Wow, I was in another world when I responded this morning. Let’s see if I can set the record for the number of errors in a single post!

I need to try another Ferrone. I always think of Lowell’s Only series when I hear his name and I didn’t favor his narrations of those – at all.

Deverau’s MOUNTAIN LAUREL may be just the one to try.

I missed the Bank’s, I really enjoyed Kirsten Potter’s narration of the first one.

I prefer something more active generally. Exactly – let words and actions tell the story, not a bunch of thinking.

Richard Ferrone has been an iffy narrator for me but I have liked a couple of his in the past (Jude Deveraux’s Mountain Laurel and Rachel Gibson’s It Must Be Love) enough to give him another whirl.

I’m going to be checking out the true release dates of her books before I listen to any more – the original release date – not the expanded version re-release date – to decide on any other listens.

There were some problems with Beautiful Sacrifice, but the narration really did make this book a success for me. The narrator was able to get across the atmosphere of the different setting quite well. I enjoyed his gravelly voice.;-)

I’m not big on internal monologue when there is a lot of it especially in audio when the narrator fails to differentiate speech from thoughts. It’s one of the things that will make me stop listening before finishing – well, after a hero who doesn’t sound like a hero and not being able to differentiate the hero from the and heroine. Even in print, an excess of internal monologue can drive me a little crazy but at least I can skim.

As I worked with today’s reviews, there were several that caught my attention only to loose it by the end of the review. My only thought when it comes to future listening is that I will try one of the first two of Banks’ McCabe Trilogy books. I read both in print and each earned a B grade. With Kirsten Potter’s narration, they’re good bets for me.
