A Wild Ride

Revisado: 09-11-20 El oyente recibió este título gratis

This high action detective story will keep you entertained. Have some patients with the beginning where the storyline dragged and the dialog seemed forced. Also, the reader seemed a little too enthusiastic. However, all aspects of the story quickly mesh into an imaginative, exciting story.

High Action Mystery

Revisado: 07-23-20 El oyente recibió este título gratis

If you enjoy Philip Marlowe, Sam Spade, and Nathan Heller, then you will like Nick Bancroft. Keep the pages turning as he bobs, weaves, and spins through vicious dogs, murderous villains, and erotic damsels in distress. All the while, he never takes his eye off the prize -- the mystery of "the club" which controls the town.

The narration is excellent.

Gritty Western

Revisado: 07-16-20 El oyente recibió este título gratis

An adventure full of grit and gun play from the western frontier. Fast paced and full of colorful characters. However, I found the non-stop daisy chain of metaphors to be smoke obscuring the plot like a morning fog on the meadow hides the deer from the hunter's eyes.

Space pirates - interplanetary war - disrupters -- everything you want from a space adventure from the Golden Age of Science Fiction. Oh, did I mention the romance triangle?

Three short stories

Revisado: 07-04-20 El oyente recibió este título gratis

Each story is a standalone read, but they share some common themes. While not Louis L'Amour's best work, these are good reads for aficionados.

The narration is excellent.

Excellent story for aroadtrip

Any additional comments?

This is a delightful romping adventure. If you know who Stephanie Plumb is, and if you wish she was more violent and more erotic, then you will like Donna Stone. This heroine is a single mother working as an assassin. Needless to say, she typically lures her victims in with her body. The sexy scenes are hot enough that you will be glad that you dropped your daughter off before you started the book, but not so hot that you feel the need to hide the book under that mattress. The plot is predictable, but the story is told in a face-paced, exciting tone. The reader, Melissa Moran, provides a perfect performance as she brings the story to life. I just don’t know how I would have made that last 100 miles without Josie Brown’s story. I will certainly buy the next one in the series when it is released.

Rather disappointed

Revisado: 09-03-15

Any additional comments?

I’ve enjoyed Caleb Carr’s writing before, but in this book he seemed to stretch a bit too far. In his zeal to match the writing style of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes series, Mr. Carr forgot to include a plot. This book is five hours of droning narrative with an hour and a half of simplistic mystery.

Simon Prebble remained consistent with his superb reading skill. The only reason that I listen to the entire book was because I was enjoying Mr. Prebble’s performance.

Not as good as the first two

Revisado: 08-14-14

Any additional comments?

This is the third book of the series and if you haven’t read the previous two you will have a tough time catching up. I bought this because I enjoyed the others and while it is an enjoyable read it is not as interesting/exciting as the previous two.
