Comments on: Theft of the Master http://www.podiobooks.com/blog/2008/07/09/theft-of-the-master/ News from the Staff of Podiobooks.com Sun, 12 Feb 2012 20:41:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Chet http://www.podiobooks.com/blog/2008/07/09/theft-of-the-master/comment-page-1/#comment-328812 Chet Fri, 24 Jun 2011 13:37:11 +0000 http://www.podiobooks.com/blog/2008/07/09/theft-of-the-master/#comment-328812 Just finished listening to this book. Story line: 7 + This is due to several unexplained jumps in deductions, and a predictable ending. (but it was interesting to see just how the guilty person was revealed) Audio Quality: 10 + Yes! a book without all those recaps, promotions, and intro music at deafening levels. To say the least it was a pleasure to listen to a book without having to adjust the volume whenever an episode started or ended because of the music level or somebody screaming about the book they wrote :) Just finished listening to this book.

Some of the story jumps are rough. I kept back tracking because I was sure I missed something. And the narrator mispronounces some of the words... minor issues from a perfectionist.

The chapters are short, but without the standard lead-in the next chapter picks right back up seemlessly. Overall, well worth listening to.

Fair warning: it's presented here not as a serialized audiobook as you've come to expect, but as just a sequence of chapters from the audiobook. The story content is the same, and for those wishing to download the entire book at once and listen, it's probably for the better. But for those who like to get one episode every week... there isn't any "tie in" introductory or closing data as you've come to expect. Nick,

If it is finished, I guess your message/suspension made the difference! Thanks! Evo, did this just finish up or is it showing up as complete because you suspended it?

After a couple of months of trying to see if the publisher of this book was planning on getting us any more episodes, I've given up hope. And to stop anyone else from becoming dismayed by subscribing to a book that sure looks like it's never going to finish, I've suspended it from the site. I'm going to post a "sorry this one fizzled" audio note to the feed later today. In the event that the publisher DOES return to giving us updates (and I'd sure like them to), then we'll get those posted and turn the book back on. So you may wish to keep the feed "active" in your subscription list. Your choice! Sorry for the heartbreak. Luckily this doesn't happen very often. Evo.
