Another M Wolff novel filled with hard page turning and repeating facts. Michael Wolf is once again the narrator and he is totally boring. I believe he is now in the business of only trying to sell books without substantial material or entertaining performance behind it. My best advice is to skip this book and only read summaries of it instead – you won’t miss a thing.!

Very good historical story despite its slow going. Very good characters and very descriptive portraits of each. Will have to read again with less distractions.

Very colorful descriptions of people, places and things. Very good story for about 85% of the way through.

Story runs out of steam towards the end completely breaks down in its ending. In other words, very poor but happy ending.

Provides some useful insights but Digresses into nonsense too often. Not worth the 3 hrs listening time.

Interesting overview but somewhat shallow story of Alan Turing. Would have been so much more if the story covered the “life” and “ times” of Alan Turing. Instead the story put put too much emphasis on the “Turing Model” or “Tiring Method” without making it overly clear, on a simple and easy to grasp, basis. I suppose more reading or research is needed in order to filly appreciate and understand the brilliance and intelligence of this giant of a code breaker and computer pioneer.

Colorful and interesting in places but a bit too tedious and mundane; filled with gossip and innuendo. While I agree with most things “anti-Trump” and appreciate hearing them said , I nonetheless found this presentation Long on opinion and speculation and short on facts and analysis. So much more could have been said or pointed out about the myriad characters in the Trump drama. However, this story, like so many others of this genre is entertaining and reinforces the pall of darkness hanging over this imbecile who unfortunately was our 45th president!

Fascinating, fun and thrilling. Hard to believe Eddie Chapman was so accomplished - his story literally allows us to follow and see his character grow into and become a professional spy with all the spy-craft tools and gadgets of a real James Bond. This is an incredible and well written story by Ben McIntyre - the attention to detail is breathtaking. Of course, it would be hard to come away with this impression we’re it not for the superb narration of the story - job well done! As a result, I’ve bought the book and obtained the movie! There are also some documentaries available too. Can’t wait to explore some more!

Interesting but long winded & meandering story

At times, very interesting but long winded in many places. The story seems to meander from its original themes and digresses into several side shows. While the narrative continuously builds up suspense there does not seem to be a satisfying conclusion. In my mind, the story just suddenly ends and leaves one guessing as to the meaning of its rather nebulous conclusion. After hours of listening, I wish there was a more satisfying conclusion! Now, I’ll probably read the book!

Very meticulous and well nuanced despite the slow and tedious opening to the novel. In the beginning there was a lot of detail that seemed very tedious about the history of French assassinations. However, for the patient, this provided a good background for the story. Once the action commenced, the story became a real nailbiter and guessing game trying to figure out what the jackal was up to and going to do next. This was Masterfull storytelling at his best and the suspense kept building bit by bit until the very end climax. The narrator was excellent and seemed to get better as the story moved on and unfolded especially after the first few chapters. For those who enjoy spy stories, mysteries or thrillers this is a “cat’s meow - albeit a killer cat!

Written and delightful audio broadcast. Full of suspense, excitement, curiosity. Only shortcomings is that the story had to have an end. I would be much thrilled and delighted were there somehow a second volume. I must admit, I was very surprised at how well written the story was by Ken Follet. Is the first one of his novels that I have taken the time to read or listen to and it was well worth the time and effort.
