Smooth & Easy

Revisado: 07-14-16

Mr Mosley is the lead author of modern detective dare I say noir writing. His character Easy Rawlins is the smoothest operator in genre fiction. In CJ Charcoal Joe Mr Mosley draws in another of his famous characters Fearless Jones. And make sure you stay on the right side of these two! Fearless and Easy together solve their way past all sorts of tough aggressive strong arms whose sole purpose is to destroy them. This last Easy Rawlins mystery, is the fourteenth in the fabulous series and his brilliantly narrated by Lucian Msamati. But make sure you listen to earlier books narrated by Michael Boatman too.

Wishful Thinking/Outrageous Premise

Revisado: 07-06-16

Mr Robert Wilson presents another amazing novel with Charles Boxer as the flawed protagonist. It's suspenseful. It's different. It's bound to impact on a huge number of readers and create changes in conservative thinking patterns.

Great writing, but beware visceral violence

Revisado: 06-06-16

Mo Hayder is a considered detailed and really quite amazing genre writer. But in my view her stories are extremely violent, dark, disturbing and viscerally distressing. Not unlike JK Rowling's descriptions in The Silk Worm where the violence is alarming troubling and upsetting.

Vigilantes in London

Revisado: 05-20-16

Tony Parson's writing has an ease in its reading/listening that makes you want to stay with this story until the very end; and then expect to turn over to the next chapter as if there is more. It'll need patience to wait for his next book.

Smooth and Fascinating

Revisado: 07-12-15

Another great read from Walter Mosley. Leonid McGill is as smooth as ever in his roles as father, lover, agent and killer. Mr Mosley is a fabulous author and story teller. A small point that I miss in the Leonid McGill series as compared to Easy Rawlins is the historical perspectives Mr Mosley regularly included.

Excellent Spy Novel

Revisado: 03-20-15

An excellent spy novel that reminds me of Graeme Green. 'Double- crossing' spys that assassinate friends and foes alike, abound in this quite pro-British novel.

Not so Sweet Revenge

Revisado: 03-15-15

This is the second Ben Cheetham novel I've listened to, and it's a tighter faster and more consistent novel. The story line is ably supported by Nigel Carrington an excellent narrator. The focus of this novel is Revenge to which the author adds some food for thought with two characters on opposite sides of the argument.

Potential Nemesis

Revisado: 03-11-15

This book didn't create an excitement in listening for me. Although the main character has great potential to become a stalwart nemesis.
I felt the direction of the narrator was to dramatic like a Die Hard movie, when it could have gone for a cooler, darker style.

Neat Paced Spy Novel

Revisado: 03-11-15

First in a series of three so far. I came to this novel after reading the third Dirty Little Secret, which was much better. Without criticising the narrator too much so is Colin Mace's reading in the later novel. The writing gets better in the third. Interested now to listen to the second.
