Angels Flight

De: Michael Connelly

Narrado por: Burt Reynolds

A brand new recording of this Michael Connelly classic - available unabridged from Hachette Audio for the first time ever!
An activist attorney is killed in a cute little L.A. trolley called Angels Flight, far from Harry Bosch's Hollywood turf. But the case is so explosive--and the dead man's enemies inside the L.A.P.D. are so numerous--that it falls to Harry to solve it. Now the streets are superheating. Harry's year-old Vegas marriage is unraveling. And the hunt for a killer is leading Harry to another high-profile L.A. murder case, one where every cop had a motive. The question is, did any have the guts?©1999 by Hieronymus, Inc.; (P) and ©1999 Time Warner AudioBooks (Packaging Elements Only), A Division of Time Warner Trade Publishing

not fond of Burt Reynolds reading!

Enjoyed the story, but didn't care for Burt Reynolds as the narrator. We've listened to the series in order and missed the previous reader!

Burt Reynolds is the Worst!

What did you like best about Angels Flight? What did you like least?

The story was great but Burt Reynolds perfomance was attrocious! I am a big audio book fan. I drive for a living and years ago started with books on tape.Burt Reynolds reading of Angels Flight was the worst reading I have ever heard. His over the top vocal inflections were rediculous and made parts of the book hard to hear. I had to keep rewinding to try and figure out what he said.Reynolds reading made a good story hard to understand and keep up with.Mr. Reynolds needs to understand that reading a book is not all about him, it's all about the characters and the story.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

I am a big Connoley fan and love the Harry Bosch character. The story was great and I enjoyed it.

How could the performance have been better?

Get rid of Burt Reynolds. Dick Hill, Len Cariou, Dick Davidson, Jay Fernandez, they get it. They understand it's about the story and the charachters. They do not try to make the book about them. Reynolds does not have a clue how to read a story.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Yes I would. I enjoyed Blood Work and really enjoyed the Lincoln lawyer. I am glad that the debacle with Paramount is over and I am looking forward to the Harry Bosch TV series if they can get it done.

Any additional comments?

MC keep up the good work. I am a big fan of your stories.

Burt Reynolds IS Harry Bosch!

What made the experience of listening to Angels Flight the most enjoyable?

Good story line, even if not Connolly's best. Will keep the reader intrigued to the very end.

What did you like best about this story?

No suspects till the very end!

Which character – as performed by Burt Reynolds – was your favorite?

Harry Bosch. Burt embodies the voice of Harry as I imagined it when reading all the other Harry Bosch books.

Can't handle Burt

The story was good but I personally can't handle Burt Reynolds reading it. I will never listen to another one he does. The story was very good though.

Good Story

This audiobook is typical Connelly / Harry Bosche fare. It's a good story and will keep your attention.

I would have given it a higher rating, but the Burt Reynolds reading is uninspiring, and I would have preferred an unabridged version, if one exists.
