Reginald Hill - back to his best
A marvellous, intricate story that keeps one guessing until the end. Beautifully read by Jonathan Keeble - 16+ hours of real enjoyment that I did not want to finish.

Loved this book
What made the experience of listening to The Woodcutter the most enjoyable?
I downloaded this book around 6 months ago and have listened to it 3 times. Given it's a hefty tome, that shows how much I enjoyed listening and re-listening - each time picking up something different from the story.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Woodcutter?
The imagery of Wilf's surroundings added great colour to the story.
Which character – as performed by Jonathan Keeble – was your favourite?
Wilf
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
A dish best served cold
Any additional comments?
Each of the lead characters are well formed and written with a sense of humour and fondness by the author. I'd be interested in hearing what Wilf and Snek got up to next.

Superb!
out of all the audio books I've listened to, this is by far the best one yet. First class story, incredible narrator who kept me gripped to the very end I didn't want it to end.

Engaging from start it finish.
A surprising first visit to Reginald Hill but I’m glad I went! A nice tale that catches you by surprise again and again brought to life and belief by the stunning Mr Keeble. He could characterise a cereal box and make you wish it didn’t have to end! Great book I recommend you escape to it as soon as you can.
