![Thirteen Hours | [Deon Meyer]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61vJ5BqRlmL._SL175_.jpg)
"What an epic, action-packed romp!"
Where does Thirteen Hours rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?Thirteen Hours is among the top 5 most enjoyable audiobooks I've listend to.
Who was your favorite character and why?Bennie Griesel, the main character, is easy to enjoy. However, I really like some of the supporting cast, such as police commissioner John Africa, etc.
What about Saul Reichlin’s performance did you like?He has a massive range of voices which he uses to great effect. His pronunciation of difficult Afrikaans words is spot-on, and his performance has a constant energy that sets it apart.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?The way that the entire plot unfolds, as per classic whodunnits, is really the pivotal moment in the book. The reader is kept in suspense for hours, until, eventually, it all comes together beautifully.
Any additional comments?Deon Meyer's books have become some of my favourite reads. 7 Days is even better than 13 Hours, though it is better to read 13 Hours first. His characters are rich and easy to relate to, even if you aren't a South African. Overall, 13 Hours had it all: Comedy, suspense, drama and a great audio performance to bind it all together. I can't wait for the next instalment in Bennie Griesel's life.
