Great book, awesome story, and a great series.

They need to release all of the books in the series as audiobooks, this is the third book in the series.
Jack has to be one of my favorite characters ever hes a complete badass.

Great story, horrid edits and narration

The story is good and the narrator's voice is perfect. What isn't so good is the parts where the narrator recorded sections of the book with a nose cold and the MANY very bad edits: sentences cut off, mistakes that weren't edited out where the narrator makes a mistake, shouts "bluh!" and restarts the sentence.

Possible the worst narration ever!

What did you like best about Jack Kursed? What did you like least?

The story is OK, not terrible, but the narration is hoooorrrrrible. JF over annunciates every freaking syllable. He's very monotone, and to top it off, this wasn't even a finished cut. There are redoes throughout the book, talk about trippy. From the Amazon reviews, this must read much better than it was narrated.

Do you think Jack Kursed needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No !!!!

Any additional comments?

The plot is not that bad, the main character is basically every crusty, angry, old cop character, who magically finds love in a small child, all the while he's killing the people who deserve it most. That being said, his magical situation is unique and lends to the potential for some kick ass action scenes. Cool vampire, with some potentially cool allies - that part I would be interested in reading/listening to.

Fun

Love this story! Wish there were more on Audible! I listen to this book every few months and it never gets old. I'm a big fan of the entire series.

Great story

Ok I loved the story, that being said the narrator is the only thing that could be better the random pauses and him losing place hurts this otherwise great story.
Still loved it though.

Great story not so good editing/narrator

I don’t know why they started in the middle of the series. If you have not read the books it might be confusing.

love this series

let me begin by saying i want all of the series on audible so my only complaint is the director or editor must have been out to lunch. flub line here heavy sigh, repeating quite a few sentices false starts the editing of the recording .is a little annoying. but I love this series so I highly recommend.

Glad

The story is awesome and not typical. I read this book years ago and love the anti-hero Jack and the whole family of characters....need more Buillion books in Audible.

Love the character of Jack

Great book, great characters for the most part. But the audio editing has issues. Quite a few of them. Lots of little mistakes left in and some pretty obvious changes of the microphone position and room in some parts. Plus there's several repeated lines in. Few parts were its unclear whether the reader made a mistake or the writer actually was being redundant. For example Jack calling Victoria when she's at the hospital, twice with the same info. Bit it could be just a viewpoint change, but the narrator puts barely any pauses between viewpoint changes or any paragraph breaks at times. The story itself might benefit from some more editorial input and revision, but the character of Jack carries the book through handily and his the interactions with Tiffany and Erica are great.

Despite these problems, I really enjoyed the book and like I said the characters.

editing is not just for authors

I have read the books and enjoyed them. they are morbidly lite. but the narrator is not the best with the women and kids voices but the worst was the Editting of narration. if anyone wonders how they work to do the narration they should listen. they can hear how many times they repeat the words until they get a section just right.
