I just bought the audiobook of Heat 2. Michael Manns prequel novel to his masterpiece from 1995 cowritten with Meg Gardiner.

I returned the Heat 2 - Audiobook, because the narrator is sooooo annoying.
Peter Giles is a good voice actor, but he is the wrong guy for Heat.
In my mind it should be read in calm, measured, cool voice, instead he sounds like Rorschach in prison.
I uploaded a short clip to peertube. Do you think Giles voice is a good fit for Heat?

I found the audiobook absolutely hilarious for maybe a couple of hours.
Then endured it for a couple more.
But it was the enormous sections of Mann simply retelling the plot of Heat using bone-shrinking cliches that eventually forced me to stop.
Quite aside from the... Unique performance, I think it's just kind of a really bad book.
I hope its not too bad, because I just purchased the ebook.
