I had read Tony Hillerman 20 or more years ago, and I remembered being very impressed with his storytelling ability. I don't remember any of the details of this mystery or a single character except Leaphorn of course. But I was mildly surprised to find I have that same level of excitement hearing it this time as I did the first time. So well crafted, characters so well thought out, a master mystery writer. And added to the pleasure was the skill of the narrator. He is by far my favorite narrator. Great combination!

The more I listen to Woodhouse the more I enjoy his sense of humor.
The narrator overall was very good. Especially in creating different voices for different characters. The only problem I had was with a few characters that spoke very fast, like Plank I believe it was. In places completely unintelligible. it came out as a low grumble. I'm not disputing the fact that some speak like that but when it is so gruff and garbled that we miss most of the speech, then authenticity must bow to clarity so that listeners are not left behind.

Wow! Doerr must be ranked as one of the best storytellers of the 21st century! And the language was often poetic. Very few books do I want to read again but this is 1 I think I will definitely visit again. The narrator for me was at times a little distracting. Usually I want the reader to be less dominant just to fade into the background more. But once I got used to his very strong style I enjoyed what his very rich timbre and personality added to the story.

more far-fetched than most of A.C. 's plots

bur thoroughly enjoyable. The characters are so well drawn that they make a most improbable plot seem at least vaguely possible. Ans Mrs. Christie's skill in writing kept the reader guessing to the end.

Though the story is very dated and the beginning of the narration verged on the tedious, as it progressed it became more and more entertaining. i plan to read more by this author.

i enjoyed the way he lead his listeners thru his thinking on many heavy subjects but managed to keep it interesting and light. The music that accompanied his essays was well chosen, beautifully played and thought-provoking. i look forward to hearing more in this series.

this was very much a fun read but it was almost too complex a plot to listen rather than read. i generally listen at the end of my day when i'm in bed trying to fall asleep. Christie is not the sort of writer that keeps you awake with strong emotions. so my brain is not at its peak when i'm listening to this book. The number of characters is challenging and the complexity of the plot also made it hard to follow. had to relisten to many section .i think the natator helped a lot in making it underx'standable.

really enjoyed it. i lived thru the "little dust bowl" and this story brought back memories and thoughts of those hard years.
i also like the way Guidall narrates the story. He really brings the characters to life.

This seemed much more autobiographical than the other book i read from this author stitched together with family stories. The wealth of characters, time frames and geography were handled pretty deftly. But listening to a book rather than reading it makes it harder to remember all the people and their relationships to each other. The different narrators did a good job of enhancing the differences between characters. The way the author managed to tell some of the stories from different characters' points-of-view was sheer masterful writing. i want to be sure to read another of his books.
