The good: Margolin at his best. A very entertaining book. The author really fleshes out the Amanda Jaffe character in this one, I can't wait for the next one in the series. Living in Oregon, I love the way the Portland area is used as a part of the story, making it feel a lot more real to the local reader, and educational for those not from our blessed area of the nation.
The bad: I've loved Jonathan Davis narrating other books, but this one was barely listenable. When he is the voice of the narrator, he is really good. But when he takes on the characters, he changes his timbre, lowers his volume, and makes it really hard to understand him. To make matters worse, it sounds like the recording was done at the lowest possible bit rate, so it's very "bassey" and lacks high tones. I found myself constantly adjusting the volume throughout the book. You might be better off reading the hard cover of this one.
