DEAD CENTER
David Rosenfelt ~ BOiPod
Personal Rating: 4/5
Yearly Count: 38
Andy, Andy, Andy. Andy Carpenter. Andy is a very clever, wise guy lawyer ... my type of lead character! :) I will certainly be seeking him out again. Dead Center happens to be the 5th escapade of Andy Carpenter, so I have 4 other opportunities to do just that.
In regard to the plot, I enjoyed it. This being a legal thriller, I was already interested, but the storyline of a double murder with a young college student in custody, situated in a unique town, kept me intrigued. It didn't have any incredible twists or fantastic moments, but it was a good read (listen).
Unfortunately, I did have difficulty getting used to the narrator. His voice was opposite from the last BOiPod I listened to, so I wasn't too thrilled in the beginning. After a while, I grew to accept that this was Andy and continued on. My first instinct was to pick up a book next time, but I think Rosenfelt's character would be just as entertaining if I listened to them as I did this one.

Yay !! I'm glad you liked Andy. I have a few to get through till I get to this one, but I'm starting First Degree tonight :-)
ReplyDeleteSuzi ~ I will go back and read from the start. :) I don't have any concerns about reading stand alone books out of publishing order, but series belong in order! Oops! Obviously it was still an enjoyable book.
ReplyDeleteI just remembered...I have to add Surly on my Recommended By notation.
