What would have made A Stained White Radiance better?
An unabridged performance.
If you’ve listened to books by James Lee Burke before, how does this one compare?
Hard to tell because it is abridged - and badly abridged as well.
What about Will Patton’s performance did you like?
I like the voice he give to Robicheaux...
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from A Stained White Radiance?
Too much has already been cut! The story line is hard to follow in many places because of clumsy abridgment.
Any additional comments?
Skillful abridgment should leave the plot intact and characters fully formed. This abridgment does not accomplish that feat.
