These are great short stories but it's not new.

these are great stories true, however you can save your money if you've already got most of the series as these are simple rehashes from other books.

Quite good short stories.

Almost as good as the full books which is quite a feat only reason I give the story 4 stars are because of the length (or rather shortness). Ray Porter pulls the overall up to five stars, as his performance is (as usual) eminent! It is a very good idea teading this after at least reading Patient Zero and The Dragon Factory as some of the references are from those two books.

Good collection to fill in the blanks

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

Filling in gaps

Who was your favorite character and why?

Probably Deacon. More and more I prefer his cool, detached and rational demeanor to the more emotional and brash personalities of Joe and Grace.

Which scene was your favorite?

Well, it's a collection of stories, so hard to say. I'd say the last story was one of the best though.

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

Nope, just filling in the blanks. An enjoyable collection for sure.

Any additional comments?

This is a bundle of stories that fills in the gaps between other Ledger tales. On their own, not worth a credit, but together? Totally worth it.

A must of Joe Ledger Fans

A collection of short stories, some of which tie up loose ends to the major Joe Ledger books and some of which are stand along. The blend of action and intrigue with the usual cast is a must for any Joe Ledger fan.

Great short story compilation

I only listened to Patient Zero before listening to this compilation. I suspect that was a mistake as the last story had what I can only assume is a spoiler for a major occurrence in one of the other books. Even so I thoroughly enjoyed them all and will definitely purchase the other audiobooks in the series.

Love Ray Porter's narration.
