The story was not engaging as most of his stories are. It was like I was assigned to read it in high school and had to trudge through it. Narrators voice seemed forced and not in rhythm with story. I tried to return it but found I couldn’t because I paid cash and not an audible credit

It’s Poe. How can you go wrong? The classical voice is odd to modern ears but well enjoyed

Not Connellys best but a ‘good’ story

Not Connellys best but a ‘good’ story. Narrator wasn’t very convincing. Characters and plot were good enough to be enjoyable. I’ve read lots of titles by this author and this one disappointed me

I like the first part best. William Hurt did a phenomenal job of narrating and acting I guess you would call it. The succeeding parts of the tale took me a while to see their connections to the first part. Vietnam was very real and the finale was final in tremendous SK style. Bravo

Fresh new dark. Hard to find anything I didn’t like. Kate Mulgrews voice was perfect for this

SK stories are amazing in that they could be a thousand pages and you still can’t wait to get to the next one. Our main protagonist and his sidekick are the most unlikely of heroes but yet they are the most relatable and realistic people. The setting and the conflict is audacious. Also if you are a reader of The Tower Series you won’t miss thematic elements, language and characters from those tales. Only one bad thing to say. I never want to listen to Eli Wallach the narrator again oft times so soft spoken I couldn’t turn up the volume enough to understand clearly as he tailed off a sentence. I’m sure many people won’t have the same trouble as I did.

Nice to see a crime thriller intertwined with a redemption aspect. I thought it was great but conclusion to story was rushed and generic

Classic S. K. with overtly supernatural themes and believable human characters. Tremendous narrative that is hard to put down

Demille read by Scott Brick. Hard to improve on that. A gripping tale that draws you into it and makes you feel….
