Would you consider the audio edition of The Descendants to be better than the print version?

Do not know, haven't read the print version.

What about Jonathan Davis’s performance did you like?

His tone and his exuberance.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

All books I want to listen to in one sitting, so, I guess that yes would be my answer.

Any additional comments?

Good book with every emotion known to us throughout its pages. To learn about this family with its trials and tribulations, its loves and losses, brought you into their world and made you smile, laugh, cry, and care. The way he dealt with his personal issues was truly awe inspiring and how he tried and succeeded in his understanding of the people who came into their lives for whatever reason was what each of us should strive for in our own dealings with others.

What would have made Revival better?

A plot or a reason for the Pastor to do what he did

What was most disappointing about Stephen King’s story?

Not one of his better efforts. I kept listening for the King's way of writing in this story but never heard it. Been a fan forever and am sad to say this is not one of his better efforts.

Have you listened to any of David Morse’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No. He gave a fine performance.

What character would you cut from Revival?

None. maybe added one or two more.

Any additional comments?

Try a little harder Mr. K. I know you can do better. Also, get back to The Dark Tower Series. We are all still waiting.

Would you try another book from David Wong and/or Stephen R. Thorne?

Maybe but not if this is how all their writing is laid out.

What was most disappointing about David Wong’s story?

Very tedious, repetitive, and nonsensical. It was hard to listen to and keep up with whatever the storyline was.

What aspect of Stephen R. Thorne’s performance would you have changed?

None, the narrator was the best part of the book.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

None that I could hear.

Any additional comments?

This has to be the worse book that I have ever listened to and since I have listened to many, many, many audio books and have read tons of books, it finally had to happen.
