Death Series

Like this series very much!
The characters r getting more interesting!
I like the narration also!!👍👍

Simply fantastic

Nine books into J. D. Robb's In Death series, and I can't seem to stop my growing obsession with it. Loyalty in Death has a rather fun plot as far as murder mysteries go. A mysterious political group instigating blowing up New York City landmarks and a woman who literally drilled her lover to the wall are just two problems Eve faces. Individually, they are intriguing enough, but having to solve the two cases together causes Eve more than one headache. How Ms. Robb weaves the two stories together is awe-inspiring.

For all the fun of the bombings and a woman who did the murder but goes free, Loyalty in Death wouldn't be half as impressive without that one spark of growth Eve shows. Watching Eve become something other than the short-tempered, bull-headed, mean lieutenant we first meet is why the series is so compelling. I love watching her hesitantly express her emotions to others, recognize her found family, and show the world her vulnerability. I am Team Eve all the way!

I continue to listen to this series via audiobook, and I have to say that Susan Erickson deserves all the awards for her performance. After nine books and the novella, her characterizations ARE the characters. I instantly know which character is speaking based on the voice used, a feat in and of itself. Even more remarkable is that these books contain a large cast of characters, and yet every character is unique and recognizable. Her performance never wavers, never changes. She is the reason I refuse to read the books. She brings the characters to life in a way I never could.

Excellent Story

One of the best of the Death series. J. D. Robb aka Nora Roberts weaves an exciting tale filled with crazy action, love, emotion and friendship. Susan Erickson makes the story come to life with her talented way of giving each character their own voice. I am a real fan.

this was fast paced and well developed story

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

Yes, I would recommend this audiobook, Susan Erickson has developed the reading for each character, where I can follow the story so well that it is like watching a movie, I can see the characters, which also gives compliment to the writer, J. D. Robb (Nora Roberts). She keeps me reading her books because of how the characters are so interesting and each unique in their own way.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Loyalty in Death?

The endings are always the best for me and this one was no exception, because I did not figure the 'who done it' until it was about to be revealed.

What about Susan Ericksen’s performance did you like?

I like the way Susan can give something special to each character and no one is overbearing on another.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

There were parts in this story that made me laugh, especially with Peabody and McNabb and their blooming relationship.

Any additional comments?

I truly enjoy the Death series, when I can't get them on audio, I read the hard copy and still enjoy them, but reading is much easier after getting to know the characters on audio.

Nobody threatens Dallas!!

What made the experience of listening to Loyalty in Death the most enjoyable?

The narration and the great story line.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Well as I was driving I had to sit back a bit but the plot was interesting, the narration added life to the characters. There is also some individual insights with regard to the characters, this added extra dimension.

What about Susan Ericksen’s performance did you like?

All of it. She is the character she is reading. The switches between dialogue is seamless. Its easy to tell who is speaking, just by her voice change. Awesome!!!!

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

Without giving the story away there was a part near the conclusion that stopped my heart.
