From a Lance fan…

I went into this listen as a big fan of Lance, and that didn’t change for me after. The book gave great details about the ins and outs of cycling at the highest level, but there were many times I found the author in a judgmental mindset. The sarcasm of the writing sometimes seemed out of place. It made a hero out of USADA but didn’t really provide proof that Lance’s claims that his doping was to keep up with the competition as false. It still seems to me and maybe most fans of Lance that doping was so prevalent that it was the only way to compete. I would suggest checking out the ESPN doc on Lance for the latest details…

I have enjoyed all of the Widow books so far. Some seem to end a little abruptly, in a way that could seem unbelievable, but that’s kind of the idea isn’t it? Suspend disbelief while you sit in DC traffic…

More X... less supporting characters

I really like the Orphan X series, have listened to all of them. The past 3 books or so have increasingly added too much of the other characters. Would really like to see more of X and less of the others. Found myself using the 30-second skip a bunch during this one. Hope it doesn't stay that way... feel like the character has lost his way a little

Love the Court Gentry Gray Man novels… the best in the business now, but really want more Gentry working on his own. Hope the follow up to this one has more of that…

First of all, the voice for Scott Harvath is AWFUL. This whispery, phlegmy voice that always sounds like he need to clear his throat or cough. I enjoy the narration of the book and other characters, but the main character being so bad is distracting throughout, especially when he gets upset. Second, the feministic part of the Anthem team was too much. Everything they did was “exceptional”, “perfect” or “incredibly well-trained”, descriptions you’d never apply or say about a men’s team. Just a bad book overall, couldn’t wait to finish and move on…

The Jack Widow books continue to climb my list of favorite action hero’s. Only complaint would be that the book seemed to end a little abruptly.

For some reason this one just didn’t click. From the Claudia and Anna characters to the helping a drug dealer out of honor to a favor… left feeling hollow…

Did Thor Write This One?

I like Scott Harvath. This book was just strange. The secret service agent going off books doing her own investigation of the president was crazy and didn’t have anything to do with Scott Harvath at all. It’s almost like Thor wrote the Scott Harvath portion of the book and someone else wrote the Secret Service agent Campbell portion of the book and then they combined them. And I know this is late but, why change readers away from George Guidall?? I hate the voice that is used for Scot Harvath, this whispery voice that can never yell. Just very disappointed with this one…

I thoroughly enjoyed book 1 and was enjoying this book as well until he decided to bring the kid into the story. I’m just not interested in an assassin novel that has a kid with skills like an adult who’s been trained his whole life. This kid, Michael, was on the training “farm” for 6 months and is now Peter’s sidekick?? Come on…. The children are for saving. Leave the women and children at home and go handle business without them, especially in the assassin novel game…
