Steven Pacey
Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Buried, the fifth installment of the Department Q series by Jussi Adler-Olsen, read by Steven Pacey.
More than three years ago, a civil servant vanished after returning from a work trip to Africa. Though he's missing and presumed dead, the man's family still want answers.
It is one of the many unsolved crimes left for Department Q, Denmark's cold-case unit headed up by Detective Carl Morck.
But what Carl doesn't know is that the key to the investigation is in Copenhagen. Fifteen-year-old Marco Jameson is tough, smart, and suspicious of police. Sleeping rough and hiding in the shadows is his way of life. But what is he running from - and what does he know worth killing him for?
Please note: This book has also been published under the alternate title The Marco Effect.

This book is the same book as Marco Effect. Different name different narrator. It was interesting to see how the two narrator portrayed the characters. I downloaded this in error thinking that audible made a typo with it listed also being book fiveof dept Q. I could have returned it but did not. I am a fan of Dept Q. Very unique group of investigators. Assad and his camel colloquialisms make me laugh out loud.Buried Marco Effect

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
No. I listened to "The Marco Effect" Narrated by Graeme Malcolm before listening to Buried. Same story different Narrator. I thought Steven Pacey's narration has a distinct British feel. I much prefer the Danish accent of Graeme Malcolm. I am returning "Buried". "The Marco Effect" I shall keep.Any additional comments?
I hope the Department Q Series shall continue to be narrated by Graeme Malcolm. I enjoy this series and this reader. Jussi Adler-Olsen's writing and Malcom's narration are exceptional and well matched.It is interesting that Audible released the same story with different titles and different narrators. Seems Audible, the publisher, or the author are experimenting with reader reviews. Could someone at Audible please explain the motivation for releasing this story as separate entities?

Would you try another book from Jussi Adler-Olsen and/or Steven Pacey?
This book has ALREADY been offered under the title The Marco Effect. The story is great, and I love this author. So I was very excited to see a new title!! But sadly, it is new in title alone. I was so disappointed. If you haven't heard book 5, then definitely get this. But if you're an Adler-Olsen fan just check that you haven't already purchased book 5. (This isn't the first time I've run into this so of thing with audio books.)Be Forewarned....

I suspect that Adler-Olsen must attribute some of his popularity in English-speaking countries to his excellent translator, Martin Aitken. Aitken has the perfect translator’s touch: He knows when — and how much — to deviate from the exact translation in order to convey the real meaning of Adler-Olsen’s Danish words. For example, he needs to translate Danish slang into approximately equivalent English slang; and he needs to translate Assad’s Danish idiomatic blunders into approximately equivalent (and equally funny) English idiomatic blunders: “Log, stick, and barrel”; “Like minds think greatly.” Translators don’t often get sufficient acknowledgement for their skill; but — to my mind — translator Martin Aitken and narrator Steven Pacey deserve almost equal credit with author Jussi Adler-Olsen for making Buried the wonderful audiobook that we get to listen to here.
Speaking of narrators: I, too — like several of Buried’s other reviewers — failed to notice that Buried is the same novel as The Marco Effect (even though it says so right up there ⬆︎, for Pete’s sake!); but I do not regret having downloaded both versions of this audiobook: The Marco Effect and Buried have two different — equally good — narrators. I love good acting, so I enjoyed listening to both versions of this audiobook one after the other. However, if you cannot afford to download both versions, then I would recommend choosing Buried to download … only because narrator Steven Pacey has a bit wider range of voices and accents than does The Marco Effect’s narrator, Graeme Malcolm. On the other hand, Mr. Malcolm reads a bit faster than Mr. Pacey, and Malcolm has the more beautiful voice; so you may want to listen to Audible’s 4-minute samples of each version, before you make your decision. I do not think that you can go wrong with either version.
In summary, I recommend Buried to all fans of crime fiction with just a soupçon of humor, and to all aficionados of good acting. Just remember to start the series at the beginning, and listen to the series in sequence.
Something Rotten in Denmark!

Where does Buried rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
a top ten for sure. This is my 3rd Dept Q books. Love the characters, love the dialogue, and enjoy the plots as wellDid the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
It's not an edge of the seat book. This is one that is to move along through characters, and events to a logical conclusions. Yes, some doubts, some tension, but great story, and I enjoy the journey.Which scene was your favorite?
Enjoy Marco sitting in the safe hiding from Zola's thieves were looking through the house for himWas there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Happy when the paralyzed detective was able to move, and felt bad when the main character's girlfriend dumped him.Any additional comments?
These are the kind of character driven plots, ( like Len Deighton books) that are plausible, and travel at an enjoyable pace. Good stuff!!Dept Q... a winner
