I have been a fan of the Preston/Child duo for many years. Some of their novels have been great while others were simply lacking. This one is my favorite of all so far! We have been teased with the hints of Diogenes for so long, and now is our chance to meet him! I much prefer this narrator (Scott Brick) to Rene Auberjonois who has done other novels they have written. While he is a fine actor, he does not do a pleasing Pendergast voice. The pace is excellent. The reader is not left hanging with suspense between chapters too often. This allows some good stopping points to allow you to continue with what you were doing until this book grabbed you. Everyone I have encouraged to listen to or read this book has done so with very few breaks. It simply pulls you in and makes you want more and more! I have both read the hard copy and listened to the full audiobook and will gladly do so again and again.
