I love every story here, all held together by the main one.

Revisado: 11-04-24

Another great book by Julia Alvarez. I’m undecided if this or “The Time of the Butterflies” is the best, but both are amazing, and in my opinion, her best.

Nice characters

Revisado: 02-03-24

I have already listen for four of five of the series, I am enjoying it. I like the Kendra series better.
Also, not sure if I will keep going with the series, they should already know about how easy is to kidnap them, and how much Kara gets taken. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Love the story.

Revisado: 08-26-23

I like her style. I am sad that her characters’ stories don't go for longer than one book.

Enjoyable

Revisado: 05-05-23

I have been en young this series. I got to listen to the whole book from beginning until no in the last few days.
Is light and easy reading, with a touch of fun.
I was a little frustrated that from the last book to this Paloma disappear with no explanation.
🤷🏻‍♀️

Very Lippmann

Revisado: 03-27-23

It is a nice Lippmann Style book. Lots of twist, but a good arch for most characters.
The mix of the two readers was not always smooth. I would have prefer only one.

Witty as expected

I love it when they make me laugh like that. Really enjoyable. Also, this is the best reader of Nero wolf and Archie among all.

Another good book for the series

Revisado: 01-05-23

I like the series. It is an easy reading/listening. You can enjoy it and get into the story and the characters very quickly.
Sometimes it gives you a little too many clues before time, but o really enjoy the series anyway.

Delicious familiar place

Revisado: 11-13-22

It’s always a pleasure when a new Scarpeta novel arrives. As usual they don’t disappoint.

Even though the rhythm, the peak and the resolution are familiar, it always great to find them again. As I have read them all, but not always on order, last year I went back and listened to all of them from beginning to end. I have been waiting for the next adventure for months now. I always have appreciated how the new technologies and current scientific ideas are part of the stories, but lately the happenings and news also make them into the book, giving a more realistic approach. That makes it even more relatable right now.

I hope we keep getting more Scarpeta, nut now I am also waiting for the next installment of her new series too.

Good example of Nero Wolfe

Revisado: 08-02-22

I was a little apprehensive to start reading Nero Wolfe by someone else other than Rex Stout. I am glad that Goldsborough did a great job and that the Rex Stout state chose him to continue his legacy. The idea of bringing Nero Wolfe 30 years into the future, was also daring. I suppose that we are already far enough from the 80’s to see it as a classic piece too.
He can deliver the same soul of any Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin story. The use of specific vocabulary typical to Wolfe and Archie, and the idea of bring back the same banter and relationship with all the other peripheral characters was right to the point.

This may not be my favorite Nero Wolfe story from Goldsborough, but it’s pretty good and fateful to the brand. I am looking forward to more Nero Wolfe.

I love that Scarpeta is back

Revisado: 01-04-22

The narrator was bad, but after the second chapter got better. Her voice inflection was the same monotonous slow inanimate voice for every character, or narrator part, which makes it complicated. But again, it gets better. I would reconnect to play it faster than 1.3 to make it bárranle.
The story is as awesome like any other Scarpetta book. It’s bad that Lucy is an eternal victim of circumstances, over and over. I love how Kay always moves at the top spheres, but keeps her feet very well grounded.
Looking forward to more books from Cornwell.
