From AudioFile
This novel marked the return of the Ellery Queen series after a five-year hiatus, as well as the beginning of a new phase in Queen's detective exploits. Player makes for an awkward adaptation. The story involves a complex, puzzle-like plot; the printed novel included a map, diagrams and typographic changes, none of which translate to audio. One has trouble deciphering certain names: "Ann Drew" sounds like "Andrew," and "Y's Gambit" sounds like "wise gambit." Narration and characters are well differentiated by David Edwards, but his voice often comes across as tired and flat, made worse by the fuzzy recording quality. S.E.S. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First Edition. The boards are slightly edge worn, but remain strong and square. The dust jacket is rubbed, marked and worn, with small chips out of the top and bottom edges. This does not affect the legibility of the text, and the jacket remains whole and bright. Internally, the first and last few pages are a touch foxed, but this does not extend into the body of the book. The pages within are crisp, clean and complete. The binding is tight and it is presented charmingly in cellophane. JV.K. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services. Seller Inventory # orqz
