The Unexpected Guest (Dramatised) Audiobook

" I really liked this book. I didn't guess the ending. This book is well written, and I just couldn't put it down. "

" I am a big fan of mysteries and Agatha Christie, but I found this book a disappointment. I know that these are co-authored (to a big extent) by Charles Osborne, and it shows. The story opens with a man entering a house to find a woman standing over the body of her dead husband. He covers up for her. There are lots of twists along the way, but I had the whole thing figured out halfway through the book. I know sometimes you can guess the ending and still enjoy it, but halfway through? I was expecting so much more. Still, it's the best of the Christie/Osborne books so far. Too bad that's not saying much. "

" The plot is quite interesting. "

" This was the novelization of The Unexpected Guest. I enjoyed reading this and as usual I didn't pick the murderer. "

" I would've given this twisting novel a 5 star except that it wasn't very descriptive. The characters and their reactions were really unrealistic which made it hard for me to read. "

" A very lame boring book :/ "

" Very enjoyable! It was particularly fun to listen to Hugh Fraser, best known for his portrayal of Captain Hastings in the TV series "Agatha Christie's Poirot" opposite David Suchet:) "

" A mind bender until the end! "

" eh. It had the ending you would expect in one of Shakespeare's plays, but not a book. "

" I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!!!! The Unexpected Guest was the first murder mystery I ever read and have been in love with them since. This book with give you every twist and turn imaginable! "

" I loved this book a lot better the my first Agatha Christie. The"Who done It" kept changing and the plot continued to build. I had no idea who actually did it until the last page. Great mystery. "

" 'The Unexpected Guest' by Agatha Christie was first Published in 1999. "

" I predicted the ending, but, ya know, some people might not. It was good anyway. "

" I enjoyed this adaptation of a Christie play into a novel. Definitely one I would enjoy seeing on stage. "

" This book was adapted by Charles Osborne from a play, but it reads like typical Agatha Christie - quick and entertaining. "

" It was a fun quick read. I figured out the who done it but not the how. It was a play not really written by Christie. "

" I was the killer in this play back in high school. Great story and a lot of fun to perform. Agatha Christie always delights! "

" 3.5 stars - good but not as good as some others. "

" Really enjoyed this one. The version I read was written like a novel, which I preferred over the play format. Even though I was actually able to guess whodunit (gasp, the first time!), it still had a great twist at the end that I didn't see coming. Agatha never disappoints. "

" Well the book cover is correct and the title; but the subtitle is wrong and the description is wrong. The Unexpected Guest: A Novel, is an adaptation of Agatha Christie's play, same title, written by Charles Osborne. "

" Great play rewritten into a book. It was fun to read and I could imagine it on a stage. "

" A little too short for the plot to develop. "

" Good, I really enjoyed the last two or three pages, though I suspect The Unexpected Guest is better in play form than novel form. "

" This book was awesome, with an unbelieveable twist at the very end! Great summer read. "

" The British Inspector messed up this one because the guest really did do it. I just hadn't read an Agatha Christie one for a long time and this was a short one and fairly typical with several characters and lots of clues. "

" another unexpected ending it gave me chills great book. "

" When I had finished the book I read the postscript that it had originally been a stage play. This explains quite a bit. As a book it is very lightweight, but the entrances, exits and dialogue would fit a stage play perfectly, with a perfect Christie reveal at the end. "

" Adapted from a Christie screen play. Quite enjoyable. "

" This book was awesome, with an unbelieveable twist at the very end! Great summer read. "

" This is a "novelization" of one of Agatha Christie's plays, written after her death. A nice little mystery - I didn't guess who did it until the end. "

" Duh, I should have noticed unexpected guest , but it was still a surprise! "

" Upto the penultimate chapter I thought there is no suspense in the book , but when i read the last chapter i was really amazed. "

" This book was adapted by Charles Osborne from a play, but it reads like typical Agatha Christie - quick and entertaining. "

" I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!!!! The Unexpected Guest was the first murder mystery I ever read and have been in love with them since. This book with give you every twist and turn imaginable! "

" Great play rewritten into a book. It was fun to read and I could imagine it on a stage. "

" Excellent thriller...the twist thrills us verry much... "
