Fresh Disasters: A Stone Barrington Novel

What happened to the Stone Barrington I used to know and love? Stone is "forced" into taking on a case he would never take or face being "let go" from Woodman and Weld. The OLD Stone would have told Bill Eggers to STICK IT, but this Stone reluctantly takes the assignment, because he -really needs the money.

Tony Roberts is the reader again and his voice really grates on me. His reading of the story makes me picture Dino as a big fat slob who has trouble breathing.

The book is mildly entertaining with a plot so thin you could slide it under a door.

I've never had to stop listening to a book until this. Even if I'm not totally engaged, I can usually find some redeeming qualities. This, however has none. I can't quite decide which was worse; the writing or the narration. Do yourself a favor and save your time and money.

Fresh Disasters is an undeniably entertaining, mostly typical Stone Barrington tale - but it is somewhat more vulgar and sloppy than other Stuart Woods works.

I finished this book and then wished I hadn't invested my time. Unimpressive is the adjective that comes to mind.

I turned it off after an hour and half. It was like a car stuck in the mud spinning its tires. I guess if you want something very light you might enjoy the book. I though there was little substance.

For the most part this is a fun listen. The plot keeps moving. I would have rated it higher, but the sex is ridiculous and I found myself fast forwarding through it.

While the story is fun, the narration was annoying. The voice was so unpleasant that the characters became unattractive, especially "Deano".

Stuart Woods does it again. I don't think this guy can write a bad novel. This one surpasses all of the other "Stone Barrington" novels that I have read. Lots of intrigue and humor. Never a dull moment.
