Henry Bins, Books 1-5

By: Nick Pirog

Narrated by: Jamie Renell

Henry Bins is only awake one hour a day.

Can you imagine only being awake for one hour each day? Can you imagine having to cram your entire existence into sixty measly minutes? Two minutes to shower. Three minutes to eat. Five minutes to watch TV. And in that 3600 seconds you have awake, imagine that you have to figure out:

• Who murdered the woman across the street? (You suspect it was the President of the United States, but can you prove it?)
• Why did your mom abandoned you when you were six years old? (Was it because she worked for the CIA? Or was it because of your condition?)
• What caused your strange condition where you wake up at exactly 3:00 a.m. then fall asleep exactly an hour later, then sleep for twenty-three hours? (Were you experimented on? If so, by who?)
• And most importantly, what is Project Sandman?

Welcome to Henry Bins’s life.

I really enjoyed this book. I enjoyed all 5 of the am books. The humour mix with crime mystery is awsome! Hope more books from this author is on the way.

Fun!

Left me wanting more, more, more. What's going to happen to Henry Bins dad? Will Henry's condition continue forever?

Full of Action, Humor and Surprises

I thoroughly enjoyed this 5-Book Series. Henry Binns has "Henry Binns". He is awake only one hour a day and asleep the other 23.

After years of experimentation, he has worked out a routine that leaves his life as full as possible. That is until a neighbor is murdered and the man he sees leaving the house is none other than the President of the United States. At first Henry believes he's guilty, but then realizes he's innocent and must work tirelessly to prove him innocent, all within the span of one hour a day.

All 5 books are a continuation of Henry's life and the escapades he's involved in.

I was so intrigued with these stories, I had trouble putting them down. Henry is unusual, intelligent and resourceful. My laugh out loud moments were his conversations with "Lassie", a cat he inherited. It makes you think they truly understand each other.

Nick Pirog is an imaginative writer and I'm looking forward to more of his works. Jamie Renell was brilliant as narrator, including his interpretation of Lassie. A great collection.

100% Unbelievable

The books were entertaining. A guy with a talking cat that acts like a dog? Sleeps 23 hours a day and saves the world.... A few times. Sure. Very well read/performed. Overall entertaining and fun, but not at all realistic.

Enjoyable... Wait for the Pay-Off

Jamie Renell is a terrific narrator. The series would bomb in less capable hands. But he sells it. The stories are clever and everything comes together in the end. The one thing that bugged me was the cat, who actually provided clues that Henry could not have gotten himself, meaning the cat really was anthropomorphic and not just a way for Nick to think things out, as I had originally assumed. It was a pleasant listen while doing housework.

I'm unsure at this point.

Was not crazy about the political jab. Unnecessary. Story is otherwise great... so far.
we'll see

Great story line

Great story line but the talking to the cat thing was strange and perhaps a bit unnecessary.

I have a new favorite author

I listened to the Prescott series, then I found this one

Both series are imaginative, the characters fully fleshed, and the dialogue is clever.

At first I though this one could be any good, How much can happen in one hour a day? I was wrong and I can’t wait to read more.

Unlike any book I've ever read.

I loved this book!!! It held my attention all the way through. Keep up the good work.

Great story

I just came across the title and because I’m a night shifter so I was intrigued. What a story! I like the narrator and all the characters. A easy story to listen to and current to the times. So bummed when it ended. On the search for another Pirog saga...
