Decent courtroom drama

Liked the characters, disliked the narration. The ensemble narration was OK, I guess, but all the women sounded like little girls.
The events leading to the courtroom conclusion were just too convenient.
Too bad about the tragic ending.

I get frustrated with authors who can't keep track of details about their own characters. In one book Simon is 6'4". In another he's 6'2". In yet another he's 6'3".

How can Wildfire be the last book? I wish we were given a little more certainty about their relationship.
Jimmy deserves some happiness.

Not the greatest plot in series; Martha and Charlie were a weak element.

Not that fond of Blyth as narrator--he barely tries to give the characters their own voices.
Overall a great series.

Will wasn't as present as I would have liked. Overall the story grabbed me less than the rest of the series.

I enjoyed every wrenching moment of it.
it could have been better with another narrator; Bray is not a favorite of mine.
Everything is delivered in an intense monotone. Anna and Nikki have some modulation but sound the same as the men.

prequel again. Richly textured, suspenseful, and dark.
Also well read by Troxel, whom I haven't heard that much.

I liked the story; I kept getting surprised.
Brick was perfect for this book, his nuanced delivery upped the quality of the writing. I disagree that you can't do that, and also distinguish between the characters. I know other narrators who can.

I will read the next one and see how it goes. I wish this new review process only required stars. Often I just want to know if I read it and how much I liked it.

because after less than an hour I knew I couldn't listen to 10.5 more hours of the terrible awful narration.
In each sentence the volume went up and down so much that I couldn't pay attention to the story.
While I have some issues with Scott Brick and his unwillingness to differentiate between characters, especially women, he's still one of my favorite narrators.
So I'm skipping to next in series.

So far each book ends with no resolution. This was no exception. To find out what happens in the saga of "The Circle" one must read the next book. Will the next book resolve anything? Will DCI Ryan grow another inch?
Will Jonathan Keeble stop making Frank sound like he's talking through a mouthful of phlegm?
