Took a punt on this book and it had me gripped
I hadn't read this author before but took a punt on it in the sales and was gripped by both the story line and the performance

Reasonable story, 50% excellent narration
I struggled to finish this one. Angus King's narration was solid, Kate Bracken's really put a downer on the whole experience, I'm afraid. Unless I feel an urge to start listening to books about a whiny teenager's angst and depression (where I think her reading style would be well suited), I think I'll be avoiding her in the future. Of course, it is always possible that that was the desired effect - in which case, well done Kate! But I'll still be avoiding her... to be on the safe side.

Great Story
Would you listen to Dead Girl Walking again? Why?
I love Chris Brookmyre's books as his stories develop gradually and he clearly enjoys writing about his key characters. In this one Jack Parlabane is back, almost as a broken man, having lost everything. However, Jack's not really broken - just far more cynical and with less to lose! The narration is great too!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Jack Parlabane of course - the book's main, highly cynical character!
What does Angus King and Kate Bracken bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
The use of 2 narrators to read the main female and male parts works really well in this book as it's written from 2 different perspectives, flitting between both in turn. Both Angus and Kate play their parts really well and both are entirely convincing!
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Jack's Back!

Excellent
I've been a fan of Chris Brookmyre for a long time now, but I'm new to Audiobooks. The narration really brings out the best in CB's turn of phrase e.g. Celebretard and it was great to see old friends like Spammy and Steph return for cameos.

Scottish journo investigates
This is my second Jack Parlybane novel. Not sure I will do any more, too many books and too little time to follow just one character through the same but slightly different crime thrillers.
I like the well drawn characters, plus it was an interesting storyline of rock band prostitution, rock chicks, lesbians, drugs and human trafficking. Sounds rather awful now but did make a good story.
Narration was good although there were a few odd accents, when he spoke one character then realised he was using the wrong accent....Scottish to Eastern European all in one sentence! However it did not detract from the whole.

Not my favourite.
Very good Parlabane tale. Why won't this bloody app auto capitalise.
Great audio performance. One more word.
