Resurrection Men Audiobook

" I liked recognizing many of the places in Edinburgh and that it was a straight forward "who done it". "

" Good read, slow moving but interesting in developing the Rebus character, although it appears I am reading him in reverse sequence! "

" A good mystery my Rankin where by he is able to depict realistically the inner workings of Scotland police department.The novel is slow moving,take its time to build up suspense,but has to give credit to the writer that he has been able to provide a satisfactory climax. "

" I love Ian Rankin; his inspector, John Rebus, is one of my favorite characters. "

" My first reading of Rankin's Rebus character. As detective stories go, so so. Good characters throughout. Would read more if I came across it, but won't seek it out. "

" One of the best Rebuses so far. I'm sooo hooked. "

" A friend gave this book to me for Christmas one year and I loved it. I love the mixture of police story/mystery, character development, and tutorial on all things Scottish. So of course I had to go to the beginning to figur out how our Rebus got to this point. "

" I thought Exit Music was better. But I really like the characters and am not going to give up on DI Rebus just yet. "

" Recommended by my friend Bo White, this was a great read filled with some dark comedy and Holmes-ian crime mysteries. Thoroughly enjoyed it and will probably continue making my way through the rest of the Rebus series. "

" Four star journey - Two star ending. "

" He is a great detective writer. His hero Rebus is a character who is all too human and very likeable. "

" Decent police story, but it never quite grabbed me. The characters never really seemed three dimensional and the dialog was occaissionally a little stilted. It was the first John Rebus book I've read, and I'm not in a hurry to pick up another one. "

" Ian Rankin is a mystery novelist who explores the tangled lives and confusing paradoxes of a modern policeman. His outlook is dark and his protagonist John Rebus lives up to his puzzling name. "

" Good crime thriller read. Keen to read the preceding books to encouter more of the characters "

" A great way to waste a few summer days "

" Great mystery. Rebus is sent to a remedial police academy for misfits. Loved it. "

" My first Ian Rankin and I was very happy with it! Can't believe I've waited so long to read him. Great characters. I enjoy policing stories and Rankin does a great job. The corruption angle was well done and I liked the way things were tied together in the end. "

" Excellent, but I was reading it from the library of a cruise-ship and the cruise ended before I finished the book. "

" This is my favorite of all the John Rebus books. As I have occasion to do, I read it twice! A few years apart. "

" I love it :) With every book I read I like Rankin's books more and more! "

" I really like Rankin's series with Inspector Rebus. I have not enjoyed his other characters as much. "

" Not the best or the worst of the Rebus books. An enjoyable read though. Again, as with the previous two books, DS Shiobhan plays a large part of the book and her gradual transformation into a female Rebus is almost complete. Ending was a bit of a let down, but overall good. "

" Great book! I love the way Rankin can weave muliti plot threads together into a great ending. yet another winner. "

" What sets this mystery apart from so many others is its attention to detail....the food, the cars, the wardrobe, the gestures. Most of the time I find myself skimming New York Bestseller type mysteries, but with this book, you need to take your time or you will miss what makes it notable. "

" I like the flawed main character, John Rebus. He's an alcoholic, divorced middle aged male who is smart, experienced as a detective and clever. It's a good read. Ian Rankin, author, has many Rebus stories. It's a good one to take on a trip. "

" Interesting how the TV series had to simplify this story. "

" My first reading of Rankin's Rebus character. As detective stories go, so so. Good characters throughout. Would read more if I came across it, but won't seek it out. "

" Overrated. How this book beat OUT (by Kirino) is a great mystery in itself? The only plausible reason is that OUT is not really a mystery book.Read Ian Rankin only if you are really into police books. "

" It was very good and Rankin is truly a gifted writer. "

" Recommended by my friend Bo White, this was a great read filled with some dark comedy and Holmes-ian crime mysteries. Thoroughly enjoyed it and will probably continue making my way through the rest of the Rebus series. "

" Oops, Rebus' temper got the better of him and the force got the better of him by sending him off for anger management classes leaving Siobhan handling the art dealer's murder.Rankin has got more twists and turns...and he is just not put-downable. "

" Enjoyed the book, thought the mystery was well plotted. Liked the Inspector Rebus character. My only complaint is that I picked what turns out to be #13 (I think) in the series and would rather have started with #1. My fault. I'll have to find the earlier ones. "

" Good read, slow moving but interesting in developing the Rebus character, although it appears I am reading him in reverse sequence! "

" I took this as a holiday read and I have to admit that I have seen the TV adaptation of this and it's nothing like the book, (but arent they always). But I like the Rebus Character and love reading these books and it didn't take me long to pile through this one. "

" How many stars should I give a book that I was too bored to finish? I'm not sure why, but I never connected with this one. The only other "Rebus" one I've read (Knots & Crosses) was pretty "meh" too. "
