LADY JUSTICE AND THE WATCHERS Kindle Edition

by Robert Thornhill (Author), Peg Thornhill (Illustrator) Format: Kindle Edition

Suzanne Collins wrote the Hunger Games, Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World and George Orwell wrote 1984.
All three novels were about dystopian societies of the future.
In Lady Justice and the Watchers, Walt Williams sees the world we live in today through the eyes of a group who call themselves 'The Watchers'.
Oscar Levant said that there's a fine line between genius and insanity.
After reading Lady Justice and the Watchers, you may realize as Walt did that there's also a very fine line separating the life of freedom that we enjoy today and the totalitarian society envisioned in these classic novels.
Quietly and without fanfare, powerful interests have instituted policies that have eroded our privacy, health and individual freedoms.
Is the dystopian society still a thing of the distant future or is it with us now disguised as a wolf in sheep's clothing?

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, I get so much entertainment from the stories by Mr. Thornhill and by George Kuch's performances. Each book in the series is like looking in and catching up with some great "friends".

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
It isn't an "edge of my seat" type of story. It is crafted ( as all the Lady Justice stories are) to be entertaining while being informative with a larger issue from life. In this case, technology. Both invasive and beneficial.

Which character – as performed by George Kuch – was your favorite?
I take my listens on as a whole effort basis. Mr. Kuch has performed throughout the whole eight audio books in this series. He is comfortable with Robert's writing style and his own presentation of the characters. That's the major quality that comes through. Another is George's preparation. Listeners should appreciate that too.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
At 5 and a half hours that's doable. But I listened for enjoyment so I did take a few breaks.

Any additional comments?
Robert Thornhill has developed some great characters and built reliable stories around "from the headlines" issues. In this case, technology - good and evil.

There is great interaction between reoccurring characters and peripheral ones.

There are many moments of thought provoking humor, poking sarcastic finger at the RFID / Obamacare Hoax, as example of negative use of technology online.

I appreciate the opportunity to review this title!

This review copy audiobook was provided by the author at no cost. Which I can only assume was voluntary on their part. I am happy to give my honest review of it. I think I'm suppose to mention how reviewing this was voluntary on my part too.

Thanks again, Mr. Thornhill

4.0 out of 5 stars good read

This author is psychic! His story and today's broadcast news had much in common. The author is an excellent writer. His mechanics of good writing are fine. The story of a planned terrorist attack against the USA at a populated sport event is told clearly without verbiage making it a good read for everyone, from the very young to the very old. I was reminded of a Tom Clancy novel about a dirty bomb detonated at a sport event. I like this author's brevity and levity better than Mr. Clancy's lengthy style.

Presently, in America, we find ourselves in a fine mess. I appreciate the author's statement defining our problems and his offer of hope for both the present and the future. I am so tempted to let 'er rip and make my own statement about the wrong and the right of everything happening in my country, but I am afraid to do so. What if it ended up in the wrong hands? That is my conundrum.

Thank you, Mr. Thornhill, for a good read that needed to be written.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Eye-Opening Book in the Lady Justice Series!
Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2018

Walt Williams is right smack in the middle of drug lords, kidnapping, bomb threats with all the usual suspects and some surprising ones in this Lady Justice book. Being a policeman in this particular book he finds himself embroiled in a few dangerous undercover operations in order to capture the perpetrators.

The author has chosen some eye-opening subjects about the drug companies and their influence in our every day lives, drugs being put into our drinking water, food and our children. There were many references to the book, 1984, where Big Brother is purported to be watching us. The answer this book suggested is something you will need to read about.

This book was an enjoyable read with enough humor to take the edge off of its strong material involving the drug companies and the USA.

I am normally a huge fan of the series and the Author, but this book just did not do it for me. I felt preached to throughout the majority of the book and very little was the usual mystery and humor that I come to expect from the books. For the first time ever I was even considering not finishing it, which really surprised me, but I wanted to see it through to the end. I am still a fan though, just not of this particular read.

5.0 out of 5 stars It really makes you think.

(Originally posted on Audible.com) The author provided me with a complimentary copy of this audiobook with no expectation of a review. I loved this book but it was kind of scary all the things he wrote about and how easily they could actually happen. I wouldn't give up my technology for anything but the way he described terrorists and even the government using it against us is downright scary. I know this is fiction but sometimes life imitates art. So it's highly possible some of this stuff could be true someday (if not already). It really makes you think. How far are we willing to go for convenience vs. privacy or safety?

Robert Thornhill makes the reader stop and think. Are all the advertisements in technology worth the surrender of privacy. And pharmacology causing or adding to "need" of medications. Is Big Brother watching? Is it all a Big Trade off ?
Think about it!!!

The narration was well done. The characters were well portrayed. George Kuch is perfect for these books!

“I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.”

Robert Thornhill tackles current social problems in a direct and straightforward way while providing an entertaining story with engaging characters, lots of humor and thought-provoking insights. This book takes a look at the issues of privacy in an electronic age and terrorism. I always enjoy these books by Robert Thornhill and come away thinking more about the future. And he makes the point that no matter what your age is, you have to think about these issues. Awareness is the first step toward freedom.
