12

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Well spent? no, because I thought the ending was just crappy. I did not like these people and I thought the f-bombs were distracting.

Would you ever listen to anything by Gillian Flynn again?

Sure

Which character – as performed by Julia Whelan and Kirby Heyborne – was your favorite?

"Go" because she seemed the most real

Do you think Gone Girl needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No!

Any additional comments?

Wow. was disappointed that I just did not like these people. From about the middle of the book until the end I could not stop listening but the ending just made me nauseous. Both of the main characters evolved into just sick people. And they get away with it?! Yuck
