Will this be the Death of Privacy or will the worldwide domination of personal information be successfully thwarted?

Story
On a desolate beach in far northern Scotland, the winter storms have been washing up all manner of things since time began. But buried in the centre of one smaller iceberg is a shard of ancient Viking pottery telling a partial tale of a hidden mysterious island beyond the ice and mist, that was home to a great treasure and even greater horrors. Thawing in the same block of ice was a rotting flap of skin that refused to be identified but had similar skin patterns to a creature not seen for 100 million years.

Judge Raymond Fawcett has just become number five....

Hated the reader
Book 3 of the series continues the storyline well from the first 2 books. But I hated the reader for this book. Read too fast and didn't perform the characters as well as the reader from the first two books.

Kevin Klay narrates well but his character voices are not good here. Sam sounds like Shrek, Purdue sounds like the villain from Scooby Doo, and Nina is Stewie from Family Guy. Really messed it up for me. Sorry Kevin...

Unable to listen to for more that 10 minutes
Would you ever listen to anything by Preston Child again?
The first two books of the series that I read were ok. I was also hooked in thinking the book was written by Preston AND Childs, not one person. I had purchased this book before I listened to the others, but I would have if I had listened to them before.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Kevin Clay?
After about 5 minutes I was unable to listen to the narration any more. He sounded like he was jumping out of his skin with excitement when nothing exciting was happening yet. All of his sentences were run together. It was impossible to know where the narration ended and the character lines were being read.

Worst narrator ever!!!
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
A different narrator.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Black Sun Rising?
Couldn't last 5 minutes.
How could the performance have been better?
Use the first narrator. The new guy was horrible.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Anger due to the narrator.
Any additional comments?
The first two books were great. I was hooked and like the story. Less than 5 minutes into the new book I wanted to bang my head against the wall. The narrator was absolutely the worst I'd ever heard. He sounded like he was trying to race through the book. I couldn't stand listening to it a second more.

This book is NOT by Douglas Preston& Lincoln Child
Don't be tricked into this stupid series thinking it is by Preston & Child because it is not, and if you've wasted time and money on it into book 3, you'll find it utterly ludicrous to believe the turn of events in book 2 and who the heroine is now bedding.
