What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Sad to say it was all about the delivery - the narration....What other book might you compare Private India to, and why?
It's a typical James Patterson book - and I love JP's books, pretty much all of the Adult ones. Only read/listened to the Confession series of YA.What didn’t you like about Amerjit Deu and Raj Ghatak ’s performance?
It was quite difficult to understand who was which character and the American Jack definitely didn't sound American!What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
I was disappointed to be honest, first time with an Audio bookAny additional comments?
Story is good, it's just the guys reading it - I am sorry to say.Private India

However, what loses it points here is the narrator. Nothing wrong with his voice or characterisations, it just that at some points he reads as if the novel is written without punctuation! Some sentences are strung together as if there's no full stop (period) , separating them. Also, there is no real pause between scenes!!!
It may not all be the fault of the narrative, the editing may also be wanting, but whatever it is, it lets down a really good Patterson novel.
Still worth listening to because the story is great and you just won't believe the endings! But it feels as if it was not properly produced.
Brilliant, Complicated Story. Poor Narration
