"McClain a terrible narrator for this series"
Audible's offering of this book not by usual narrator, Dick Hill. McClain is not a good narrator. So Dick Hill's audio would be better than print version. He brings it to life. McClain makes you not even want to listen; in fact, I didn't, and I returned it.
I like all the Reacher books. Fun to really listen to the dialog to pick up clues before Reacher does.
I couldn't even finish listening to McClain. In fact, I started researching why I thought he was so bad. I previously listened to all the Reacher audiobooks which I got from the library. All books were narrated by Dick Hill - and he did an awesome job. I discovered Audible didn't offer the Dick Hill read. Didn't realize there could be different narrators for the same book. Just assumed it was the same as what I got from the library. So...if you're really familiar with a book series, check narrators before ordering from Audible. Luckily Audible is gracious about letting you return books with which you are unhappy.
Wish Audible would offer all the Reacher books narrated only by Dick Hill.
"Terrible narrator - not the usual one."
Nothing except McClain is a terrible narrator!
No personality or good voice inflections. Dick Hill, the ususal narrator is so much better. Had to force myself to listen to McClain and then gave up. Originally listened to whole Reacher series from Library Audiobooks - all narrated by Dick Hill. Did not even realize there was another narrator when I ordered from Audible. Turns out #2 Die Trying, #3 Tripwire, and #4 Running Blind from Audible all narrated by McClain. I'm returning all and don't recommend anyone getting this narrator. Go to the library. Dick Hill really brings Reacher to life and gets you hooked on the series. When I called Audible they couldn't explain why the different narrator and said it was what the supplier provided. So make sure you know what you're getting. Don't base the Reacher series on this narrator. There is a world of difference when you listen to Dick Hill.
"Audio narrator for this book is unlistenable!"
A different narrator!
Couldn't get past the narrator to find out, but I'm sure the content is good. Will be reading it instead of listening.
I've listened or read almost all the books in this series. This narrator is terrible. Dialog undiscernable and monotone. Going to order the book. Will ask for a refund.
