One of the reasons it works so well is that Kobna's Inspector Nightingale and Peter Grant are so distinct from each other, their banta/conversations feel exactly as they should be.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07921082029320139173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1763010932242315938.post-52022759224085263982012-06-19T16:42:23.028+01:002012-06-19T16:42:23.028+01:00Is this still going ahead?

It hadn't struck me until that point that one of the reasons why it works so well as an audiobook is because it is a first person narrative that actually reads like a first person narrative.Jane L Hodsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11433420530170452944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1763010932242315938.post-23879015098683793772012-03-10T21:34:21.968+00:002012-03-10T21:34:21.968+00:00I agree about Grover Gardner who is also incredibl...I agree about Grover Gardner who is also incredibly soothing if you want someone to go to sleep too.Ben Aaronovitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14827057173097312360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1763010932242315938.post-60410672099665242302012-03-10T20:44:50.839+00:002012-03-10T20:44:50.839+00:00Fantastic news!
