Elliott Smith wakes up in the hospital with a head injury - and an invisible companion. At first, he's convinced "John" is just a figment of a damaged brain, but when he's fully recovered John is still around and desperate to find out who he is. Reluctantly, Elliott agrees to help and discovers Chicago PD has a John Doe on their hands with six bullets in him - who died in the ER at the same time Elliott was there.

A good listen, but characterization seems sketchy
Revisado: 06-20-13
Would you listen to His Name Is John again? Why?
Yes, an interesting story approach, but characters need to be fleshed out more.
What did you like best about this story?
The evolution of John as an individual, almost like an infant learning to walk and talk.
Would you listen to another book narrated by Jim Hickey?
Probably, not a particularly dynamic reader but liked the way the audio was changed when addressing telephone calls.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The very end, when John's voice came across as his own rather than a conversation in Elliott's mind.
Any additional comments?
Normally, I do not care for explicit "sex scenes" in books; however, Elliot's relationship with Steve comes across very flat and not very believable. I think the book would have benefited greatly from more detail on the relationship.
