Love this Series

Revisado: 02-23-22 El oyente recibió este título gratis

Carson Reno has become one of my favorite detectives. He isn't deliberately funny, but certainly qualifies as a character by any definition you may want to use.
In this one he starts out as the accused murderer and naturally ends up not only clearing himself. but solving a very cleverly laid out case.
You can tell the narrator is enjoying the story as much as the listener. That's not a bad thing at all.
Looking forward to more of these.

This one is different

Revisado: 02-23-22 El oyente recibió este título gratis

I have listened to all the other Huggins audios and frankly thought this one might disappoint as the plot seemed a little far fetched. Still in this one he does a much better job than his usual in getting you to really like and understand the characters. You actually want them to win, not just expect them to.

As with all his books, the action is exciting, the science seems plausible, and the finish is satisfying.

This might actually end up as my favorite so far.

Classic PI Mysteries

Revisado: 11-27-21 El oyente recibió este título gratis

Like finding a new supply of old fashioned PI books. All set in 1960s Memphis they are hard to put down once you start. Brings many of the old Mike Hammer type stories to mind. Well narrated. All a all a great fun listen.

Well done!

Revisado: 11-26-21

The author really succeeds in educating the reader about the sorry state of capital punishment in the US, without trying to influence the reader to be pro, or con capital punishment. He presents picture of just how unrepentant and down right frightening these killers are, Releasing them back into society at any point is obviously not even remotely possible. Don't assume this is a plea against cruelty. It is honest reporting, not preaching.
The narrator has exactly the right tone and pace for this type of book.

Pleasant discovery.

Revisado: 10-04-21

Great characters in some very clever mysteries with a fair amount of humor. Easy listen and very well narrated. Will be following this series.

Another good chapter

Revisado: 09-17-21 El oyente recibió este título gratis

There was such a long time between #6 and this one I had to go back and relisten to that one first. This is another good chapter. This series got off to a shaky start I thought, but these later editions are very good. Both the author and the narrator seem to have it their stride.

Another Winner

Revisado: 08-14-21

So far there is no such thing as a bad Harry Starke novel. This one takes Harry to Mexico for the first time in his life where lots of colorful and dangerous characters make the story interesting and fast moving.

The narration as always is perfect for these books.

Nice Clean little Romance!

Revisado: 06-16-21 El oyente recibió este título gratis

Nice introduction to Leo and Marcie. Hopefully there will be future books to add to the story. The narration seemed right on for the kind of mellow feeling to the entire book.

Way over the top Star Trek

Revisado: 04-16-19

All the standard characters are there, but they are like none you have met before. An added treat is a good guy that's the spitting image of the big White Abominable Snowman from the old Stop Action Christmas TV shows.

It is impossible to evaluate the story line in any normal sense. It is ridiculous, absurd and simply great fun for the listener. Can't imagine what the next in the series will be like, but I will buy it as soon as I can.

Hard to put down!

Revisado: 03-20-17

What did you love best about Brownstone?

Action starts off fairly quickly and I for one had no idea where the plot was going - Great!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Harold the cab driver. Jack is likable, that's really important, but Harold is the guy I would want to have a cup of coffee with. Prince of a guy.

What about Tom Lennon’s performance did you like?

Harold. He really got into the role and had fun with it. Made it fun to listen to.

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

Yes!

Any additional comments?

There is much about the plot that can't hold up to close examination. Unanswered questions and just plain illogical moves by Jack at times, however you are on such a fast exciting ride at the time you don't notice. You need to remember this is entertainment, not meant to be a historical documentary. Will be buying second in this series as soon as it is out.
