Audiobook Review: Brett Enters the Square Circle by David D. D’Aguanno
Brett Enters the Square Circle is the fifth book in the Brett Cornell series of mysteries by David D. D’Aguanno and after I reviewed three other audiobooks of his, I couldn’t stay away from this absolutely unique character and his hilarious adventures. Although the audiobook version has been released 6 years after the original publication, it was a blast to experience it in this format.
The story follows once again private detective and self-proclaimed unscrupulous bastard Brett Cornell who is hired to find a missing woman at her family’s request. More than that, our ”hero” will accept a challenge that will probably change his perspective on life. At the end of this new adventure, Brett Cornell could be a changed man, or even a dead one.
Newcomers be warned! Brett Cornell is not your regular Private Investigator. He has no redeeming traits or qualities… Actually, he is a drunk, a cheat, a thief, a misogynistic pig and a liar with his mind only on sex, money and how to get in bed with all the humans of the female persuasion, no matter the costs or the consequences.
If you add that he is not the brightest bulb in the bunch and that, at times, he is really stupid, you might cut him some slack and enjoy this hilariously funny novel… But, stay tuned until the end, you might be surprised, pleasantly.
Voiceover artist, actor and narrator Travis Henry Carter returns once again and brings to life Brett and all other characters with talent, intensity and a unique delivery. He reads the entire book using a wiseguy accent that gives it a complete level of immersion. He uses a large number of voices to entertain the listener. He manages to enrich the entire narrative experience with humor and a sense of continuity that is predominant for the whole series.
Funny, at times brutal and violent, but always extremely entertaining, Brett Enters the Square Circle is another great mystery in this series that’s getting better with every new book released.
I post reviews at the author / narrator / publisher’s request. Get in touch with me for more details.
