Abridged Audiobook
The narration for Dave Robicheaux, Clete, and the host of other characters in these James Lee Burkes book is just so spot on. Will Patton does an amazing job of bringing these characters, and with them, the stories, to life. The Dave Robicheaux character is one of my favorites. This is not my favorite book of Burke's, but the narration is always great and keeps me coming back for more.
Burke's characters are broken, sad, real, gritty and at times terribly funny. Being a southerner, some of the sayings and lines his Clete and Dave use literally make me laugh and cry out loud. I thought by this time I would get tired of reading these novels but I find myself drawn back in every time! Burke's writing is colorful, vivid and consistently strong.
