Excellent. More so second go around

I listened to the story before taking up a 4 year assignment in the holy city. After immersing myself in the whole microcosm I read again with a deeper understanding, love, and reverence for the city.

Frighteningly gripping. Toe curling in part.

Hard, vicious, uncomfortably possible. Not (maybe) from disease, but from culture or demographics.
Well read (Paul Whitehouse is a great comic actor and raconteur)

Every bit as good as the previous works. The part, crossing 45degrees north, was heart stopping.
Brilliant.

Absolutely brilliant

Same thing as in warfare. Nothing goes to plan. Nobody deals with situations as John Wayne or James Bond.
It”s reasonable to expect the Secret Service to be more professional than most companies in the western world - but there is AT LEAST as much BS at upper management and accounting levels. The guys at the coal face are the core of the business, regardless of what happens in the board room.
Excellent podcast.

Eye opening

I never knew this story, but knew just the name, “Unabomber”.
Long but thorough piece by piece investigation is obviously mirrored by the narrative.
It was quite an epic tale, but held me in suspense, and I (semi) binged over a couple of days.
Terrific story. All too unfortunately it was not fiction.

One of the best from Bernard Cornwell and superbly read by Rupert Farley.
So very pleased that I downloaded this book.

Terrific

Unbelievable foul-ups to protect agencies from each other. Never should have happened, and the history of the world would be different. Perhaps even better - who knows?
Excellent podcast. Well presented. Gripping story.

Excellent apart from minor pronunciation gaffs

Thoroughly enjoyed the whole book. I am familiar with BP and their incredible work during the 40’s. Hope this encourages readers to visit the charitable site at least once in a lifetime.
Sorry for the loss of one star in the narration, but the odd Keswick (pronounces Kes’ick) and the spelling out of the N.A.A.F.I. when it is pronounced as is, as one word. There were a few others that made me smile rather than grimace. But to be fair, the narration was otherwise excellent.
Nice job all round. This has been one of the best audiobooks in my library.

Unbelievable garbage

Revisado: 06-19-17

Poorly written dribble for content. I don't believe I actually paid good money for this.
