Pierce

The K9 Files, Book 2

By: Dale Mayer

Narrated by: Jack Calihan

Just because helping out is the right thing to do doesn’t make it easy...

Pierce is on the hunt for Salem, a K9 military dog that belonged to Pete, a veteran, who can no longer look after himself or the dog. So, the dog has been handed from owner to owner, until she’s become too much to handle, and now, the law is involved. No one has Salem’s best interests in mind, and they definitely don’t have Pete’s, either. Pierce is about to change all that - whether they like it or not.

Hedi, a young deputy, has lived in Arrowhead, Colorado, all her life and knows Pete and Salem but was helpless to do much when greed overtook his friends and family. She recognizes in Pierce the same qualities that Pete has, and by Pierce’s actions alone, she knows a corner has been turned. She also understands the locals won’t take it lying down, and this means war.

Pierce served his country overseas for many years, and seeing another veteran in trouble makes him realize the fight isn’t over, even after life in the Navy ends. In fact, this battle has just begun. But, this one, Pierce will finish. And he plans to win.

Narrator

Did not like the narrator at all. He was to monotoned. I couldn’t stand it, I even changed the speed but it was still awful

Atrocious narration.

The story is very gripping but the narration is so stilted it might as well be read by a computer.

concentrate on the story itself

it was painful to listen to this story simply because of the robotic monotone narrator.

Horrible narration

Narration sounded like a computer was reading it. There was no voice inflection and no difference in voices. It was hard to tell from one person to the next who was speaking and the flow was often clipped. If this was a real person narrating, then he needs acting lessons. The story was well done, but the bad narration detracted from the story big time.

Not the authors best effort.

The book was fair but not what I’ve come expect from this author. The writing was weak and the narrator left a lot to be desired. I will listen to the next audio book and then decide if it’s worth continuing on with the series.
