Agree-aaahhh
True James Patterson style. However, it is a better read than a listen. I agree with the other reviewer, the aahh's are annoying and take away from the plot and characters greatly. Other narrators for his books are light years better.

So So Book-ahhhhhh
I thought the plot was good and characters were interesting. I didn't think this is one of his best. My main complaint was the narrator. I had a hard time listening because he finished his sentences was a annoying ahhhhhhh. Good book-ahhhhhhh. Bad narrator-ahhhhhh. I recommend it if you can put up with the ahhhhhs.

Alex Cross is losing me
First, Michael Kramer's narration was exceedingly offputting, breathless(literally). I've never in all my Audible experience heard such pronounced breathing sounds, which for some reason the sound editors decided was appropriate. The first paragraph almost caused me to quit this one.
Nevertheless, I stuck it out. Alex Cross seemed impotent in this installment of the series. Can't solve the crimes. Can't stay focused on his personal loss. Can't keep himself from muttering under his breath in an effort to build suspense. It just didn't work very well, James Patterson.

What a shame about the narration!
This is one of Patterson's best books in the Alex Cross series. The story is gripping, the plot develops logically, yet with unexpected twists that keep it exciting. Characters are well developed. Just an excellent Patterson.
But the narration! Michael Kramer's narration is both breathless and breath-y. Almost every sentence ends with an audible puff of air that became extremely annoying within the first five minutes. In this book with a number of international characters, it was a shame to have a narrator who was unsuccessful at differentiating accents. In fact, it was very difficult to tell the characters apart. There seemed to be one voice for the American males and one for the UK males. The English accent was supercilious and unlike any real English accent I have ever heard.
The narration is why I gave this great vintage Patterson only two stars. It was a deep disappointment.

Narrator is HORRIBLE!
What disappointed you about Pop Goes the Weasel?
Narrator
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
don't know, the narrator is too distracting to concentrate on the story
How did the narrator detract from the book?
his
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
i'm not even half way...I guess story line is the redeeming quality
Any additional comments?
If I can swap out this book for the abridge version at not cost, it would help. I did learn a lesson...read reviewes and listen to a sample...I'll be doing this from now on.

A clear need for a "Do Over".
This listen was extremely disappointing! I couldn’t wait for it to painfully grind to a final finish and had to stop listening about half way through.
The narrator was not an ideal choice in this instance. The nerve rash that I felt consumed any pleasure I may have gotten from a good story written by a brilliant writer.
Perhaps if a more talented or experienced narrator were contracted this could become a rescue and salvage success.

Unsuspected GARBAGE!
I seriously gave this book patience, but I just couldn't waste any more of my time. I had to stop at chapter 97. I gave it so much credit because I love the author and i just didn't want to dislike anything written by him. This book is simply boring court case, back and forth from defendant to prosecutor. I seriously suggest you to choose another Alex Cross book.
