The Bone Collector

Interesting book, but it's too bad the narrator sounds like a robot. Listen to the clip to see if you can put up with it for an extended period of time.

did Stephen Hawking narrate this?

not sure how many bad reviews this narration needs before the publisher will remake it

not the most enjoyable listen

the story was great. the reader sounded like a robot. will check out more by this author and hope for a better reader.

Horrible narration

Narrator was horrible. It was hard to get into the story with his voice. I could barely make it through

Great story, bad narration

The narration was, so irritating, that I almost stopped, listening, and returned the book. The story was so interesting, however, that I was able to get over the narration and finish the book which was well worth it. if you can tune out the monotone narration, the book i in s well worst the trouble.

So much better than the movie!

Lisening to the "forensic" details of the series, is one of the aspect I enjoy most. It shows that Mr. Deaver does his research, and knows how to incorporate them in the story.

Fantastic story, terrible narrator

Audible should be embarrassed that this narrator made it through quality control. He almost ruined a fantastic story. Eventually you get used to the monotone.

I liked it

the story takes a while to draw you in but after that initial hump it grips your attention until the end

Narration is awful!

I really enjoyed this story very much but had to grit my teeth at the narration! It was only tolerable because I wanted to start this series at the beginning as I always do. I'm a fanatic about listening to series books in order. I noticed that the rest of the series has different narrators so I continued with this one hoping the future narrators are better!

Good story, questionable narration

I really enjoyed the story but hated the narration just seconds in. The "voices" are okay, but the rest of the narration sounds horribly robotic. I actually thought Microsoft Dave/Stephen Hawking was reading until I realized it was a different person. I think it would have been more interesting if that was so, given Lincoln's condition. So, for my own sanity, I decided it was a conscious effort and purposeful, and decided it lended an interesting element, but be aware it's probably just a poor performance.
