About this listen
Ex-journalist Dan Starkey is stuck in a grimy Belfast bedsit. His life is a disaster, and his only solace is the pub round the corner. He really, really needs something to get his teeth into. Fellow ex-journalist Mark Corkery provides that something. Corkery, an Internet horseracing gossip, wants him to investigate Geordie McClean, the man behind Irish American Racing.
Simple enough for a man with Dan's experience, surely? But Trouble is Dan's middle name. And trouble is what he finds.

Bateman brought to audio life
Would you listen to The Horse with My Name again? Why?
Generally a great book from Colin, very funny throughout, a little bizarre in sections but all add to the unique style he has. Well read by the narrator, however would have expected somewhat deeper Belfast accent than what seemed like a well versed Cultra accent ;)

Luck of the Irish!
At first I thought I would not like the narration, but it's so well done I was away with the horses, and loved all the twists and turns of the story............

Appalling
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
This book was awful. I gave up in the first chapter after a graphic description of a toilet being unblocked by hand, the blockage being rancid chicken. I do not need to be depressed and made ill by a book.
Has The Horse with My Name put you off other books in this genre?
Yes
Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Gerard Ban-Lavery?
He was fine
What character would you cut from The Horse with My Name?
All of them
Any additional comments?
Awful, awful, awful
