I am a fan of Dean's I have read about half of his books. Dean entertains and usually includes a strong moral message. This audiobook would have rated 4 stars from me, except for two reasons. One-Narration-The woman narrating the book has a good voice but she is awful when it comes to male voices. Very distracting at first, but you do get used to it. Two-Length-The story is good but it is way too long, Dean could have easily cut it by a third. I found myself saying "there are a few sentences we could have done without" and "Yay, finally disc 15!" Dean spends too much time minutely describing minor characters. One more point I know movie producers make money for product placement, but do authors? Dean mentions Arco gas, Mr. Goodbar, Maxwell House, Dinty Moore, Farmer John among many other product placements. More a curiosity than a criticism.
I enjoyed the premiss of this novel but unfortunately IMO the narration really dragged the story down. A lot of potentially exciting and chilling points but it just didn't come through given the tone of the reader.
