Perhaps it was the abridgment, which took out nearly all opportunities for character enhancement and reader empathy. Or perhaps it was this narrator's voice, diction, and pacing; he added nothing in the way of emotion or drama. Because of the author's reputation, and the suggestion of several friends, I may try another in this series someday -- in print! Not quite up to snuff for a Tanenbaum novel, this one still gripped me. With one glaring exception, the characters were as deep and fully developed as they usually are. But that one exception was a real clunker. The principle villain in the book is as relentlessly evil as Snidely Whiplash was . . . and about as believable. Portions of the plot were also strictly out of the cliffhanging serials of the 30's and 40's. Despite those criticisms, though, I felt compelled to finish the book. And my time wasn't wasted. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Although I listened to the majority of the read, it's an official PTB (pull the bookmark)
AND I'll pass on the 15 preceding offerings.
I was put off, big time, by the language, narration (which, to be fair, represented multiple ethnicities and vocations) and a story that I had difficulty following.
It is said that there are genres and subgenres for everyone.
For the record...This novel does not represent one of mine!

On a lighter note, I enjoyed some review titles that I saw:
