About this listen

The year is 1931. A boy boards a train to visit his friend in New York. A woman in a jumpsuit boards a train to meet her employer in New York. And the conductor? He boards because it's his job. If it had been any other day, they all would have gotten where they were going just fine. But it's not any other day. The Rail Tracer is on the hunt. The gonzo tale of gangsters, immortals, and outrageous luck (both bad and good) speeds into its third volume!

Characterization Disappointment Almost Redeemed

I enjoy this series. My only issue with this audiobook is the narrator's delivery for my favorite character Czeslaw Meyer. He was depicted as having an adult inner voice and affecting a child's voice when necessary. The anime conveyed this more effectively in that Czes has only one voice. Because he was immortalized at age 10, that voice is a child's voice, It's the attitude that shifts, and that shift can be all the more sinister when articulated in a child's voice. I will grant that the presented juxtaposition, whether the narrator's choice or the director's, was used effectively at the end for Czes' confrontation become reunion with Maiza, as the little boy voice takes over.
