The Oxford Murders Audiobook

" The Oxford murders by Guillermo Mart "

" Interesting semi-intellectual mathematicians become CSI / Law&Order - I loved it! Crime fiction might become my new favorite genre. "

" For someone who hates math and logic, this book managed to make it interesting by setting it within a murder mystery context. I feel smarter after reading it! "

" I loved the intersection of detective fiction and mathematics. I think I like it because it's a bit like Lewis. "

" An OK story. Predictable and obvious in spots but liked the exploration of logic within the Mathematical process. "

" Nyah... too much Maths for more than 2 Stars... but engaging enough to give it 3 Stars. "

" Short brainy British mystery set in a university - what's not to like? "

" Interesting premise but I am a bit disappointed overall. "

" Mathematicians solving murders...just like Numb3rs! "

" Not really as exciting as it sounds. "

" Meh . . . the ending is not worth the read. "

" I did not enjoy this book and the story was not compelling. Sometimes it just got lost in mathematical details that made me lose interest. By the time the story was winding down, I didn't really care who the murderer was. "

" Awkwardly translated, didn't really go anywhere. At least it was short. "

" Very cleverly constructed and suspenseful with some creative "red herrings" thrown in to mislead the reader. Does anybody know what the four symbols on the front book cover mean? "

" A quick and compelling read; the math theories, while entertaining, took a bit too much time in the text. The red herring was fairly skillfully done, and kept my attention away from the actual murderer for quite some time. "

" Am getting quite impressed with the south american crime writers -- not a big whodunit, but with a lovely latin view of academic britain "

" This book is a clever synthisis of mathematics and murder mystery set in Oxford, England. It is very well written and as with many good murder mysteries has a twist at the end. It is well worth reading. "

" A murder mystery that tries to be clever, while trading in on the cachet of its Oxford associations. A failure on all counts, with a ludicrous denouement that beggars credibility. Save your money. "

" A very fine mystery, intellectually satisfying with well-developed characters. "

" Found this lying around our flat in London and took it on a trip to read on the plane. A decent enough mystery, with some (surprisingly) interesting discussion of theoretical and historical mathematics. "

" Niente di speciale. Mi è parso di leggere un episodio del tenente Colombo... Un giallo per gli amanti del genere.<br/> "

" A rather unique murder mystery. Very academic in nature; the lengthy mathematical discussions were somewhat overwhelming to me, someone who majored in english in college. A rather quick read. Way better than the movie based on it. "

" There are some very good bits of writing here - I particularly liked the description concerning what happens to the body after death... morbid? Perhaps. "
