This is one of my favorite series to listen to. I've only read 5 books in this series and I always like the books much more when I listen to the audiobooks (of the 5 books, I've listened to 3). Season of Death is book 16 in the series, but they really can be read as stand-alone novels.

I think I like the audiobooks so much because it feels like the main character Thomas Llewelyn is telling you the story. Plus I love the voices Antony Ferguson gives to the characters, especially Barker - I can't get his voice right in my head when I read the books myself.

In the beginning, it seems like they are working on two separate cases but you know they will somehow become intertwined. It was fun trying to figure out how they would connect. There's a red herring early on so that kept me guessing too.

I'll admit that I picked up the series in the first place because I love the covers but I've kept reading it because I like the characters. We get enough of their life stories that it feels like checking in with old friends to see what they are up to now. Thomas with his newborn daughter is adorable in this book.
