A new series and another home run for Sigler

Revisado: 06-18-24

As a fan of Sigler’s other work I was very interested in the first book of a new series. As usual with his books, you’re immediately drawn in with the action and then want to stick around for the multi-dimensional characters and a story that keeps you guessing right up to the last page.

Great Pratchett story ruined by terrible narration

Revisado: 04-23-24

This is one of my favorite Sir Terry stories, I’ve read it many times, but I really didn’t enjoy this version and couldn’t finish it. The voices the narrator chose for most of the main characters couldn’t be farther from the way those character’s personalities are written and it really distracts from the excellent storytelling.

The best of the new recordings so far

Revisado: 06-02-23

Jingo is one of my favorite Pratchett stories. I haven’t liked most of the new recordings of the disc world books, and I don’t think anyone could top Stephen Briggs for narration of these books. That said, Jon Culshaw does well with the voices, apart from Sybil, and is great at delivering the extremely dry humor in this story.

Another touchdown for Singler and his fans

Revisado: 09-16-21

This is an excellent 17 hour “side story” in the Galactic Football League series, which in turn is part of the 700 year spanning Siglerverse.
If you’ve read/listened the books leading up to this story, you will be very well rewarded for your time. If you haven’t, it’s still a great story, but do yourself a huge favor and go start the beginning.
Even if you’re not a sports fan or American football fan, you will love these books and end up buying extra copies of the print versions just to give away.

Amazing addition to the Aliens universe

Revisado: 02-27-20

Fantastic story, one of Sigler’s best. Pinchot continues to be one of my all time fav narrators.

Had to return because of narrator

Revisado: 09-06-19

I love Tanith Lee, and this is a great book, but I could not deal with the horrible, sing-song narration. The narrator is fine when reading character dialog, but when not she uses the exact same tone pattern on every line of text regardless of whether it fits that line of text or not. It completely pulled me out of the story every time.
