Critic reviews

If there was a Nobel Prize for storytelling, Archer would win

Probably the greatest storyteller of our age

Classic Archer

As expected great writing, very complex plots and very often a satisfyingly unexpected conclusion. Very entertaining!

Excellent

Loved this and was very sorry when it ended, can't wait for parts 2 & 3 to be on audio

Excellent stories but narration sounds robotic

I've read the physical version of this book before but I found this narrator very hard to listen to. It sounds more like an automated text to speech version.
