Reviewer: RtR - November 14, 2013 Subject: A disappointment I love the story, the characters and mental imagery. They're all great. But I was almost terminally disappointed to find out that this was only the first part of a multi-part set. Having said that, the readers (with only a couple of exceptions) did an outstanding job. I only wish that the complete suite of Lecoq novels was available in audiobook form. |
