Decent Anthology

Revisado: 07-03-23

Entertaining anthology. Given the nature of anthologies - different authors, performers - it is uneven in its quality. Still, a good introduction into the Four Horsemen universe. I would have rated it higher, but Audible does not allow readers to provide fractional ratings (e.g. 4.1 stars).

Excellent

Revisado: 06-04-23

Immersive storytelling presented with flash and style. I hated to see it come to a close.

Fun Ride

Revisado: 04-22-23

Fun and well paced action tale. The back story of the fictional island owes a big nod to the history of the real-world Oak Island.

Interesting and a Little Disappointing

Revisado: 03-26-23

This book is more of an exploration of the quirky American craft cheese subculture than a book about cheese. The writing is a little too cute for its own good at times. I would have liked more information about cheese in lieu of the constant one-liners and pop culture references. The author often revels in his newly acquired cheese vocabulary, but that self-indulgence does not really help the listener understand cheese. Still, the book was interesting and did spark in me a new interest in cheese, so mission accomplished!

Informative, but...

Revisado: 08-24-22

Informative and interesting, written by an author passionate about his subject matter and dedicated to relating well-researched stories. Having said that, it is often preachy and unapologetically progressive.

Before you buy...

Revisado: 08-10-21

Before you buy please note that while this collection of stories lives up to the usual quality of every book in the Dresden series, it contains three tales featuring Big Foot that are also being packaged and sold as a separate Audible offering. If you have already purchased that item, as I did, you may be disappointed to find that content duplicated here.

Disappointing

Revisado: 02-17-21

Perhaps it was my expectations, but I was disappointed this story ended without a resolution.

Light-hearted Fun

Revisado: 10-21-20

Sci-fi comedy is a difficult mix to get right. This book succeeds at pulling it off.

Excessive Violence

Revisado: 07-11-20

I like this series of books. They are wonderfully over-the-top and action packed. Sort of a literary version of a summer block-buster. Having said that, this book seemed to be excessively violent, even by the standards set by the preceding books. Perhaps it is just my perception, skewed by recent events.

Good War Thriller

Revisado: 03-05-20

I was initially reluctant to get this because of its 20+ hour length. Glad now that I did! I would compare this book favorably to Tom Clancy's early, best work.
