Absolutely loved the first book in the series and this second book didn't disappoint. I found this hard to put down, I couldn't wait to hear what was happening next. I love the pictures painted by the words. Highly recommend.

What did you love best about The Dispatcher?

The story is great and Zachary Quinto brings it to life.

The Dispatcher with all of his character flaws.

What about Zachary Quinto’s performance did you like?

Amazing performance, I enjoy his acting but this was so much more.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

See you at the Oscars!

Not the sort of book I usually go for but wanted to hear Zachary Quinto. This left me wanting more, as soon as I finished this book I looked for more by the same author.

I ain't no Bunny, Honey

Revisado: 08-28-16

Would you consider the audio edition of Down the Rabbit Hole to be better than the print version?

I prefer audio books so yes for me.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

No surprises as it is already out there...

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, I did enjoy listening to Holly, she was very professional with her narration

Any additional comments?

I was disappointed generally in how Holly portrayed herself - it seems that women's liberation missed that part of America completely. However I did enjoyed the book as a light read, it gave you a first hand look into the the life of the Hugh and his girlfriends but honestly we all know that the girls that are with Hugh Hefner are with him because of what he can do for their careers and for the money, and good on her getting something out of it.

I never knew opera could be so exciting

Revisado: 08-23-16

If you could sum up How to Listen to and Understand Opera in three words, what would they be?

compelling, passionate, dangerous

Who was your favorite character and why?

Professor Robert Greenberg, he was so passionate about opera, it was infectious. I travel a lot therefore listen to books to help pass the time driving. I am listening to books I wouldn't normally listen to, I learnt so much about opera, just loved every minute of this.

Have you listened to any of Professor Robert Greenberg’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I haven't listened to him before but will be looking for more audible books from him.

Any additional comments?

well worth the credit.

Would you listen to Where Roses Never Die again? Why?

I would listen to it again as I enjoyed the flow of the book, the way everyday things were described.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Where Roses Never Die?

I don't want to give anything away, so I will just say that the book was very enjoyable with twists and turns and came together and tied it all off nicely at the end.

What about Colin Mace’s performance did you like?

I loved this chap's voice and it felt like I was there listening to a lot of different people. Really gets you engaged in the book and plots.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I believe I could, but I needed to sleep unfortunately.

Any additional comments?

Great listen, I really enjoyed this book. Would highly recommend.

Can't Wait For The Next One

Revisado: 05-08-16

What made the experience of listening to Wolf the most enjoyable?

As with all of her books in this series, I love Jack Caffery, and how he views the world. There is plenty of detail about what the characters are thinking, she also sets the scene well, its the little things she writes describing a scene and situation, and I think wow, I can really see that. I like the detail.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Wolf?

The twists and turns, nothing is ever what it seems. You are travelling down one path, you see the ending clearly then there is that twist that just sets it apart from a lot of other books. A great thriller, you wont be disappointed.

What does Jot Davies bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I am always amazed when one person can bring so many characters to life and you believe you are listening to the actual characters talking.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Wolf - I think this is the best title.

Any additional comments?

If you enjoy thrillers and the unexpected you will enjoy this.

Another Great Listen

Revisado: 01-22-16

Would you listen to Bred to Kill again? Why?

Yes, it is a great story, well written, kept my interest from start to finish. I loved the characters with all their flaws, I could really identify with them. This is the second book I have listened to by Franck Thilliez. I thoroughly enjoyed the first as well.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Lots of intertwining plots, leads you down one path, and all comes to a final conclusion.

What about Gildart Jackson’s performance did you like?

I really enjoyed listening to Gildart, he narrated the story extremely well, with lots of different voices for characters.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I could have done if I had have had the time to do so.

Any additional comments?

Can't wait for the next book to be translated. If you enjoy a great, edge of your seat, story with characters with depth, I highly recommend it.
