Star studded cast

Revisado: 12-14-23

I found this to be mediocre. Just not as wowed as everyone else I guess. I didn’t find the story that engaging and thought the performance made for a lot of shortcomings. I don’t regret the credit, but probably won’t listen again.

Off to a great start!

I enjoyed the new magic system as well as the sidekick. Looking forward to the next one!

Poorly researched, not nearly as good as first book

Revisado: 06-17-23

I enjoyed the first book, and was excited to listen to the second. The narrator is great, no issues there.

There’s far less character building here, and even the action isn’t well written. Also - Macs in a SCIF? Any federal employee using a MacBook as their work computer? No. Just no. It’s like the author took the elements from the first book and shuffled them, without actually putting any thought into it. A lot could have been done, but it wasn’t.

A note on the narrator…

Revisado: 07-17-22

The way the narrator voices the cats is horrendous and borderline racist. Better to have stuck to English and pseudo-English accents. It turned what could have been humorous interludes into something that had to be endured.

A fitting end

Revisado: 11-20-17

A fine end to the series. I thought the storylines tied up nicely and the context provided was especially helpful.

Great start to a new character

Revisado: 08-11-17

I really enjoyed this book. I've read pretty much everything Connelly has ever written, and I feel that Ballard has great potential. The story had a few surprises, which is always a pleasure. It wasn't too easy to figure out.

I feel like Ballard is a very real character, with depths and complexities we have yet to see. I liked the way Connelly handled writing a female perspective, and I also felt like he had a good grasp of the complicated place of a woman in a male-dominated profession (I am one of those, too).

I think the narrator has a great voice for Ballard. She could use some work differentiating between Ballard's voice and that of other characters, but I hope she develops that and sticks with the series.

Overall, highly recommended.

Meh.

Revisado: 12-01-16

While I normally love Reacher books that put him back in his Army days, this one never grabbed my attention. I found myself spacing out and needing to listen to parts again. We didn't really learn anything new about Reacher as a character. So, meh.

New spin on an old premise.

Revisado: 11-30-15

I generally don't like it when authors read their own books. This is no exception. I made it through, but the reading was not good.

The story itself was good, and a nice twist on an oft-used premise.

Sookie strikes again

Revisado: 05-25-07

This is my favorite of the Sookie Stackhouse books. There's vampire and shapeshifter action, good character development, plenty of action (more than I expected)....but Harris keeps Sookie's charm and likeability intact.

So much better that the

Revisado: 12-03-06

I've been a fan of Diana Gabaldon for years, and I was one of the many who wrote to Audible customer service begging to see the unabridged titles in the Outlander series added to the Audible library. At long last...I was so excited when "Outlander" showed up one day. I checked back every week to see when "Dragonfly in Amber" would be posted!

Gabaldon does thorough historical research and has excellent chaacter development in her stories. There is romance, but not so much that I would put the book in that category. There is mystery and magic, action and adventure, intrigue and espionage.

"Dragonfly in Amber" picks up where "outlander" leaves off, but it also carries the listener forward to what the future may hold and sets the next few books up nicely.
