Narrado por: Virtual Voice

It’s the 1950s. Thousands of people every day pass through Smoke Tree, California, on Route 66. The Mother Road. The two-lane blacktop that stretches from Chicago to LA. A few make a quick stop in the isolated, Mojave Desert town. Some stay. Some are dangerous. And a few are downright deadly. Burke Henry is deadly. He drives into Smoke Tree on a motorcycle on a cold, windy, winter day. His panniers are stuffed with cash. Lots of cash. Who is he? What does he want? Why a tiny town like Smoke Tree? Nobody knows, but they’re all dying to find out. And so are some men from Oklahoma. Members of a Ku Klux Klan klavern, they’ve been looking for him for years. When they find him, they intend to kill him! Click the “look inside” feature and read a free sample!

History, geólogy, geography, characters, great story.

Liked characters and history lesiona. Great story. Really enjoy the characters and story. AI doesn’t annoy me as much as it used to, although it makes mistakes. mispronounciation of Levis, for example and lack of appropriate emotion.

Ripping story

Would have preferred a human voice but other than that, I have no complaints at all . Minimum words should not be required.

Desert life

I have been listening to the series and love them all. Great story line and learn a lot of history. Also like learning about desert life.

Amazing

Really liked the series. Good character development Look forward to more. Enjoyed immensely. Reading more now.

Send AI to elementary school.

I hate the deadpan performance. But I get VERY irritated with the AI’s inability to pronounce words. Does anybody check the audio? I would.

Fresh & quick paced story

Great story line wonderful description of the desert fast moving. Unique characters lots of detailed information on the backgrounds.

Great characters

You will love the way the good guy handles advancing bad guys. This is a good read.

AI voice not up to the task

The AI voice would have been more suitable to reading a technical manual for assembling a bicycle. My regrets to the author.  it lacked the emotional intensity in the likes of narrators like a Dick Hill. Also, someone needs to listen and edit the story for AI‘s use of the language. The most glaring example is AI’s pronunciation of a popular Jean name which AI pronounces as “Levee”. His pronunciation of Spanish is even worse. The story is forgivably predictable, but AI’s performance significantly detracts from the storyline. AI technology is coming along, but sick, but misses the mark in this case.
