Good short story

It was a lot better than I thought it would be. I will read more and would recommend this to anyone.

ANTHONY STONE>>>

Good story and the reader is really good but if I had a buck for every time the reader said "Anthony Stone" instead of just "Stone" or "Anthony" I would never have to pay for audible again,. Honestly it really took me out of it.

I liked it!!!!

I'm never over judgmental with any of the auto-books. I just chill and listen while at work or doing chores at home. I really liked this and didn't mind hearing his full name, over and over and over and over. I loved the story line and I loved the action. It reminded me of a Die Hard knock-off.

Story had so much potential

It was very difficult to listen to this story. The repetition of the name and surname of the main character was very distracting and irritating.
Narration was okay.

Pronouns, use them

I think this book wins the award for repeating the main character’s name the most times. Honestly, he’s Anthony Stone. Let’s move on

No thanks

Terrible ! Is there really a reason to say characters names, full name, over and over?
