My latest listen was the unabridged version of "London Bridges" by James Patterson performed by Peter J. Fernandez and Denis O'Hare.
I found the use of two narrators to be effective - one for the first person of Alex Cross (Fernandez), the other for the third person narration and first person of other characters (O'Hare). The performers use of accents was very good. The only detraction to the audio was the use of sound effects and some music, which I find more distracting than enhancing.
My sentiments about the book itself seem to parallel those of many of the reviewers on Amazon. It was overly complex, the body count was excessive, and the ending was a let down. In fact, it almost seemed like the author had committed to writing a certain number of words, and came up short with the original ending, so he had to tack on a supplemental ending to meet his quota.
