    Capitol Coven by Peter E. Abresch
    Fiction

    Click the arrow below to listen to the first episode of this free audio book:

    Ninety percent of the federal laws, resolutions, and appropriations pass or fail in the U. S. Congress by a handful of votes. When Alexander Judd stumbles upon the possibility of collusion in these votes, and sets out to investigate it, he quickly finds himself kidnapped by a trash-talking Elfy Cane. Who is wanted for murder. Cut the guy's heart out. Then, linked to Elfy by association, Alex finds the police are now after him. What more could a slightly out-of-shape widower ask? Well, falling in love with her wasn't one of them. Nor was having her fall into the clutches of the shadowy Church of the Dark Light, a secret coven meeting in the great building atop Jenkins Heights. Known today as Capitol Hill.

    I know I'm not shit hot at writing english, but any idiot should see that is totally beside the point here. I assure you my Norwegian and German writing are better, but I guess it's beyond your competence to value that so I guess we're better off without... POS

    It?s easy to criticize genre fiction as cliché or played, however labored the grammar of the critic may be. Genre fiction, by its very nature, is formulaic and methodic, whether written by an American or created in some other country. One doesn?t read or listen to a story like this to be overwhelmed by complexities. Capitol Coven is like warm fleece under a moonless sky. It?s comforting, and sometimes that is what one is seeking in their next read. The story is a fun ride with just enough twists, turns and topples to keep the pages turning? or the I-Pod shuffling as it were. There is no doubt it is a raw read, as are many in this FREE format. That someone would complain about a performance on a book they downloaded for absolutely nothing is absurd. But raw as it is, the listener quickly becomes accustomed to the delivery and gets to the business of enjoying the story. The characters are well drawn, the scenes move along nicely and the plot executes with timing and flair. Maybe the preceding foreigner should partake in an English class in the morning and take etiquette lessons after tea. After all, there are no substitutes for spelling and grammar skills, manners and courtesy.

    This is simply not good enough to waist ones time on. The narrator tries to do different voices on the cast, but only have three different voices (normal, mickey mouse with a throat infection and the last one sounds like someone dying from cancer), so it gets very confusing since there is a lot more than three persons in the cast but only three identical voices. The story is total crap. We have heard this story a million times before. This is SO American. You find a safe recipe used millions of times before and just populate it with a bunch of typecasts and you're home free...booooooring and predictable as he#¤% Heard it before, seen it before. Soft man meats tough woman, and they hate each others guts. So it's just a question of time before they fu#¤&. Them two and an oldtimer pig alone against the world. The rest is just a matter of wading through it, you always know what's up next long time before it happens. Grand finale takes place in a devil worshipers den on capitol hill, with sneaks and witchcraft, sex orgies, human sacrifice and the whole nine yards.... Believe me, you don't wanna waist your time on this garbage. POS This author should seek a job in the American TV series factories. They need crap like this (they obviously never shoot anything else as this kind of boring and highly predictable shit).
