better!
This story evenin better second time around - these books are surely going to be enduring classics in their genre ( what IS their genre? Pendergast seem to tick so many boxes, to satisfy on so many different levels.....)
Whatever, wherever, these are stories to revisit - surely the mark of works destined to be classics.

An unabridged shame.
A fantastic introduction to another member of the Penderghast family.
Solidly plotted and mysterious.
However, the required level of menace and atmosphere is missing due to the fast clip that the book moves at.
This is obviously one of the issues with an unabridged book - we get the plot and story but lose the slowburn.
The abridging is fantastically done - bar for the atmosphere it's difficult to know what has been removed.
Recommended, but keep in mind the above points.
Looking forward to the next!

an amazing story however being abridged spoilt it
why oh why was this abridged? I have all the series and whilst working through the unabridged versions very happily, I suddenly found a book missing.. this one. I searched and found it but it is abridged and with aa different narrator! After recording the rest so well I'm at a loss why omit this book?
it was enjoyable and you need it to keep the flow of the series but it felt disjointed and omitted so much. This book is needed to discover who saved our hero and to link the reaaon why he's on prison in the next book.
Please record this again and make it unabridged

Abridged! New reader! Why oh why?
Big question: why an abridged version only and why a change of reader?
I am a big fan of the adventures of Agent Penderghast and have enjoyed the previous audio versions, all unabridged and read by the same narrator. Until now. why?
I'm not sure if the story was just ordinary or if it was let down by the fact it is an abridged version with loads of detail missing. I'm not sure if this was the reason it took longer to listen to than it did the others even though they are 10 hours longer. Was it because it seemed rushed? Was it because the reader was, well, boring?
Also, having the great John Lee introduce the book, only illustrated what we were missing.
I had to listen to this to continue the series but it was a chore, an anomaly in the series which usually is excellent entertainment. Hopefully the rest with revert back to the way it started.
