Too bad about the Narrator

Story was good, but the narrator’s constant, undulating lilt ruined the experience for me and gave every character a trait that I’m sure the author never intended.

Odd Choice of Narrator

Great story, odd choice of narrator. Why choose a narrator for whom American English (the language/dialect of the book’s characters) is not their first language? It was distracting. Also, the production value was poor. Many excerpts throughout the book sounded louder or quieter than others, and some excerpts seemed to be “spliced in.”

I have listened to multiple Lawson novels over the past month. Here’s my takeaway:
—I have grown to appreciate the narrator. I did not like him at first, but he is actually perfect for this part.
—The author/DelMarco has a great sense of humor.
—There is a great balance of left wing/right wing ideology.
—I usually like an author’s work less and less the more I listen to it; but it is the opposite for Lawson—keep ’em coming!

A plodding, overly circuitous storyline coupled with enough similes and metaphors to choke a horse, made for an agonizing read. The overly detailed narration detracted from the novel.

There was no mystery here. I identified the culprit the first time the character was introduced. I’m sure most readers did. As for the narrator, his over the top dramatic interpretations worked for the Ayn Rand novels, but are downright silly and distracting in all the other fictional works he’s done.

... I listened to the entire book was so I could write this review. The story itself was ridiculous. The dialogue was terrible and repetitive. I lost count at the number of times the main characters said “I don’t understand.” The narrator used so much unnecessary inflection that, even if the story had been a good one, it would have been ruined. Did the author really intend for the protagonist to come off as whiny, miserable, judgmental, and insecure as she was presented? Ms. LaVoy’s presentation was over the top and tiresome. She and Coben should offer purchasers of this audiobook a refund.

I was too distracted by the overuse of metaphors and similes, only a few of which were worth keeping in the dialogue, to fully enjoy the story. I also grew weary of every character showing confusion, or asking for clarification, ANY time a question was posed. So many better Coben novels to choose. Skip this one.

This was a great story that petered out by the end. Another 10% of quality storytelling to deliver a more substantive finish would have saved this book.

Ridiculous story line, unbelievable characters, stilted dialogue, and a slew of contradictions made this a real chore to get through. It was a complete waste of time.

A silly protagonist with a trite chip on her soldier in a tiresome tale that left me very disappointed.
