The first three books in the Mind Dimensions series from a New York Times and USA Today best-selling author.

The Thought Readers (Mind Dimensions, Book 1) Darren's had it easy his whole life. Finishing Harvard at 18 and landing a lucrative job on Wall Street at 21 - all things are possible when you can cheat by stepping outside of time.

Good read

I rather enjoyed this looking forward to reading the other books in the seris. I recommend this.

good story. Ok writing. terrible performance.

The story was different enough to be entertaining and keep me listening. Not the best writing in the world, but far from the worst. Kept repeating descriptions of "the quiet". Also, could have done more showing, less telling.

The performance was pretty bad. The speaker reads in short, five to ten-word bursts. It's like listening to someone sing The Twelve Days Of Christmas while they're having an asthma attack. He did do different voices for different characters, which is to his credit. But the delivery made it hard to listen to. If the story hadn't been so interesting, I certainly wouldn't have made it through the first book.

Great Story

Great story and narration but narrator needed to give Darrins internal dialogue more energy. More-life!

Loved the story - not so much the narration

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Overall yes. The story was really, really good. I'm glad I purchased it, I just don't think I could stand to listen to it again.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The way he talked was just so frikkin' irritating - spewing out a few words, stopping, a few more words. I just wanted him to get on with it for God's sake.

Any additional comments?

I really hate to rag on the narrator as I know it's not something I could do very well, but by the end of the 3rd book I was really, really ready for it to end. I loved the story, I loved the characters, I loved the action and everything else. The mind dimension in general to me is fascinating. But when it's all delivered in 6 or 7 word bursts its just a bit much.

Could have skipped 0, & 1

I thought the creativity in this book was terrific, Darren, the main character learns about himself and will continue to learn more about his powers throughout the series.

I was torn by the creativity of the writing, the slow start up to the story (wishing I had started on book 2) and Mr. Roberto Scarlato's reading. His voice just didn't grab me as someone like Darren's character. He definitely put empathy into telling the story but for me lacked the passion, the "pow" impact, when listening to a struggle or scene with an explosion, or gun shots. I never felt the terror or concern in his tone.
