Rumpole and the Reign of Terror Audiobook (Unabridged)

" John Mortimer, through his mouthpiece of Rumpole, takes on the anti-terrorist hysteria affecting our society. All done in a humorous way, of course, but he is on target about the infringements on our freedoms. "

" There are few things more enjoyable to me than a good Rumpole. This was a good Rumpole. Thus, I enjoyed it. "

" I have always liked the Rumpole short stories, but I find that he wears a little thin in the novel format. Still, a good story, reasonable plotted, and with all the usual Rumpole supporting characters, including She Who Must be Obeyed, the incredible Timson clan, and a variety of other members of the bar. Enjoyable, but not one of Mortimers best "

" A delicious evening's entertainment. Mortimer is a master at what he does. "

" Because, inevitably, one of the Timsons has run afoul of the War on Terror. "

" Rumple is always good. "

" Vintage Rumpole! Up-to-the minute story. Rumpole will go on forever, I think. "

" I've been a fan of Rumpole for, well, decades. This is not Rumpole at his peak, but still worth reading. "

" Moritmer tends to forget some of his continuity in favor of old, comfortable concepts and prose. "

" There's a certain amount of formula involved with the Rumpole stories and novels, but this is a good one - well-plotted and with enough unusual twists to be interesting to the end. "

" I have to say this wasn't as good as the vintage Rumpole books -- which I ADORE. But it was nice to get possibly one last taste of Rumpole. "

" I'm not sure why but I wasn't as pleased with this set of stories that pervious ones. Rumpole was his same feisty and sonnet spouting self, and perhaps even more of an advocate of Magna Carte and the British Judicial System, but it just wasn't quite... "

" Its a good starting point to jump into Rumpole books. Its a good laugh and good look in the world of English lawyers. "

" Surprisingly interesting considering I seem to know very little about the British court system. Rumpole is a very interesting fellow but my favorite character is She Who Must Be Obeyed. "

" I read a much earlier edition of this book. "

" The last Rumpole mystery by John Mortimer before his death. Rumpole defends a Pakistani terrorist. Rumpole doesn't disappoint. One of my favorite mystery series. "

" I never get tired of the Old Bailey hack. "

" Lots of humor and I love John Mortimer's writing style. "

" British lawyer defends a Pakistani doctor accused of supporting terrorism. It was entertaining in a British Perry Mason way. "

" I never get tired of the Old Bailey hack. "

" Another delightful visit with Rumpole, barrister of the Old Bailey, and Hilda, She Who Must Be Obeyed, in post 9/11 London. Always fun! "
