Where does Psycho Alley rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I would rank Pscho Alley among my favourites, the protagonist, Henry Christie, is a fantastic character and the narrator, James Warrior, portrays him very well.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Psycho Alley?

Near the end, a certain person gets his come uppance, to say more would be a Spoiler.

What about James Warrior’s performance did you like?

I liked the way he conveys humour more than anything else but he is a great narrator overall, in my opinion he makes a perfect Henry Christie.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This book made me laugh, made me angry, made me tense, made me smile with relief . It is a thriller and I think that it does it's job as such.

Any additional comments?

I can't wait for the earlier Henry Christie books to become available, I need to know more about this character before moving on to the later books. Henry Christie is not above breaking the rules to get the job done, he seems to have a lot of issues in his life and this makes for an interesting character (for me at least).

Well written and well narrated.

The best thing that I can say is that I am working my way through all of Nick Oldham’s books. I respect that he knows his subject and I understand his character and I am interested in his story. I am prepared to go back to earlier books later when they are available. If a TV series was made I would definitely watch every episode but I suspect that unless the Author had a personal input I would be disappointed because I am sure that the grittiness and honesty that the audiobooks allow to be projected would be watered down by the PC Brigade.

I’m hooked
