Kill the Messenger (Abridged) Audiobook

" Love it. Can there be a series? "

" The story of the messenger grabbed me from the beginning. I was very involved with his character and the outcome. I felt the book was well written. "

" It was a fast paced read. Rich and full of characters that added to the mystery. Kill the Messanger came recommended to me, and I wasn't disappointed. "

" I did not finish this book. Too many characters to follow. "

" Quick read, and definitely interesting. I like mysteries, but a lot of times I figure them out well before the ending (too many authors just don't have enough imagination, or they foreshadow too much). I had figured out part of it, but the WHO turned out to be a big shocker. Nice. "

" I was disappointed in the book. The first chapters where the messenger of the title--Jace-- was introduced were riveting, and I found myself reading far more at a sitting that I should have. But the other characters were not engaging, except Eta, whose brutal murder upset me. Jace spent all of the book terrified, and there were so many questions with no answer about his past that I didn't have much to empathize with. I loved the character of Madame Chen, Jace's guardian that took him in off the streets, and I enjoyed all of her scenes, especially ones with her extended family. But I just could not get into the plot or the other characters and found myself skipping vast sections to get to the parts with Jace or the Chens in them. The ending seemed over the top, also, with a huge movie producer poised to solve all Jace's money problems by making a movie of the events of his life. Well written, just not for me. "

" A glamourised, hollywood style cop under investigation from internal affairs tracks down a bike messenger (caught up in a messy murder trail) before he becomes the next victim. A light crime thriller. Good reading for the beach. "

" This was a great book right to the end. "

" I would really put this one at 3.5 stars. It was a little long in some spots but a pretty good read. The mastermind is completely unexpected. Happy reading! "

" Narrated by Scott Brick - he can make any book enjoyable. "

" very good, fast paced, a good mystery. "

" A good beach read. A thriller that keeps you turning the pages. "

" Very good and very hard to put down. Love the surprise ending, never saw that coming. I have yet to read a Tami Hoag book that I did not like. I think she's a great writer. She knows how to draw you in. "

" I always enjoy Tami Hoag's novels. This is an older one that I hadn't read before. A fun, action packed murder mystery. Good beach read. "

" I couldn't put it down, the suspense was delicious. "

" Very good book. Really enjoyed it. "

" Listened to on tape - kept me driving! "

" A fairly good "who done it?" novel with an unexpected twist. "

" I was surprised at how much I liked and enjoyed Kill the Messenger. The characters were likeable and the story was thrilling. In fact, after the book ended, I still wanted to know more about the characters and how they progressed. "

" Good mystery, action recreational reading. Fun characters. The plot and action move along quickly and interestingly. "

" Another dud. It started out really promising and I dug the main character and his storyline. I don't know. It just didn't pan out for me. The story's pace was not working for me. "

" Tami Hoag is a great murder mystery writer. This is just another one of her good books - very entertaining! "

" Get's straight into the story, it's a bit like one long chase but a good one. Really liked Jace but I can't help but think that he could have made things a whole lot easier on himself had he just spoken to the police in the first place. Didn't see the twist coming. Would read this author again. "

" This book was fast paced enough. I wasn't easily bored by it and that's a good thing. I do the majority of my reading at work and if a story can keep me from dying of boredum than it must be fun. But... that's all it really is... a fun read. "

" I read this book sometime ago and enjoyed the fast pace. "

" Hoag continues to entertain with fast moving twists and turns in a very unique piece. Engrossing. "

" the end could've been better, but the dialogue was great, Tami Hoag has a way of keeping a conversation going. "

" This was a good book. I would have given it 3 stars if the language had been cleaned up. It wasn't a page turner like the review on the book indicated. It had an interesting ending which I liked a lot but I don't know that I would recommend it with the bad language. "

" It's a quick read. I needed something light . "

" Un messager qui a livré le mauvais paquet et son jeune frère témoin sont menacés. Un suspense émouvant qui révèle des facettes du monde des messagers à bicyclette. "

" Good mystery, I had no idea the plot would turn so in the final chapters. "

" A fairly good "who done it?" novel with an unexpected twist. "

" First book I've read by Tami Hoag. Would certainly read more. Fast-paced and gripping. "

" I always enjoy Tami Hoag's novels. This is an older one that I hadn't read before. A fun, action packed murder mystery. Good beach read. "

" This book is set in LA and is a great, fast paced mystery. "

" I read this book sometime ago and enjoyed the fast pace. "

" This is the first book I read by Tami Hoag and once I was done I was hooked. I cannot get enough of this author. The twist in the endings are amazing. "

" Wonderful reading! I did not pick the one behind the killing. I like the way this book played out that the detective had people against him all the way around. Good guy, and good reading.... It will keep you guessing. "

" Very good book. Really enjoyed it. "

" **** Excellent read. Fast paced and good action. The story moves along at a quick pace and the characters are interesting and believable. A very fun read. "

" Good story -- but I fear that the edition we listened to was too abridged. There were some threads that didn't tie together at all -- characters who's connection we never knew. "
