What a ride. I struggle to stay interested in books and somehow, I easily lasted all 37 hours of this masterpiece. In my opinion, this is the pinnacle of writing and the best thing I've ever read. The performance by Simon Vance is brilliant as well

Very graphic which isn't usually my thing, but it was so well told and so wonderfully written by Mr. Ralston that I was hooked early on. There is a lot of praise for this book and I see why.

A nerdy English man playing an African American does not help this story. However, it is still read well. Sometimes you just have to put your own voices in your head over the top of the narration

This reeled me in early and stayed strong until the end. It's a terrifying concept. It was a very powerful plot that could send the superstitious over the edge of sanity.

I learned so much from this after thinking I already had all the info. Little did I know that what I knew was only surface information. The only issue I had with the performance was some of the pronunciation of names. I just thought, we know the names from the songs, have you heard them? However, it did sound like the reader had to do some research or already knew a lot. It was just the mispronunciation that did my head in, but I'm weird like that.

What a crazy journey. I don't know how to feel, and I feel weird for saying this, but, I liked it! Would recommend.

I enjoyed this ride. I think Chris McInally is a brilliant author and I hope to see more of his works become audiobooks. Narrator was good but made a few obvious mistakes

This guy reading it is 40 characters at a time. He's so damn good. Nearly as good at reading and acting the story out than Joe is at writing them

The final entry gave me what I wanted. Very satisfying. Realised I'd been reading for one reason, and we got there. Thanks Joe. I'll miss Logan and the Dogman most.

Joe Abercrombie is unbelievably good. Logan 9 fingers is a wet dream and I'm straight.

It almost reads like a video game, every problem the protagonists solve only leads to the next, greater problem. I cant praise this book enough. It's just one of those books that you pick up and cant put down.
