Beau Bridges is the narrator-excellent. Enjoyed this novel and have read print version many times to look further into the pieces and intricacies of the story. However, and this is vital, this audio version is very abridged- only 3 discs. I was disappointed as the characters didn't have adequate time to develop and there was very little sense of either Bob Lee Swagger or Nick Memphis. It seems they took the movie, which at least has some visual references and cut it down even further. Bob Lee's honor and intelligence, Nick's eagerness to do what was right, were all lost in the shortcuts. There wasn't even a sense of outrage with the bad guys because it was so short. I would love to hear Beau Bridges narrate the whole book.
