Funniest Drama!

Delicious audio drama expertly created with sound, absolutely incredible voice acting (especially historical figures and lead role) and insane writing! Serious laugh-out-loud moments for me. More, please!

Favorite book as a teen

Revisado: 01-18-22

This has long been my favorite book, since it spoke so well to my teen boy brain. Now, many years later, I have been married to my own Lorna Doone—a woman I met when she was young and whom I never considered until one day . . .

This is such a sweet tale where honesty, chivalry, and honor are exalted along with humility. Loved it again!

Real, raw, profound, hilarious, soup-affirming

Revisado: 09-23-21

What a great book. Such a fantastic story and well told. Love hearing it in Tyler’s voice (and all the little extras he adds for the audio version).

So many relatable scenes in his life story, even for a white guy who grew up under far different circumstances. Tyler’s story pulls you in and makes you not just have empathy for him but a real strong sense of comradeship and kinship with him. He’s a dude you want to meet. And as you’re examining his life, it makes you examine yours in the best of ways.

Highly highly recommended.

Scott Brick brings the mood to a great story

Revisado: 11-18-18

I read “Washington’s Spies” here on Audible, so I was impressed with the research Meltzer did to bring the Culper Ring to life in this story.

Smart writing full of good one-liners, intrigue, action, strong characters you can get behind, and a compelling storyline.

Difficult to follow story with strange lilting narration.

Revisado: 11-02-18

I get that a story may be told from various perspectives, but this one was just odd. It begins with the point of view of a like-able enough guy sent to straighten out a drug deal for his buddy in prison. Because of the strange way in which that first section of the book ends, the listener is less apt to buy into the next character’s point of view.

The constant addition of new somewhat important characters and the backstory needed on main characters to whose point of view we then switch muddies up the story enough to make it far less enjoyable and that much more confusing.

I thought at first that the narrator was reading in a funky, sing-song lilting way with strange upticks and emphases as part of the first character’s style and mood. Nope. Annoying through the whole book.

Unfortunately, this book soured me on both author and narrator.

Weird performance of great book

Revisado: 04-16-18

Fascinating, well-researched and fairly believable novel, but super-weird voice sounds like a fake accent halfway between New Mexico and Bostonian.

Well-researched and true to life account

Revisado: 03-25-18

Without sensationalizing or over-dramatizing this true story of a shooting and manhunt in the modern American West, Dan Schultz gives a detailed and very gripping account. This will keep your attention and leave you wanting to go down and start asking questions . . . for many different reasons.

A fascinating story that is told with enough flow and pacing to keep the listener engaged while providing enough background info to make it wholly believable. A no-nonsense reading by Arthur Murray adds grit and believability to this dynamic retelling of a crime and its aftermath.

Worth your time, especially if you like true crime stories, Wild West or survivalist narratives, or just like to take a peek behind the scenes of a crime docu-drama in action.

Delightful witty writing set in 6th century

Revisado: 03-21-18

If you’re new to Twain like me (not having read much if anything of his for years), you’ll love his quirky witticisms and round about way of exposing the reader to a humorous part of the tale he’s telling. He assumes the reader is smart and has a sense of humor as well, which makes you feel like you’re in on the joke rather than being told about it afterward.

The plot lis exactly as the title states and is this man’s own account of being part of King Arthur’s royal court as he recounts it to Mark Twain.

Get it for the classic that it is and enjoy it for the laughs.

Interesting view of “paradise”

Revisado: 01-29-18

Not by any means an adventure or action story, this mid-century parable of sorts is heavy on dialogue and utopian optimism mixed with shots at established modern and traditional religious and societal values.
