Resumen del Editor

From USA Today best-selling author Brett Battles, comes Insidious, the second novel in his Night Man Chronicles series, featuring Nate from his award-winning Jonathan Quinn thrillers...

That way.

It’s such a simple request that Nate doesn’t think twice about turning down the path Liz suggests. But when he finds the body, he realizes he should have known better. Liz has the habit of pointing him toward those who need his help, even if they are no longer living.

His deceased girlfriend isn’t the only one pushing him to solve the dead woman’s murder. After his best friend Jar discovers the woman’s true identity, she insists they need to investigate. Nate is not as sure. The police are on the case, after all, and if he and Jar intervene, they would only get in the way.

Great

Might be the best book yet in the Brett battles series, great character development, great narrator.

Enjoyed this book - Night Man is 2 for 2

This was my 2nd Brett Battle Night Man Chronicles book and I have enjoyed both books. Well written, good character development, good story lines. Insidious has a non-traditional unravelling of the mystery, which was interesting but i also felt there was an unrealistic aspect to the background/reason driving the story. Regardless, I enjoyed the book. I also found the somewhat supernatural aspect interesting. I'll look for more Night Man Chronicles series books.

good story

it is refreshing to find a book with no sex and no killing!! thank you,

Backstory on Jar

This book gives some backstory on Jar which made the first part of the book interesting. The last half of the book was slower than the Quinn series and the first Night Man Chronicles book. There was less action and more dialogue.

As in the other books with Jar, her computer skills are stretched beyond belief but that keeps the story moving without having to explain a lot. If you are willing to overlook that things just happen without knowing how, then the book is a fun read. If you want to nick pick about reality, then you might not enjoy this book.

The author may be phasing Liz out which is probably a good thing. I'm not sure how much of Liz (his subconscious) talking to Nate the readers will tolerate. Jar will play a key role in Liz's fading away. Like the first book, it is written from a first person POV with the occasional humorous comment to the reader. I think this works for Nate and this series.

Another great read. iNSidious continues Nate's ex

iNSidious continues Nate'sxperiences in the in the Night Man series. As he uses his hobby to secretly try tohelp people.This one is a bit different than some of battles books as it delves iNSidious continues more deeply into the characters' past experiences which have begun to collide with the present.

great story

a great story. I really enjoy the night man/Quinn series. each one gets better. enjoy

Superbly Done

I feel that this is an extremely well done piece of work. In my opinion the characters, the plot, and the narration were all top notch. I also think that the pace of the story was measured and thoughtful. Though this audiobook did not have the breakneck pace or the violence that I often look for in this genre, it still captured my attention and did not let go until I finished listening to this audiobook.
I would, most definitely recommend this audiobook that anyone who is looking for a good book. In the meantime, I am moving on to the next audiobook in the series.

Nate, Jar and Liz!

The Night Man Chronicles are about Jonathan Quinn's protege Nate's free efforts to rid the world of human scum driven by input from his dead girlfriend Liz (who was also Quinn's sister). In this novel Nate is helped mightily by the Jar who is the young Thai computer whiz who is now a member of Quinn's team. INSIDIOUS is another outstanding novel by Brett Battles. Zach Villa does a great job of narration. I very, very highly recommend Insidious!

Wonderful but still a tad weird

I had to dock a star because the whole story happened because of Liz's ghost whispering to Nate. That's a bit wild, and hard to swallow, but both the writing and narrating make it work. I will be glad when Liz can RIP though.

There's also no mention of Nate's prosthetic leg, which maybe should get tired or sore, or cause him to trip or stumble. Maybe the point is that this doesn't slow him down and he functions as a whole person.

Otherwise, this is smoother, less gritty work than Nate did with Quinn. It suits him. Nate has awesome skills, but he also has a whole network of talented friends without whom his life would be much more difficult.

Jar's story is told here, a heart wrenching tale, but one that needed to be told so that she could begin to heal. There is a lot of very welcome character explaining in this book that didn't happen in the others, that gives heart and soul to both the characters and the story.

I can't wait for more.

Disappointment ending

Loved the book all the way through, but less then satisfying ending. Love the series
