The Killing Moon (Abridged): A Novel Audiobook

" Another really good character story by Hogan with enough twists and turns to keep it interesting. It's not always pretty, but Hogan sucks you in and makes you unable to put the book down. Love what he's written here. "

" I just don't think you can do much with whodunnits. They are like working a jig-saw puzzle, maybe. Satisfying, but not really provocative or thoughtful. "

" This book is really nothing exciting. It is your everyday cop novel, but nothing really happened. I kept wanting to be drawn into the story. It just never happened. "

" Feels like the novel is set in the hillbilly backwoods SOUTH, yet it is set in Massachusetts. Okay storyline but Prince of Thieves owns this book "

" Not as good as "the prince of thieves," but it's fast paced and sharp with an evil twist at the end. "

" fast read. good twist. "

" Good book! It's the lone gunman from the old westerns transplanted to Massachusetts, with a monster lurking in the woods, lots of sad characters. A bang up ending with a little bit of the Maltese Falcon feel to it. "

" I wasn't too thrilled with my choice of this book at the beginning, but boy did it grow on me. Just when I thought that the author should get to the point, he did, love obedient authors lol. I will definitely read more of his work. "

" not the best writing but the who-done-it suspense made it worthwhile for me to finish it. "

" I would have given this book one star, but the last 100 pages bumped it up to a two star. I thought about giving up so many times, but I was determined to finish. I might give him another try. "

" Fast paced, fun. "

" Meticulous construction gives way to a truly inane climax. "

" LAME. I kept telling myself it would get better and more interesting, but it didn't. No memorable characters, I found the number of players overwhelming actually,I could not remember who was who. It was just, I don't know ? Did I say lame? Lets go with that. "

" It's okay...but a big letdown after the terrific "Prince of Theives"... "

" A very good read. Author develops his characters so that you get to know them and are more interested in them with as the plot develops just under the surface. Nothing outlandish, but does have surprises. "

" I really like that Chuck Hogan's craft has me crossing into genres that don't usually draw me. He's a great storyteller with a fantastic ability with simile and description. "

" Interesting POV, read like a movie. At times it was a bit distracting, but the story was so good - I couldn't stop reading. "

" This is my first book by Chuck Hogan, but it certainly won't be my last. Chuck used to be a clerk in a video store until the success of his first novel. "

" good book... had lots of turns and i didn't expect the final twist. definitely want to check more out by him. enjoy the massachusetts setting. "

" After 13 chapters I got bored. Too much description, not enough action. Plus after 13 chapters there was no body. Wasn't this supposed to be a murder mystery? "

" Entertaining mystery novel. "

" it was ok...to much swearing for my liking but the chapters are really short so you can get 2 in before lights out. "

" It's a murder mystery. I like that the start of the book is confusing. As it goes along your learn more and more about each person. It forces you to pay attention, so later on things make sense. I will be reading everything Hogan writes. "

" This took me a long time to get into and the story was quite fractured, with lots of different characters and story lines combining. It was reasonably enjoyable as crime books go, but I wouldn't rush out to read another Chuck Hogan novel as this book did not really capture my imagination. "

" It's due tomorrow... maybe I can bully through 300 pages tonight. Prove whether it's a page-turner! With a small "donation" to the public library it's done. Light, easy, and hey -Stephen King liked it! Predictable but okay. "

" I liked this book. It's very dark, with characters so flawed they made me cringe. "

" I wasn't really impressed with it. The first half of the book seemed confusing. It kept jumping back and forth from character to character. The second half was much better and pulled everything into a tightly knit package. "

" Not as good as "the prince of thieves," but it's fast paced and sharp with an evil twist at the end. "
