All the Flowers are Dying

By: Lawrence Block

Narrated by: Lawrence Block

In his sixteenth Matthew Scudder novel, New York Times bestselling author Lawrence Block takes the award-winning series to a new level of suspense

A man in a Virginia prison awaits execution for three horrific murders he must have committed but swears he didn't . . .

An aging investigator in New York City has seen too much and lost too much -- and is ready to leave the darkness behind . . .

But a nightmare is coming home--because a brilliant, savage, patient monster has unfinished business in the big city . . . and a hunger that can be satisfied only by fear and the slow, agonizing death of Matthew Scudder and the woman he loves.

Good story but lousy narration

If you are a fan of Scudder, this story will work fine for you.
What kept getting in my way was Block's narration. Can't believe
the author would narrate this with such little enthusiasm. Sounds
like he was standing and reading it out of his book. Very flat voice.

Love his writing - not so much his voicing.

Lawrence Block

Lawrence is a good writer. Books have been very interesting. But, he should leave the Narration to professionals.

great story terrible narration

really enjoyed this one and the last one. I wish Lawrence block would not narrate his own books. excellent writer terrible narrator. This Book Sports one of the best endings of any of the Matt Scudder series.

Not the best

I really love Matt Scudder and his escapades but this one was over the top in terror and not very enjoyable. I kept going back to it.....listening in small doses. (Usually I am glued to the story and can't put it down) I got through it but not sure why I felt the need to hear the end. Anyway you might like it....I did not.

I love the Matt Scudder series but this narration

Would you try another book from Lawrence Block and/or Lawrence Block?

Yes.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Matt.

What didn’t you like about Lawrence Block’s performance?

Maybe it was an experiment that humored Lawrence Block but I found the narration abrasive and distracting. I still listened, after I listened to everything else I had in my library and it was great, typical Matt Scudder.
