Vietor's two performances in the book, this is the better. 1) Retribution Clause, written by Ilona Andrews, read by Marc Vietor Overall: 4 Performance: 3 Story: 4 I think I'm so used to Renee Raudman reading for the Andrews' stories that any other voice is starting at a disadvantage. Hendrix reminded me of Tavia Gilbert's irritating voice, but with a more refined sense of dramatic speech. It was rather like listening on fast forward. Van Dyck spoke too quickly with a lack of dramatic sense. The male narrators went a little too far into the film noir style for my tastes, and Ms. As I told my husband, the narration quality was like when you're used to working with a 20 year veteran contractor and then you start working with someone who only has maybe 2 or 3 years on the job – the rough patches that the 20 year man smooths over by instinct the younger pro is still learning how to sand. On the overall, I enjoyed the writing, and found the narration to be professional, but disappointing. The index of stories is below, along with particular remarks. On the plus side, each short story was its own chapter so you can easily get between parts of the book.
