Poor riiting, poor narration

Revisado: 07-11-24

Basically no story, no mystery at all, just talk about nothing. The narrators attempts at various characters were awful, but she was able to roll her "r's" anyway

Complex, but easy to follow.

Revisado: 09-18-21

I usually have trouble following complex plots but Box managed to keep this book complex, exciting and easy to follow. Besides, he can describe beauty like a poet. And don't even get me going on how perfectly Chandler can "channel" Box's brain in his interpretation.

Excellently read and written as usual with Box and Chandler. Always look forward to the next one. So well woven together.

Huge!

Revisado: 09-01-18

We listen to books every weekend as we drive for three hours and back three hours. We were able to follow this book easily and it made the miles whizz by because it's captivating. We used to live in Kenya and I have visited Ghana and kept thinking of the Rwandan massacre while we lived there. This should be made into a movie by the director of Black Panther!

I had no idea what it was like to live under aparthide. His early life was so difficult. His narration is authentic. Better than reading it.

Difficult to follow while driving.

My wife had no trouble following the plot, but I kept getting getting utterly lost in all the characters and misc details that seemed to have little to do with the plot. The narrator seems to have not enough different voices to identify each character distinctly.

long and boring

Revisado: 03-18-17

At first it seemed like we would gain interesting insights, and that was true, but then they were just repeated over and over. The story never seemed to go anywhere and in the end just seemed to stop. I figured out early on that we were supposed be looking for symbolic underlying meanings and perhaps they were flying over my head. It seemed to be one of those books for a lit class to analyze or for a jaded reviewer to enjoy because it was very creative in its approach. But for casual listening as we ride in our car not so much.

Very odd background noises. Old time radio narration. plot weak. gratuitous sex scenes...but not too graphic. would not recommend it.

Very Internal Thoughtful

Revisado: 06-10-10

I noticed that some reviewers thought this book was much slower than the others. It is more about what is going on in the minds of the characters and not so much about the mysteries she solves. I enjoyed the thoughts because we lived in Kenya for five years and the thought processes and cadence of speech reminded me of my friends there. Perhaps people who are most interested in the mysteries should stick with other detective series. This one is mostly about the people who live in Africa.
