Critiques

Excellent


(5 étoiles)

This is a wonderfully twisty-turny story with loads of interesting characters and connections. The reading itself is perfection.

Scoundrels Indeed!


(3.5 étoiles)

At 1st I almost stopped thinking it would concentrate on seamen but it doesn't. It focuses on how selfish & evil people can be. There are many characters, almost too many. Once you get them down you'll see the big picture. While the sociopathic character is disturbing it was an interesting story with some suspense. While the reader does have a Boston accent it's not thick so you'll get used to it. She does a great job.

I loved the story. The reading was absolutely excellent, best I've heard so far!

Interesting

A contemporary of Dickens, Braddon writes a more conventional story but still interesting in the depiction of characters from various walks in life. The ending was a bit abrupt and includes a small revelation from left field that I won't further describe to avoid a long background explanation. If you enjoy romantic melodrama and suspense, you will enjoy this book. The reader's voice is a little odd, initially a little offputting, but clear and easily understood - which two important characteristics overcome the oddity of her speech.

I thought the novel was actually too long and the plots and sub-plots too many, but it was interesting and it kept my attention regardless. I give it four stars. The reader, Gail Mattern, on the other hand, was great. This is the first book I have heard which she has narrated, and it is my hope she reads many more. Nice and clear voice and excellent diction. The reader gets five stars. Thank you. : ) Eli G

other than that annoying sound in certain chapters, this was a fairly good story. I believe certain parts dragged. I had to stay completely focused or I would loose the story and it's characters. plot is man goal to get the money from the inheritance, unfortunately, his cohort has to kill others in the line before he can have it.
