Members Reviews:

Do you love or hate Inspector Montalbano?

Either you love Inspector Montalbano, or you are fed up with his travails, which don't change much from one book to the next. I'm somewhere in the middle of this spectrum, so it was with some hesitation that I picked this up, but I was delighted to find it to be one of Camilleri's best mysteries as well as one of most amusing in the series. One must pay close attention to the characters, for the story is full of twists and turns. Yes, Montalbano is growing old, a fact he never allows you to forget, but for me, he is not stale. Camilleri, who will turn 90 this year, is still going strong!

Grover Gardner, as usual, presents an excellent narration.

Andrea Camilleri and Grover a winning combination

I love listening to these books so much I listen to each one several times. the story is about Inspector Montalbano are so interesting, funny and charming. Grover gardener is the perfect Voice for Inspector Montalbano.

Not the inspector i've come to know

What would have made The Potters Field better?

Resume the sensible and intelligent decisions and actions of Montalbano. Eliminate such idiotic moves as trying to resolve an issue with Meme by spying instead of simply confronting, explaining the whole story of Lattes instead of simply saying " iwas trying to avoid the guy, not immediately connecting the first mates disappearance with the body discovered...even the slowest reader could discern a poor attempt to drag out a story with protracted tangents

Would you ever listen to anything by Andrea Camilleri again?

yes

Andrea Camilleri and Grove Garden Are Outstanding

It's wonderful to see that Andrea Camilleri keeps Salvo Montalbano, Mimi, Fazio, Catarella and the rest of the of the loyal team of the Vigata police force interesting, and still solving murders. Chief Inspector Montalbano is at it again, this time with his trusted investigator Fazio. Mimi is acting up, lying to his wife and causing tension in the office. An unusual dead body is found in a plastic bag in a very muddy field on a very rainy day. Right away Mimi is insisting that Montalbano should allow him to have complete control of the investigation.
