THE KINGS OF VEGAS

A NOVEL

Listeners will be rooting for Josie to overcome, clean up the corruption, and establish herself.

Josie returns to Vegas after the death of her father, who was a legend in the gambling industry. Miranda Raison’s performance is lively, showing us why Josie swore off the family business 30 years ago. Raison describes the competing web of interests Josie must navigate—from relatives to federal investigators to organized crime figures and rival casino operators. She does all this with brisk pacing and a self-assured tone that reflects Josie’s analytical mindset and determination. Raison guides listeners through the family disputes, business negotiations, and escalating threats. Her performance sharpens scenes of conflict and investigation, emphasizing the pressures surrounding the family casino and Josie's future.

Listeners will be rooting for Josie to overcome, clean up the corruption, and establish herself.

    THE SUM OF ALL FEARS

    Part of the joy of Tom Clancy novels is one's belief that the stories could come true. His latest entry stretches that some as we find international terrorists building a nuclear bomb which is used to set Americans and Russians against one another. Jay Robertson reads with a newscaster's voice, crisp and clear with a light touch of drama. However, he does little to help listeners identify Clancy's huge cast of characters, and dialects seem difficult for him as he occasionally slips in and out of character. Nonetheless, patient listeners are rewarded as the plot unfolds. This will be a welcome addition to any library justifying the price of the multi-cassettte volumes.

      SHOTS FIRED

      STORIES FROM JOE PICKETT COUNTRY

      C.J. Box writes about life in wild Wyoming, short stories of people living a rugged life by choice or by circumstance. David Chandler narrates in a rough-edged whiskey voice that suggests summer heat, bitter winters, and windswept prairies, guiding the listener through 10 adventures of men like Fish and Game Officer Joe Pickett. Chandler brings the listener into this strange world where, more often than not, men have to create their own justice. His performance of the economical stories, some rarely seen, is perfect. The tale of the frozen body of a Native American basketball player turned speed freak, her arm reaching through the ice of a lake in a final jump shot, is one of the most fascinating in the collection.
