no just happy to listen and enjoy
Finally! A great voice actor!
This is exactly what you want from an Audiobook; a great story, well-written and brilliantly performed by someone who can actually 'do' accents.
Other books could be rescued by hiring this guy. Damien Boyd's books for instance. Fabulous stories, well-written, but narrated by someone who simply should have another career...
Looking forward to the next one already!
excellent introduction to a new series of books
What made the experience of listening to Whisky from Small Glasses the most enjoyable?
the tone and pace of the book
What did you like best about this story?
the setting and characters - I've been looking for new authors in-between my Rebus and Bosch books - given up with Jack Reacher (too perfect, too drawn out stories) - Jim Daley is a great addition
Any additional comments?
looking forward to the rest
A welcome new discovery
This is the first Denzil Meyrick novel I have read and I am sure it won't be the last. The plot was a little obvious, but overall it was well paced with brilliant characterisation.
But perhaps the finest feature of all was the simply masterful narration. Listening to David Montreath's impressive array of voices was an absolute joy from start to finish.
Excellently read.
Good story, moves at pace but still has lots of clear description putting you right in the scene. Narrator is excellent
