Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? Now.how about Audible convincing him to read THE NIGHT MANAGER? ) He is such a skilled voice actor and I don't want him to lose this talent as he pursues more film roles. As soon as I got the notice that HIGH RISE was available for download, I quickly went home from my meeting, burned it and listened to it in one go. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?ĭefinitely. I'm a huge fan of his readings of Diana Gabaldon's Lord John books. The reader/voice actor whom I consider closest in skill to Mr. Hiddleston, he softens his voice and adds a light, non-exaggerated lilt. Some male readers have a tendency to make female characters sound "gay". I'm not really a voice expert, but I love the way he modulates his voice when switching from male to female. There were only a few characters in Octopussy so he was somewhat limited in displaying vocal characterization. Personally, I liked his performance in HIGH RISE more than in OCTOPUSSY. Have you listened to any of Tom Hiddleston’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Robert Laing has always been my favorite character in HIGH RISE. Hiddleston's reading, I've always wondered how he would narrate such a complex, compelling story. I always recommend audiobooks read by Tom Hiddleston to all my associates. Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Tom Hiddleston Delivers Again in HIGH RISE
