The follow-up to City of Masks and Daniel Hecht's latest novel, the second in the Cree Black series is a thrillingly plausible supernatural mystery, a passionate love story, and a thoughtful exploration of Navajo culture and identity in modern America.

Members Reviews:

Another fascinating book

Cree Black is a psychologist who studies and assists people experiencing paranormal events. Cree Black and her team investigate these events using traditional and historical research in addition to the paranormal research. This book is squarely based in reality; discussing possible plausible explanations for paranormal events and placing paranormal events in historical and cultural context. When reading, you don't feel like you have to totally suspend disbelief for the entire 17 hours (as you sometimes do with a Dean Koontz or Stephen King). This book is more about solving the mystery using psychology and research than about the paranormal experience - this would be a good book for people who like mysteries but need a break from the gruesome serial killer genre so prevalent among the best seller list. The narration is also excellent with good accents for the different characters. I could not stop listening to this.

Must Read!

I discovered City of Masks and was unable to stop listening. Now Cree Black (and friends) are back in this Land of Echoes. I only hope and pray the author is busy writing another installment in this series as I type this. This book is paranormal suspense at its finest! Kudos to Cree - a fresh, new character on the scene with so many more cases to be solved. I will be up late at night listening and experiencing the paranormal plot as it thickens. I find myself so engrossed in the book that the hours fly by. A must read.

Remarkable Landscape, Characters and Writing

My first trip to NM began with a trip to the top of Sandia Mountain and then an exploration of the remarkable New Mexico landscape. This book follows the same path, but breathed life into the walls of the canyons, the expanse of the dessert and the incredible blue of the sky and pitch black of the night. Hecht is a very talented writer -- his story is well-crafted and the characters he creates are all solid, well-conceived and well-developed in the course of the book. Cree Black is a marvel of intelligence and complexity and yet draws on all one's empathy as she embraces very basic, human questions.

Hecht had to have done a tremendous amount of research to pull together such a believable plot built on the tenets of parapsychology and Native American culture. I'm grateful that it didn't get in the way of the story which is already long at fifteen hours -- every detail chosen builds the story and moves the plot forward. That said, there are some wonderful descriptive passages in the book of the land and the people that bring them all to life that are well worth rereading. The narration was superb. Anna Fields is a remarkable reader who can change her character or the mood as required in an instant.

I highly recommend this book, as well as City of Masks and hope to see more of Cree Black in the future.

Another Good One

Just as I was thinking this book is not as jaw-dropping as City of Masks, I gasped as the identity of the ghost was revealed. Didn't see that one coming at all! This book has more breadth and depth than City of Masks.

Title: Cuba

Subtitle: A Jake Grafton Novel

Author: Stephen Coonts

Language: English

Publisher: Phoenix Books

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 61 votes

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

Rear Admiral Jake Grafton, the hero of Flight of the Intruder, returns as the United States and Cuba engage in a terrifying game of brinkmanship, a gamble that could break the last military taboo and destroy both countries. In Cuba, an ailing Fidel Castro lies dying. Across the Straits of Florida, an anxious U.S. awaits the inevitable power struggle, determined to have a say in who controls this strategically invaluable island. And the American President has an added reason for concern: an Arms Control Conference has just begun in Paris and, unbeknownst to either the American public or Cuba, the U.S. has hidden secret weapons inside the American base on Cuba's Guantanamo Bay. But no secret remains one for long, and when one of the Cuban factions finds out about the weapons, the excitement begins. Only Admiral Grafton, on an aircraft carrier off the coast of Cuba, knows the impending danger. Only Grafton can save America from a disaster that would make the Bay of Pigs look like child's play.

Members Reviews:

'Cuba' excels

In a long line of excellent books, Stephen Coonts has captured another fast paced, involving story.

Cuba

It was a good listen. The plot line was interesting but a bit stretched.It makes you wonder what is going to happen when Castro does die.

Exciting

Exciting, action packed. Jake and Toad save Cuba from the dreaded communists. I guess that's called "nation building?" The book is stimulating, if implausible. The reader mispronounces several words: "Hue City" is pronounced "hue" vice "whey", for example. That grates on me. Do your research! Where's my next Coonts book?

Cuba

Where does Cuba rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

I don't know

Any additional comments?

All of the 4 books in this series are great!!

A great read - much too short

Simply a great book - completely absorbing, I wish it had been longer.

Members Reviews:

An British accent for a story set in the US?

The story is great. Suspenseful.

A British accent is great for a story based in the UK, not in the US. Somehow, the hick or southern drawl is not very convincing when attached to a polished English accent!

A Jeffery Deaver Disappointment

Would you try another book from Jeffery Deaver and/or David McCallum?

