Tom Wolfe has done it again! No one tells a story like Wolfe. As always,l his command of the English language combined with great story-telling and a liberal dose of satire has resulted in a novel that I simply could not stop listening to, even though I really needed to get some sleep. Lou Diamond Phillips' narration was amazing. I didn't feel like he was reading the book, but rather telling a colorful story. I also enjoyed the added production value of Latin music that made me feel like I was actually in Miami. I highly recommend this highly entertaining listen.

I really tried to listen to this book. I hate paying for a book and then not listening to it. However, I had to give up after about an hour. I simply had no idea who the characters were or what they were doing and, frankly, I didn't care. The reader is good, though, which is the only reason I even gave it an hour!
