Unabridged Audiobook
On the whole I enjoyed this book. It is an easy listen and not overly complex - working out the perpetrator is not difficult. The reader is not terrible. He has a very staccatoed way of reading, which takes a bit of getting used to. This main issue with his reading, for me, was that he does not know how to pronounce’th’ sounds. 9th May comes out of 9ff May which jolts you out of the start. I tried to work out if this was a problem with ‘th’ sounds in particular or that no-one had explained how to sound out ordinal numbers, and I think it was the latter, though I thought I heard ‘norff’ on one occasion. This was my first Robin Cook book, and I will definitely find another to listen to, I just hope that it will be another narrator.
The Book is good but the narrator is nuts- too fast reading, partly not understandable
What a huge disappointment ...not exactly what I was expecting from the book cover. It’s more a murder mystery and the lives of several pathologists in New York. Nothing exciting. The narrator was short of breath and sounded like an old man with a gruff voice about to have an asthma attack. It’s not the usual Robin Cook thriller.
