Unabridged Audiobook
Good book little too much of coincidences, good narration
It's a decent read. I was not impressed with the narration. It took me a while to get past the narration, and into the book itself because all I could focus on was how bad the narration was. I like a book with a medical mystery or medical suspense story line. This one has that, but is too obvious and not very realistic. Just decent. Maybe 2.5 stars out of five.
GOOD BOOK. BUT NOT AT ALL REASONABLE FOR THE EVENTS WRITTEN! READER DID A GOOD JOB. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS BOOK IF YOU TAKE IT WITH A GRAIN OF SALT. DON
The narrator is not very good. He was a dull reader and I could not get interested in the story. The book is probably good. I have enjoyed all of the books by this author that I have read before.
I really LOVED this book. Great story line, although one we hope is not true - nevertheless it kept me interested throughout and when it ended I wanted to listen to it again. The writer makes you care about the "good guy" characters and you're rooting for them all the way through the book. The reader was a little over the top - but once you get past that and get into the story line, it's not noticeable. Recommended reading.
The plot reads just like any Robin Cook-type medical thriller, and just about as well-written (read: not very well-written). No surprises at all. What brought this audiobook down an notch from "average" is the production. Very overdone. The reader went way overboard with his voices, even going so far as to make the voices tinny and electronic when involved in a telephone conversation. It was like listening to a 40's radio show. Very distracting. But back to the book. Completely unbelievable story line. I also found the quote from Plato at the start of each chapter, even though the significance was eventually explained, to be very overwrought. This is ten discs of listening...I'd recommend another way to spend twelve hours.
