Great story, terrible narrator

Revisado: 08-04-15

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would only recommend this book for a friend if it was narrated by someone else. The narrator kept switching voices he used for the different characters, which made following some of the dialogue very confusing. The story itself was great!

How could the performance have been better?

The performance would have been better if the narrator consistently used the same voice for each character. He would use one tone of voice for a certain character, only to then use it for a different character later in the book, and change the voice of the original character. I almost stopped listening to this story because the narrator was awful. However, the story itself is great, and I'm glad that I made it all the way through.

Any additional comments?

It may be better to just read this book unless you can find it narrated by someone else.

Excellent, like all other D.D. Warren novels

Where does Fear Nothing rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This story was excellent and in keeping with all of the previous Detective D.D. Warren novels.

Any additional comments?

I enjoy this book series because you become familiar with the main characters, and there is a continuing storyline among them throughout. However, you could also read each novel as a stand alone, but I would recommend reading the other D.D. Warren novels first. I find it interesting that even though D.D. is in every novel, the story is always from a different character's point of view.

Action packed

Revisado: 01-24-14

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this to anyone who likes futuristic books about dystopian societies. The storyline is intriguing and easily captures and keeps the listener's attention. However, this is a young adult novel, and includes a lot of awkward teenage sexual tension, which is the only thing I did not like about it. If you can get past that, the story itself is excellent.

Okay I guess

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

No, I didn't even finish the book because it could not keep my attention. My husband and I like to listen to audiobooks on long roadtrips, and we just could not listen to this one for very long before deciding it is awful.

What disappointed you about METAtropolis?

I couldn't even finish this book because it is so boring. I was bored from the start, but tried to listen as long as possible just in case it got better... it didn't.

What did you love best about The King of Plagues?

The story is great, and the narrator is phenomenal. He really makes the characters come to life.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Joe Ledger of course! He is a bad-ass, sarcastic, and brutally honest.

Have you listened to any of Ray Porter’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, Ray is awesome, and I don't think the Joe Ledger series would be the same narrated by someone else.

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

Yes! I listened to this book during my commute to and from work, and I found myself sitting in my car after parking as long as possible to continue listening!

Any additional comments?

You must listen to the first two books before this one to completely understand all of the characters.

If you could sum up The Bone Garden in three words, what would they be?

an exciting ride

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

The narrator was great; I loved how she used different voices for each of the characters.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This story constantly held my attention, and the story continues to get better throughout as you learn more scandalous details. The ending was perfect because the whole story comes full circle. Some parts did make me cringe because there are many gory details, but they only added to the overall emotion of the book.

Grossed me out, couldn't finish the book

Revisado: 08-21-13

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

The story itself bugged me. I'm really not interested in hearing stories about rape, child abuse, etc. If this kind of thing doesn't bother you, then you would probably enjoy the rest of the story line.

Interesting lectures on biotechnology

Revisado: 08-21-13

Where does Understanding Genetics: DNA, Genes, and Their Real-World Applications rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is probably my favorite non-fiction audiobook so far.

What did you like best about this story?

The content is very relevant to our lives and is pretty up to date on modern biotechnology. The beginning had a great review of genetics before jumping into the biotechnology lectures.
