The Wrong Side of Goodbye by Michael Connelly

It is hard to believe that this is the 23rd book in the Harry Bosch series. Ultimately I suspect the Audible average rating will be well above 4 stars.

Len Cariou and Peter Giles have narrated most of the series since, and Welliver is as good as either of them. Please do not let the low Audible ratings discourage you from listening Titus Welliver is not as strong a narrator as Dick Hill, but Dick Hill last narrated a Harry Bosch novel since 2008. There have been 27 ratings at Amazon with an average of 4.6 stars. So far there have been 14 ratings at Audible with an average of 3.4 stars. Titus Welliver does his usual yeoman's job of narration, excellent but not outstanding. Again, this book is about mystery and strong intellectual police work rather than suspense. The novel also has Harry Bosch working with his 'brother by another mother' Mickey Haller. But it does contain two very interesting unrelated cases.

The Wrong Side of Goodbye lacks much of the intense suspense of most of Connelly's novels.

To think that Harry Bosch goes to the same Starbuck's that I go to-who knew? Even if you aren't an Angeleno but are a sucker for a good story with well developed characters and just the appropriate number of twists, surprises and appearances by some old friends then use your credit to get this bookĪll of Michael Connelly's books are in my Audible library, so I suppose I am a fan. If you are an Angeleno and enjoy Michael Connelly's love affair with LA then this book will not disappoint you. If you are looking for a book that hooks you from the beginning and leaves you begging for more at the end, this book is for you If you are looking for the perfect marriage between author and narrator, then this book is for you. If you are looking for a book where you will experience withdrawals when you are not listening to the story, then this book is for you. But the fact is that I have impeccable taste in audiobooks after having gone through several hundred titles and I know the difference between a good book and a great book. Am I saying this because I love Michael Connelly's work? Perhaps. This book is terrific from start to finish.

Ignore all other reviews and just read mine
