Does well as far as filling the holes of the main story . I’m glad I took the time to absorb this book

Joe Ledger Fans will Need This

I don't normally review anthologies of short stories. My rules are mine to break. Really the only reason that that I am is to satisfy my own curiosity, and to learn more about what drives Joe Ledger and makes him what he is today.

There really isn't a whole lot to review here. Joe ledger story short stories, full of everything you would expect from Jonathan Maberry. If you are a true and I mean true Joe Ledger fan you have already picked this title up or if you're like me you been humming and hawing and waiting for the right time. Well the time has come.

One story is a simple introduction to Joe Ledger, much of this we know already is we listened to Patient Zero, still good to hear. One story intertwines with Patient Zero and is yet separate. One story gives an introduction to my favorite literary canine, Ghost. Another twists together, what I though were parallel universes, the Pine Deep series with the DMS. And the last really gets you inside Ledger's head.

Missing Scenes shouldn't be missed!

If you could sum up Joe Ledger: The Missing Files in three words, what would they be?

Intriguing, riveting, intense

What was one of the most memorable moments of Joe Ledger: The Missing Files?

You cannot and will not forget Joe Ledger visiting Pine Deep and running into a couple of our faves from that series. And when he finally catches up to Amirah, the scene that plays out is quite interesting.

What about Ray Porter???s performance did you like?

Ray Porter has this dry, sarcastic tone when he's voicing Ledger, yet when he voices Top and Bunny, it's completely different. He does each character justice in inflection and attitude.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

There were a couple of scenes that had me laughing. Top asking Ledger why the old guy always had to run up and down the stairs....trust me, you have to listen.

Any additional comments?

The combination of Jonathan Maberry's writing and Ray Porter's narration combine for an awesome set of short stories. It helps if you've read at least one or two books in the Ledger series, but if I didn't know what was going on, this would certainly make me want to take a peek.

Darn... Have them already...

Just glanced at description... Love Mayberry/Porter combo... Ledger is such a great character... But I have the single audios that make up this collection. It was a fine re-listen... But I hate to repurchase what I already have.

I am glad I found Mr. Maberry

Incredibly well written, and performed. Surprising plots I would have never thought of. A new favorite author for me.

great listen for Ledger fans!

Entertaining stories as always. Ray Porter is just the best narrator!!! Continually impressed with his performances!

Dog days

DD is worth the cost of the book alone, Ghost's backstory is great. Bravo Maberry

Worth the Listen!

Excellent tie up of loose ends of other Joe Ledger books as well as several surprising & independent short stories. Well worth the listen. I highly recommend this book to those who enjoy the Joe Ledger books!

Joe ledger

This is an amazing revenge based man hunt story. there is a lot of violence, but I didn't mind because it was necessary to the action filled story.

great back ground

You'll love the story of Leger meeting his dog. The other stories Cherry On the cake
