I was put off by the description of this book as sci-fi. It's so much more than that. The story of pending doom on Earth, and how they work to find a solution. Ray Porter does an awesome job of narrating. The technology is a little over the top, but listening makes it easy to slide past. I really enjoyed this, so glad I bought it!

This is the tale of a group of Octogenarians who live in a retirement community and love to solve mysteries. Cozy mysteries are not my usual preference, but I truly enjoyed this book and have already purchased the next in this series. Likeable characters, set in a lovely village in England. Looking forward to the next book.

What made the experience of listening to The Troubled Man the most enjoyable?

This book was a pleasant surprise. I had not read any of this series, but I saw an episode based on the books on PBS. I didn't really like the show at all, but I thought I would give it a try. While Kurt Wallander is definately not my favorite character - too whiney and dramatic for me - I would recommend this book. The plot was good and it was interesting enough to have me looking for an escape to take my MP3 somewhere and get 30 min of listening time.

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

I wasn't really on the edge of my seat, but it did draw me back, pulling on my emotions of what happened to the missing man and the story of the girl in the home.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Wallander was visiting the home, describing the emotions he was experiencing there.

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

A suspensful and heart rending story!

Any additional comments?

This was a very enjoyable book.

What disappointed you about Lucifer's Shadow?

I found the story very hard to follow since it moves from past to present and back. The characters were not well developed and I could not follow who was who in the plot. I gave up and didn't finish the book....life is too short to listen to bad books.

Would you ever listen to anything by David Hewson again?

I would not search him out, but I wouldn't NOT listen to a book because he was the reader.

How could the performance have been better?

He needs to give more variation to his character voices to help the listner keep the separate.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Lucifer's Shadow?

Most of them!

Any additional comments?

I just did not like this book!
