East Texas Taylor

How did the details get missed?

Revisado: 01-12-24

Being former service, an avid 2nd amendment enthusiast, and most of my friends are either active or former law enforcement so many details off and others missed entirely. No proper terminology in the way of firearms or their capacity/capability, a mountain of BS about killing a pair of killers by herself (given the total lack of experience leading to that recap) poor and improbable character development. I will try and finish after 10 chapters, but I’m not impressed. This has to be a coauthor’s book, I don’t believe that D Koontz would miss so many important details that avid readers wouldn’t. This is a feminist perspective with a tilt and agenda, spare me your nonsense and tell a proper tale!

Underlying message I perceived was integrity

Revisado: 11-28-23

It was a good read, though I’ll admit I wasn’t sure if it would be for the first several chapters until characters had been established. The twist was only slightly expected only because the amount of time left. Overall a pretty good book.

Awful narration

Revisado: 01-13-23

As stated by another review the story is quite good, however all the I said, she said implied contextual is overdone to Nth degree. The narrator was trying to overdo it as though he was a voice actor, rather than altering his inflection and fake accent. The narrator assumed the protagonist was a deep voiced idiot macho type, rather than a refined intellectual. In short good book ruined by atrocious narration and novice level author overstating obvious with little understanding or research of clandestine operations.

Trashy novel

Revisado: 11-22-22

Excuse for the author to write out her fantasies with a “mystery” going on in the background. Awful repetitious writing style, drawing out the book far longer than it should have. I suffered through most of it, not sure why I bothered. Other reviews were correct in their perspective, I should have heeded the warnings.

Character flaws and narrator who wants to be a voice actor

Revisado: 10-21-22

The plot is stretched too far and you can tell when the author wrote himself into a corner only to wriggle out of it with story gaps and inexorable character leaps that contradict previous examples of the character. His “soldiers perspective” shows he knows nothing about military personnel or anything about tactics.
The narrator started out ok then began voice acting to a annoying level to the point it was irritating and over the top. Screaming and yelling is not ok for a narrator.

Author needs to do more research

Revisado: 09-15-22

Really cheesy and difficult to listen through without wanting to correct the terminology. Author is at best trying to appeal to a younger less informed crowd. Cobra? Really!?

Wanted to like it

Revisado: 07-21-22

The plot though slow to reveal itself fully was pretty good from what I was able to stomach. The literature itself was written rather poorly in my opinion and seems to have researched only half of the military terminology. The narration was terrible, he has little ability to mimic accents. I wanted to like it, but overall performance and unnecessary contexts was too much to overcome.

Really bad narration

Revisado: 03-05-22

Plot is ok if not slightly predictable, however after struggling through 3 hrs hoping it would get better the horrible narration was too much to take. Probably an ok quick read while traveling but couldn’t pass muster for audible listeners who are accustomed to well written novels.
