David Ignatius is known for his uncanny ability, in novel after novel, to predict the next great national security headline. In Phantom Orbit, he presents a story both searing and topical, with stakes as far-reaching as outer space. It follows Ivan Volkov, a Russian student in Beijing, who discovers an unsolved puzzle in the writings of the seventeenth-century astronomer Johannes Kepler. He takes the puzzle to a senior scientist in the Chinese space program and declares his intention to solve it.

With his reputation permanently marred by an insider trading conviction, Jamison Maddox, a young Wall Street broker, reluctantly takes a job doing research for a small company in the sleepy town of Redemption, Illinois. He’s never heard of the company, or of the town, but he’s out of money and options. Though Jamison notices right away that everyone in Redemption is in some way related to one another, the big city boy chalks it up to small-town ways.

Good, but the narrator was subpar.
Revisado: 03-17-23
The plot was a good one and well paced. The writing was often time out if sync. A better narrator would have made it four stars.

In Gerrardsville, Colorado, a woman dies under the wheels of a moving bus. The death is ruled a suicide. But Jack Reacher saw what really happened: A man in a gray hoodie and jeans, moving stealthily, pushed the victim to her demise—before swiftly grabbing the dead woman’s purse and strolling away.

For most of the last hundred years, Biloxi was known for its beaches, resorts, and seafood industry. But it had a darker side. It was also notorious for corruption and vice, everything from gambling, prostitution, bootleg liquor, and drugs to contract killings. The vice was controlled by small cabal of mobsters, many of them rumored to be members of the Dixie Mafia.

On May 1, 1915, with WWI entering its tenth month, a luxury ocean liner as richly appointed as an English country house sailed out of New York, bound for Liverpool, carrying a record number of children and infants. The passengers were surprisingly at ease, even though Germany had declared the seas around Britain to be a war zone. For months, German U-boats had brought terror to the North Atlantic.

Well done, but not my favorite
Revisado: 04-14-15
Is there anything you would change about this book?
This would have been a better book to read than to listen to. Far too much time was spent of details. I get it, it was historical, but this was not Mr. Larson's best effort
Has Dead Wake turned you off from other books in this genre?
No, but there a lot of them out right now that's for sure
What does Scott Brick bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Mr. Brick is flawless, regardless of this book, a Clive Cusler book or any other book he has narrated.
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
Maybe

Bobby Astor is a fearless New York hedge-fund gunslinger on the verge of making his biggest killing ever. But everything changes when his father, the venerable chief executive of the New York Stock Exchange, is murdered along with the head of the Federal Reserve in a brazen, inexplicable attack on the South Lawn of the White House. In the moments before his death, Astor's father sends Bobby a mystifying text message…a single word that Bobby soon realizes offers the only clue to the identity of his father's killer and the terrifying motivation behind the attack.

A disappointing effort
Revisado: 07-10-14
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
I'm a big Christopher Reich fan, but this book was my least favorite. Great premise but horrible execution from a respected author.
What could Christopher Reich have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
The prose was just blah...seemed like he phoned this one in
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
The narrator was fine, I've enjoyed Paul Michael, not his fault
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
The story line was promising...great trailer but no meat.

Um..Terrible
Revisado: 06-10-14
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Just like other reviewers, the story is okay but the narration had me pulling my hair out in under 9 minutes and that's a record for me in this genre
What do you think your next listen will be?
Don't know yet
How could the performance have been better?
New narrators
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Mindfield?
Didn't get far enough!
