SPEAK OF THE DEVIL

Paul Michael's high-intensity narration captures the chaos and the drama when a gunman goes on a rampage at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Afterwards, his associate, nicknamed "Nightmare," continues to terrorize New York City. Michael portrays charming, wisecracking PI Fritz Malone with finesse and aplomb. The female character voices seem to be a strain for Michael and are not easily distinguishable. However, his control of pacing, tone, and accents provides outstanding male characterizations. Further, his facility with the various borough accents, as well as his Irish accent, adds authenticity to the presentation. Michael's overall smooth delivery supports this thriller's twists while sustaining its terrifying suspense. S.C.A. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/ JUL 06]
