Book Review – The Collectors

The Collectors by David Baldacci

The second in the “Camel Club” series, this is a fun read. Like the first one, I listened to this one, and think the narrator is good. The male actor could do a better job of differentiating between characters, but overall they did a good job with the audio, not taking away from what is (in my opinion) a good story. Personally, I like the narrator so well that I think the audio version would be better if they just let him do the whole thing, and skipped the actors, as they did in the first book in this series.

I suspect this book would have the greatest appeal to guys like me – past the mid-century mark in age – the age of the primary character. We love to be able to identify with a guy who’s “still got it” and does heroic things.

Hats off to this one, and I’ll be reading more for sure, though I won’t buy the next audiobook until they get the price down to reasonable – maybe the next one goes on the Kindle…
