The second crime novel by internationally best-selling writer Eoin Colfer is a gritty and utterly compelling follow-up to the critically acclaimed Plugged.

In Screwed, Colfer adds an entirely new chapter to the adventures and misadventures of Daniel McEvoy, the down-on-his-luck Irish bouncer at a seedy New Jersey bar who, with the help of a motley crew of unlikely characters, solved a bizarre string of murders - including the one of the girl he loved. But people around him continue to die mysteriously, and Daniel is called into action once again. Colfer, beloved by millions for his Artemis Fowl series, has written a riveting and relentlessly paced sequel that is sure to garner international praise.

With wildly inventive imagination and head-spinning plot twists, Screwed is a tour-de-force that rivals Carl Hiaasen at his very best.

Eoin Colfer’s comic wit was on point, as always, and John Keating’s performance was thoroughly enjoyable. Dan’s capability, humor, and heart keep you rooting for him all the way, including ample heartache on his behalf and swells of affection for the way he deals with things. Highly recommend.

This story is first person POV, and he's an interesting guy with lots of colorful characters in his life. The narrator is great with all the voices. I liked the story, but it went on too long. The inner dialog and flashbacks would make a 5 minute action scene take 30 minutes. I kept waiting for the story to end, but the guy just kept going on... Overall, I enjoyed it. it was different than what I usually listen to, but I won't listen to another on this series.

Great narration. Inner dialoge wanders

John Keating created a cinematic landscape that flashed a very enjoyable action film.
In my head it was directed by the cohen brothers, but that’s just my inclination.
The book is funny, smart, ironic, tragic and somehow both optimistic AND pessimistic simultaneously.
Enjoy!

Enjoyed it way more than I expected

It's a great listen though drags a bit towards the 3 quarter mark. It's definitely a bit ribald with lots of profanity, if you don't get bothered by that it's great fun.

lots of belly laughs.
