The story and narrating was first class.

I'm hooked to the Steven Cavanagh books.
What a talented writer. I love crime and thriller movies, now I can read or listen to them.
Maybe some if the books should be made into films.

I did have a good twist in the end.

It was very slow to begin with. The narrator might have put me off some. Definitely not the Eddie Flynn series which I was totally hooked on! So having devoured all 7 books with Eddie Flynn I was a bit disappointed in Twisted. But I persevered and did definitely enjoy the second half. If this was my first book by Steven Cavanagh I’m not sure I would have found Eddie Flynn.

Very clever

The thing is, and I don't know if you agree with me, when an author becomes known for writing brilliantly clever and evil plots, and then his new book has the reading world waiting with baited breath in anticipation, something is bound to go wrong! No need to panic, there's nothing wrong with Twisted; it's crafty, quirky, unique and Curly-Wurly-esque in its twistedness. (I'm just making words up now). If this had been my cherry popping Steve Cavanagh book, it would get 5 stars; but it's not. Mr Cavanagh is a victim of his own success, because, you see, I love Eddie Flynn. I really, really love Eddie Flynn, and I love Adam Sims, the narrator, therefore anything Mr Cavanagh writes that doesn't have Eddie Flynn in the starring role and isn't narrated by Adam Sims, I'm going to struggle with. Having said all that, Laurence Bouvard narrates Twisted superbly. I just adore her accent, and the story line is inspired and unique in a literary world that has seen every twist and turn possible, Mr Cavanagh has managed to carve out an entirely new loop-the-loop. His writing is masterful and eloquent and I listened to nearly 12 hours in just 2 sessions because I was transfixed. The only thing missing for me is Eddie! Assuming you are a normal and rational person and not in love with a fictional character in a book, then I highly recommend you listen to Twisted and give it the full 5 stars. You can thank me later!

It's Okay

Not as gripping as Eddie Flynn stories really, but it's an entertaining enough novel. Hard to find a character you'd empathise with here.

Another fine story

Steve has done it again. Great story with plenty of twists and characters that performed well in the story. Even an appearance from one of the Eddie Flynn characters, nice touch.

Implausible. Not especially well written

Not Steve Cavanagh’s best effort. At times I could barely believe he wrote it at all.

Great story marred by the male voices

The story was fantastic but the overall experience was marred by the reading of the male voices, which all sounded like a variation of Forrest Gump parodies

I really enjoyed the story/plot but the narrator - aggghhh

This wasn’t as good as the Eddie Flynn series but still very enjoyable - if you can get past the horrible voices of the narrator.

I’ve no idea why anyone thought this narrator was a good fit for this book. I hate to be so critical but it really did spoil the book for me.

Great story but...

Was hoping Eddy Flynn would be central to this, sadly not a single appearance. I found the story full of twists and turns and engaging, but the narration was a big disappointment. The characters were a little one dimensional so it was difficult to care one way or the other what happened to them. However, the story itself was worth it.
