Audiobook (All of my entries on The Story Graph are audiobooks.)
#4 in series (I started reading this series in October 2022. I have been committed since July 2023.)
Will I read other installments?Probably Not Maybe Definitely
I look forward to other books in the series. They are short with a lot of action and acute observations from the narrator.
Comparison to others in series:Not as good About the same Better
This was an intense story about an ice pick murder in NYC. Mr. Scudder followed his instincts and found who killed the woman, even nine years after her death.
The narrator was William Roberts. Initially I was upset that the narrator changed from Alan Sklar to Mr. Roberts. (At first Roberts sounded Irish to me.) However, I adjusted and enjoyed Roberts' reading within the first hour. Nonetheless, I saw that neither Roberts nor Sklar narrate any of the subsequent books. The narrator changes frequently. I hope I can get used to each new reader as Mr. Scudder requires a certain type of voice.
