The Hanged Man's Song

De: John Sandford

Narrado por: Richard Ferrone

“Hard-boiled computer hacker Kidd and his sometime girlfriend LuEllen make for a refreshingly roguish couple” (Entertainment Weekly). Now they’re back in #1 New York Times bestselling author John Sandford’s electrifying novel of murder, intrigue, and revenge—Kidd style.

When Kidd’s superhacker friend Bobby is murdered and his laptop is stolen, Kidd knows it’s panic time. The secrets stashed in Bobby’s computer are enough to hang Kidd and everyone else in Bobby’s criminally ingenious cyber-circle. It’s up to Kidd and his partner, LuEllen, to track it down, find Bobby’s killer, and save their own necks—because the secrets are downloading faster than anyone anticipated. And they’re far more staggering than anyone imagined.©2003 John Sandford; (P)2003 Putnam Berkley Audio, a member of Penguin Group (USA) Inc., and Recorded Books, LLC

It's Sandford.... but it's not.

John Sandford; Lucas Davenport & Richard Ferrone… or John Sandford; Virgil Flowers & Eric Conger, you can’t go wrong. Even the Lettie Davenport series shows some potential. But this character…. Not so much. For one thing, It’s too technical for my tastes. It tells me more about computers than I really need or want to know. It’s hard to get excited about characters who are basically criminals themselves. There’s nothing to hang your emotional hat on. I found myself not caring about the characters or what happened to them. There’s no seat of the pants action that’s part and parcel of a Sanford offering. The pace is slow and, although the book was only 8 hours long, it felt like twice that. It’s not bad, and I’m sure some tekkies will love the computer geek stuff, just not my cup of tea. Oh I listened to it, because I had run through all my other Sandford books, and if I started another Flowers novel I would start mouthing the words along with Conger. It filled gaps in my driving and took away the tediousness of the drive, but beyond that? I’ve got over 400 audio books in my library and I have second, third and even forth time gone through many of them. This one will find its place on the one-time-only shelf in the corner with the ten or twenty others that get listened to once and never see the light of day again.

Sandford Delivers Again

As good as any of John Sandford’s novels!
Narrator is also exceptional.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for interesting plot twists and characters.

Worth the read!

I love the narrator for John Sanford's books. When you are listening to a book on tape the narrator can make or break a story. Just like in a good movie actors can make or break the characters. I am a big fan of the prey serious but I didn't get into this book as much but It was still a very good book.

Hackerman to the rescue!

Very well written, just as good as his Lucas Davenport novels. A fast paced thrill ride, keeps you thinking all the way through. Great ending. Listen & Enjoy!

Awesome

Once again John weaves a masterful tale of adventure and intrigue! As an expert in Cyber Security his research was spot on! As a Certified Ethical Hacker it's nice to see that John listened to his researchers and was able to interlace the hard facts of truth with a healthy dose of fiction! I highly recommend this to both the Hacker and the lover of fiction! Well done John!
