Any additional comments? throughout this series, joe ledger has fought just about every kind of worst nightmare imaginable and has managed to come out the other side.A man wakes to find himself lying on the ground in a railway station. I recommend it highly, if for nothing else for the performance of Porter. Any additional comments? This continues the series in a dramatic, predictably violent but thoughtful manner. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? Ledger's self reflection is always interesting. Porter has replaced Scott Brick as my favourite performer on Audible. ![]() Have you listened to any of Ray Porters other performances before? How does this one compare? Yes, as many as I can, and I will again. Fact that Joe L is still upright and functioning is always amazing. What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!) Predictable.

Here goes: needed MORE Ghost, more Bunny, more monsters, more story, more nifty weapons. So, I'm going to voice my opinion here safely among my fellow devotees and ask you all to take a step back, stand down (cut me some love). If you've read my reviews on Maberry's Ledger, you know he is my guilty pleasure, and I even offered to take up a collection so team Jon-Ray could devote all of their time to collaborating.
