A Kiss Before Dying written by Ira Levin and narrated by George Newbern & Rory Barnett is an awesome vehicle to bring this incredible work of fiction into the 21st century while retaining its autheentic, original magnificence
The narration is sublime, absolutely perfect to reflect the era and storyline and utterly captivating
I read A Kiss Before Dying many, many years ago and enjoyed it immensely then, so to see it as an audiobook, I snapped it up and I was so glad I did! You know when narrators really, really "get" a book and bring it to life? This is absolutely the case here. If ever you want to have a great introduction to audiobooks, here is one
A Kiss Before Dying deserves the accolade of being one of the greatest Mystery/ Thriller books of all time (Time Magazine) due to its incredible skill in turning a simple premise into a deep analysis of the criminal mind alongside the pitfalls of materialistic greed and how far people will go to get rich
A brilliant masterpiece, highly recommended
