The Second Life of Nick Mason
Loved it. I really, really hope there will be another. The only thing I felt I didn't get from this installment was the list of rules Nick lives by. In book one, his rules are clearly defined and support some of the strongest and most compelling aspects of Nick's character. Those rules also served the plot well. Otherwise, this was as compelling a modern noir story you could hope for, and it was awesome!
I did the audiobook version of this from Audible, and Ray Porter is the narrator. Porter is as capable a narrator as I've ever encountered. He does the finest accents and everything about his delivery is velvety smooth. The audiobook was so good, I cruised through this in about 24 hours.
