City of Bones

De: Michael Connelly

Narrado por: Peter Jay Fernandez

On New Year's Day, a dog finds a bone in the Hollywood Hills--and unearths a murder committed more than twenty years earlier. It's a cold case, but for Detective Harry Bosch, it stirs up memories of his childhood as an orphan. He can't let it go. As the investigation takes Bosch deeper into the past, a beautiful rookie cop brings him alive in the present. No official warning can break them apart--or prepare Bosch for the explosions when the case takes a few hard turns. Suddenly all of L.A. is in an uproar, and Bosch, fighting to keep control, is driven to the brink of an unimaginable decision.©2002 Hieronymus Inc., All Rights Reserved; (P)2002 Time Warner AudioBooks, a Division of the AOL Time Warner Book Group

What did you love best about City of Bones: Harry Bosch Series, Book 8?

If you like the Harry Bosch series then you will like this one. The book is written in the same style as others in the series. The story is not as engaging as some of the others but still a good book overall.

What did you like best about this story?

Fan of The series

Did Peter Jay Fernandez do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

I'm not a fan of this reader.

Interesting but sad

well written and good development of the parties. Shows how detailed the investigation needs to be to solve crimes.

awesome book

Good book it keeps you listening to more and not wanting to stop it. I already went thru 8 books in the last 2 months maybe

reader not up to it

A good Bosch novel but could only give it 3 stars because the reader could not do the voices or the semi dark and gritty nature of the series.

Another great Harry Bosch book

I am a big David Baldacci fan & especially like Bosch. This story had a lot of twists and turns and lots of police politics.
A true cold case that Harry can’t let go of. I enjoyed this book very much.

Bosch never gives up, until now?

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Certainly. Harry Bosch is a must read. I read most of the Bosch and Haller series and Michael Connelly does write a captivating story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Always, Harry. Even though he tends to run it alone when he should keep his partner apprised of what is going on, Harry digs up the answers. While this is not good for real life crime fighting, it does make for good fiction crime fighting.

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

This was the only weak point. While the narrator did a solid job, he doesn't seem up to the task of narrating character driven novels. There was little distinction between the characters' voices or suspense in the narration. I will listen to him again but because I want to listen to the book not the narrator.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I'm not going to give away what my headline "until now?" means. Listen to the book and discover for yourself.

Harry Bosch always a hit

Love the Bosch series. Hope it continues on to his daughter following in his footsteps.

Love Harry!

This is an awesome Series and lead character is great! Have 7 of the 8 so far.
