Drug lords, smuggling, a dead man with a new life!

What made the experience of listening to The Lazarus File the most enjoyable?

It was a great story with lots of suspense and interesting concepts. It was fun to read and different from any other book I've read before. I really enjoyed it.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

It was suspenseful. The main character has several where he comes to hard circumstances that make it an intense read.

What about Alexander Edward Trefethen’s performance did you like?

I thought it was very well performed, easy to listen to and enjoyable. He did a great job.

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

Had I been able to yes, I would have loved to have listened to it all at once. I ended up listening to it in about 3 segments though.

Any additional comments?

The Lazarus File is a great story of a soldier who was declared dead, given a new identity and life, and used by the government for undercover work. Diving into the world of transporting illegal drugs and ruthless drug lords, he is in for a crazy ride.

I had a hard time putting this one down, it is fast paced and full of exciting scenes. I really enjoyed it and can't wait to see what Taylor comes up with next. 5 Stars.

Secret Agent Man

A story do drugs politics and strange bedfellows.... More fraud, and lies are going on behind the scenes. And then comes the double agents within our own government.
The book contains a number of heanous acts that are performed without any remorse....lots of bravado, and high risk moments throughout the book. The book isa solid 4 star ,but not quite a 5.

Good "Cozy" Adventure

I like a good spy story, and this was no exception! I also appreciated that it was not littered with bad language, and there were no sexual situations. It was kind of like watching a classic movie, where things were hinted at, but that was all. I would still not recommend this for children, as it involved spies, drug lords, and violence.

The narration was well done, but not exceptional. One problem was the narrator's pronunciation of Spanish. He pronounced many names and words correctly. But his American pronunciation of "señor(a)" (even by native Spanish-speaking characters) was quite off-base. Someone should have caught that, and taught the narrator how to pronounce thosr words correctly.
