Crusader's Cross: A Dave Robicheaux Novel Audiobook

" Big fun. James Lee Burke rocks!!! "

" Not the best in the series. "

" This was not one of my favorites in this series - more than the usual dose of gratuitous violence on the part of Dave Robicheaux, who seems incapable of learning anything about himself or his behavior as the series progresses. It is also remarkable that he always goes unpunished. Maybe I am just getting tired of these novels and the sameness of the plots. JLB is still a good wordsmith, however, so the overall read is still on the plus side. "

" My first Burke book. I'd read another. "

" book on tape. 3/4 way through and mostly enjoying the plot and the characters. the viet nam segments felt like filler. I like the dark side of Dave R and his on-going battle with alchoholism. Terrific story for the car. I recommend it!!!!! "

" Don't know of another mystery writer who combines such beautiful phrases between violent acts and creepy villains. Will Patton is the perfect narrator for this series. "

" The title put me off as I thought it was a religious reference. It was about the lead characters being passionate about finding the truth. Enjoyed not only the story but the people in it as well. "

" Dave Robicheaux and his brother Jimmie's search for a long-long friend, Ida Durbin, leads them to a serial killer and romance for Dave. Excellent read. Burke is a master at evoking the atmosphere of South Louisiana!! "

" Great murder mystery. Well written with lots of plot twists that keep you guessing until the very end. "

" A great read if you like well-paced, well written mysteries. "

" Just starting this book, but loving it. "

" I really wanted to like this since I have friends who are Burke fanatics. I just never really could care very much about the characters. Stopped reading towards the end of the book, after the crime was unsurprisingly solved. No revelations... just sort of lost interest. "

" I wish I could give this book zero stars. "

" Murder mystery set in Louisiana with great description, atmosphere and characters. I enjoyed the actor's voice and accent. The author has written many books in this series, but I have not read any of the rest of the series. "

" James Lee Burke is always intense and ingrossing reading. Its a bit dark, so I can't read them in succession, but with breaks in between I do enjoy these books. This one was probably not his best, but it was good. "

" Another excellent Robicheaux novel. "

" I always like Burke. He's great escape and writes from the heart. "

" The book held my interest throughout. It is a quick easy read "

" Just starting this book, but loving it. "

" As a fan concerned this maybe his apex, especially with the Robicheaux series. His best novel in my opinion "

" The title put me off as I thought it was a religious reference. It was about the lead characters being passionate about finding the truth. Enjoyed not only the story but the people in it as well. "

" I really liked this book. I like all of James Lee Burke's books. The characters and setting are richly described. Dave is a regular guy hero. "

" Wow! Another great read by a VERY prolific author. "

" I really wanted to like this since I have friends who are Burke fanatics. I just never really could care very much about the characters. Stopped reading towards the end of the book, after the crime was unsurprisingly solved. No revelations... just sort of lost interest. "

" I love Detective Dave Robicheaux. Listened to this book on a Playaway audiobook. Read by Will Patton who got it just right. "

" Not the best in the series. "

" Nice piece of discription and Character development. "

" This will be the last of his books I'll read. Not exciting. Not atmospheric. Not enlightening. Tedious...and badly written. :( "

" Not on of my favorite Robicheaux novels. "

" Murder mystery set in Louisiana with great description, atmosphere and characters. I enjoyed the actor's voice and accent. The author has written many books in this series, but I have not read any of the rest of the series. "

" Once again brilliant Robiceaux novel, each novel by Burke is briliantly and beautifully written. Much more than crime fiction. "

" I don't know if it was the book or the performance that just was not compelling. "

" Robicheaux in some of his darkest hours. I love the way Burke writes but I'm wondering if Robicheaux is getting a little old for some of his exploits. "
