Dixie City Jam

De: James Lee Burke

Narrado por: Will Patton

They're out there, under the salt: the bodies of German seamen who used to lie in wait at the mouth of the Mississippi for unescorted American tankers sailing from the oil refineries of Baton Rouge out into the Gulf of Mexico. As a child, Dave Robicheaux had been haunted by the sailors' images. Years later, Robicheaux, a detective with the New Iberia sheriff's office, finds himself and his family at serious risk, stalked for his knowledge of a watery burial ground by a mysterious man named Will Buchalter - a man who believes that the Holocaust was one big hoax.More mayhem? Listen to another of James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux thrillers.©1994 James Lee Burke (P)1994 Simon and Schuster Inc.

Best of the Abridged

Of all the abridged novels by JLB, this one is the best I have listened to so far.

Of course the issues with this book are the same as the other abridged editions. It should be a crime to publish a JLB novel in an abridged version. I wish Audible would replace all of them with Unabridged.

The end product of the abridgement is that the story is choppy and has many holes riddled throughout.

I REEEEALLLY wish this one were unabridged. I think it would have been terrific!

Great

Burke and Patton

I skip all Burke of this series read by Mark Hammer and only buy the Will Patton narrations. Does not get any better than Burke and Patton reading Dave and Clete. Even if abridged. Hopefully Burke will commission Patton to re-read all of this series and we can all enjoy the entire series read by Patton. The Mark Hammer versions are terrible

Great Author; Great Narrator

One of the best writers combined with one of my favorite readers made this audition special.

Superlative all respects.

Loved it, always on point and beautifully written. Will Patton makes the narration come alive.

Dixie City Jam

Very slow start. Not my favorite.

Daxie city jam

Horrible!!!!!!! The video was so so bad. No way did the reader sound like Will patton.
Patton is my favorite, but this was bad! I even tried all speeds.

Beware! This book is abridged!

I don’t know why they carry abridged books. Returning it. I do like the voices Will Patton uses.
