GOLDEN PREY Lucas Davenport, Book 27

This audiobook is a prime example of what makes for addictive listening. Sandford moves the plot quickly through the dialogue of colorful, even maniacal, characters, setting a real challenge for narrator Richard Ferrone. The 27th in the Prey series has Lucas Davenport out to prove himself in unfamiliar territory as a U.S. Marshal. Ferrone differentiates characters, including women and children, through tone and accent. He even conveys a killer speaking while toking marijuana. While Ferrone's gruff timbre is less effective for female characters, his pace is in perfect step with Sandford's nonstop action. E.Q.
