The original Bernie Bro
The Bernie the burglar books are a bona fide delight; Lawrence Block is a master, & Ferrone’s voice is perfect.

Ferrone is the perfect Rhodenbarr!
Bernie Rhodenbarr is your classic pulp novel anti-hero: sure he’s a thief, but he’s got a moral code and he’s a gentleman about it. He’s more of a loveable scamp than a vicious thug…until he gets caught red-handed in the some apartment where a grisly murder has occurred! In hiding while trying to clear his name, Bernie meets a mysterious young beauty while trying to hunt down the even more mysterious man who seemingly set him up for murder.
This one is funny and quirky and Richard Ferrone is perfect to narrate this tale for Audible; but as for the actual mystery, the solution is kinda pulled out of Bernie’s posterior and there’s an unnecessary twist at the end that I know was sure to be cute in 1977, but comes off as eye-rolling now. Still, it’s a ton of fun, and Bernie is definitely a character worth following: good thing his series is 13 books long!

Passable Lighthearted- If Not Always G-Rated- Mystery
This Lawrence Block offering - the first in the 'Bernie Rhodenbarr' series - introduces us to a smart-Alek ne'er do-well petty criminal sent on the run after being framed for murder. He soon teams up with a couple of conveniently helpful (and willingly seduced) "dames" to uncover the real killer before the police can capture him.
The plot is uncomplicated and doesn't take itself very seriously - don't expect anything weighty or thought-provoking - but the vocabulary/prose is capable and the pacing is fast enough to keep the pages turning.
A quality performance from Richard Ferrone helps with the quality of the book, too. His voice-acting is fairly weak at times, but his diction, cadence, and tonality are commendable.. and his gravelly baritone timbre is the best feature of the entire recording.
In toto, the audiobook rates 6 stars out of 10. I personally won't be continuing with the series.. but almost every book in the thing is available on this platform for free - it's not crazy to give Episode 1 a try and see if the style grabs you.
As to this first installment: 'Burglars Can't Be Choosers' is worth your time as a 'Plus' option.. but unlikely to merit a Credit should Audible ask for one.