Yes I generally like Jeffery Deaver's writing

Has A Maiden's Grave turned you off from other books in this genre?

definately not, I love this genre, this was just badly done

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

The reading was good, but the story was just not up to the usual Deaver novels

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Members Reviews:

Noise? =( Annoying

"A stunningly brilliant psychopathic killer who has skillfully eluded the police from London to Paris to New York...a beautiful journalist suddenly in grave danger...and an unorthodox New York detective whose motive for stopping the killer couldn't be more personal. All are bound by the chains of secrecy, wealth, and crime forged by the cabal known as The Midnight Club." (James Patterson)

I loved the story, everyminute of it. The reader's voice went brought earch character alive. I only have one complaint; what is up with the added music at the end of each chapter or so. It bothered me a lot. The added sounds made it sound cheesey. I didn't like it at all.

Great Narration

This was an excellent book and unlike others the narrator is one of the best for this type of genre. Forsters narration puts me in mind of the Sam Spade type novel/movies which are my all time favorites and i wish he would do more. Patterson is true to form and holds the story together quite well.

Ooookkaaay

Average work by the author; have seen better and worse. Fun read without much effort.

Skip it!

Drab yarn about global organized crime, not helped at all by a very poor, one note performance by the reader. Not one of Patterson's better efforts.

Writer he is, weapons expert he is not.

Truthfully, this is one of the better stories that I have read from Mr. Patterson. I pretty much like just about everything about it. Then why the 4 out of 5 you ask. The one thing that bothered me throughout the story over and over again was the number of times that huge hulking men were being shot and killed by 22 caliber guns. Even if I misunderstood, which I don't believe I did, and they were 32 caliber guns, big strapping "thugs" hit by either of these slugs, even multiples don't go flying thru the air. Most police carry 9mm or a gun similar to it for the stopping power, not a .22 or a .32 cal. If you can get over the gun mismanagement, then this is a great book to "read." If you are a gun "nut", be warned, you may be found in a room yelling at nothing like I was. :)

Title: Day of the Vikings: A Thriller

Subtitle: ARKANE

Author: J. F. Penn

Narrator: Veronica Giguere

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2 hrs and 12 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-16-14

Publisher: The Creative Penn Ltd

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 10 votes

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

A ritual murder on a remote island under the shifting skies of the aurora borealis.

A staff of power that can summon Ragnarok, the Viking apocalypse.

When Neo-Viking terrorists invade the British Museum in London to reclaim the staff of Skara Brae, ARKANE agent Dr. Morgan Sierra is trapped in the building along with hostages under mortal threat.

As the slaughter begins, Morgan works alongside psychic Blake Daniel to discern the past of the staff, dating back to islands invaded by the Vikings generations ago.

Can Morgan and Blake uncover the truth before Ragnarok is unleashed, consuming all in its wake?

Day of the Vikings is a fast-paced, action adventure thriller set in the British Museum, the British Library and the islands of Orkney, Lindisfarne, and Iona. Set in the present day, it resonates with the history and myth of the Vikings.

Day of the Vikings features Dr. Morgan Sierra from the ARKANE thrillers, and Blake Daniel from the London Mysteries, but it is also a stand-alone novella that can be read and enjoyed separately.

Members Reviews:

Great story, grating narrator

Love the Arkane adventures! I was thrilled to find this on Book Gorilla as Whispersync for really cheap. Dr. Sierra starts out in the British museum, becomes involved with crazed neo-Vikings, progresses to the British Library and then off to an island near Lindisfarne to foil the evil doers. Just the basics, no spoilers here. Story fast-paced and cohesive with good imagery.

On the other hand, the narrator has a grating voice and performs the characters weakly.

The Narrator is Horrible!

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

NO! The narrator voice was like fingers on a chalkboard to me. The pitch, the tone and the inflection. She reads in a very emotional (when emotion isn't required) style. It was incredibly annoying!

Would you be willing to try another book from J. F. Penn? Why or why not?

I have listed to another book by J.F. Penn. Different narrator. It was a good book

Great Quick Listen

Where does Day of the Vikings: A Thriller rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

This was one of the better fiction audiobooks I've listened to so far, both in story and production.

Any additional comments?

This is a quick listen that you can get through in a "sitting" or two; between raking leaves and then cooking dinner I was able to listen to the entire book. It's a fast paced thriller without a lot of character development but with a fun storyline that keeps you listening. My wife has read one of the previous arkane books, and now I am definitely going to go back to visit that world again. There were quite a few references to the previous books (with what could be considered minor spoilers but nothing huge) so it will be good to learn what actually happened from those references.

Don't Waste Your Time

I used to enjoy Patterson when he first started writing the Alex Cross stories, but I should have stopped listening years ago. This book, like most of hos recent titles, is poorly plotted, lacking detail, devoid of character development and simply ridiculous. On top of that, the narrator is atrocious. I am pretty tolerant when it comes to audiobooks, but this was the worst book I purchased this year- actually in several years. I tried to give Patterson one last chance, but I wish he'd taken a machete to his manuscript. It would have been a more interesting story.

Publisher's Summary:

Something sinuous in the water brushed against Paige's knee. She jerked her leg away. What was that? She rose to a sitting position, groped around with her left hand. Fine wisps wound themselves around her fingers. Hair? She yanked backward, but the tendrils clung. Something solid bumped her wrist. Paige gasped. With one frantic motion, she shook her arm free, grabbed the side of the hot tub, and heaved herself out.

Paige Williams slips into her hot tub in the blackness of night - and finds herself face to face with death. Alone, terrified, fleeing a dark past, Paige must make an unthinkable choice. In Violet Dawn, hurtling events and richly drawn characters collide in a breathless story of murder, the need to belong, and faith's first glimmer. One woman's secrets unleash an entire town's pursuit, and the truth proves as elusive as the killer in their midst.

Members Reviews:

Very Depressing

What would have made Violet Dawn better?

I tried to return this book but Audible wouldn't let me. I was at chapter 10 and still hadn't learned what was going on. The descriptions of the characters was so graphic and it went on and on till I thought I would cry. The terror and beating of a child was so sad and scary.

Would you ever listen to anything by Brandilyn Collins again?

I have listened to one of her books and it was fine, so yes I will probably try again

Which scene was your favorite?

I only went to chapter 10 and no farther

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Depression

Great story but wish a woman had narrated

Love the twists and turns of the plot!!! Such a great use of changing perspectives! But with so many women's voices, I would have preferred a woman narrator. But the narrator seemed to interpret perfectly and I was able to follow the story so overall, I enjoyed it.

Members Reviews:

First Class Hero

Done more or less in 1982. One of the last in a series that began in the twenties, not written by Charteris himself but done under his supervision.

This is a real hero, in the two adventures that comprises this book The Saint shines.

In a world of despair, sad literature and ugly characters this is the best tonic. I WISH I COULD GIVE MORE STARS.

If you are new to the series try to start with the earlier books.

Peter

A great pair of adventures!

This book contains a great couple of adventures, although I did figure out whodunit in the second story fairly easily. I recommend it just as I have the previous publications.

Members Reviews:

Addictive

Adored it! Fresh, exciting with a thousand twists and turns. I couldn't put it down. Filled with all the winning recipes from rags to riches intertwined with hot but normal sex, some dark comedy set in places I can only dream of...May this writer fill our hungry libraries with loads more!

Didn't need to be so crude

At times I felt as though the plot was going somewhere but was disappointed time and again. It would pique my interest and then fall flat over and over. The sex scenes were far too crude; they really didn't need to be so graphic to build sexual tension or arouse the senses, which perhaps is not what L.S. Hilton was going for. Maybe she wanted her lead femme fatal to seem crude and vulgar as a way to address the issues from her past. I found myself towards the end skipping through the sex scenes as it was just another vulgar explanation of the main character's vagina. Oh and don't get me started on the use of the 'c' word!!! It made me cringe after hearing it for the thousandth time!

If you are obsessed with designer goods, love a vulgar sex scene on repeat and little substance to the plot, then this is the book for you!

Good story, over sexed

Excellent narration. Good story, fast moving and unexpected. For me though there was more sex than I was interested in listening to.

Very poor

A convoluted, gratuitously pornographic, story about an aspiring art dealer who is a very unappealing, ruthless heroine.

Great story ... Pity about the 50 Shades Style mash up which took away from an otherwise great and unusual thriller.

What an unusual book .... Or should I say books, as it seemed as if an intriguing thriller which took place against a breathtaking backdrop of the European hang outs of the rich and famous, had been liberally interspersed with great chunks of an erotic novel. This seemed to me as a rather callous and calculating marriage of convenience to capture two market audiences and sell twice as many books as the main thriller was not well served by this side serving of gratuitous kink which not only devalued the plot but the protagonist also. Both books would be fine on their own, but this fearless and unscrupulous adventuress really did not need an extra string to her bow as was intriguing enough without forcing her to to star in a sex show as well as a well written and very entertaining thriller. Only other niggle is whilst flitting all over Europe with the jet set it is a shame nobody told this sophisticate about the Schengen Agreement as so much of her time is spent worrying needlessly about passports!
