Weird beyond enjoyment.

Revisado: 02-10-24

The story and the characters were so disgusting that I can't believe this is a best seller.

The authors extensive knowledge of international relationships and his understanding of the global intelligence agencies.

A great story with interesting and remarkably real characters. John Wells is a multifaceted man with an incredibly tough job. Very believable.

Grossly vulgar, crude, low class characters with no interest to me.

Revisado: 12-31-23

I want to return the audio book after 7 chapters. I am trying to find the return process. The characters are simply vile and the plot is contrived to exaggerate the need for crime. How this book ever got nominated as a great crime story is an amazement to me.

A long long long dull book

Revisado: 04-27-23

The author has wonderful words, thoughts, descriptive emotions and physical settings. However, the story is very weak and the book is too long by ten times. It was almost impossible to keep listening. If you are interested in knowing what happens in this story I suggest that you find a brief synopsis somewhere. Don't bother to waste your time reading or listening to the whole novel.

Incredibly simple and seems to be written by a child

Revisado: 03-10-23

This book was a major disappointment!! The plot was too simple, the dialogue was so ridiculous that it seems impossible that an accomplished author would put his name on this book cover. The story was constantly interrupted by the protagonist feeling the unbelievable need to call his family for support over simple events. I think something went wrong with the publishing process.

I love Wilbur Smith

Fantastic story. Great characters, wonderful time period, marvelous descriptions of a seaman's life, and a fun learning experience of the Arab way of life. Just so much fun to read.

Took much too long to keep my interest

Revisado: 05-01-22

The book started with suspense then went into a 30 chapter decline. I was about to request a refund when some more action started. I finished the book but overall it was not a good read.

She is an excellent writer with a good understanding of human emotions but she spends too much time on repetitive introspection by the prime characters.

Not a thriller at all. Just endless boring dialogue.

Revisado: 04-24-22

This book does not qualify as a thriller. It is just filled with endless examples of young teenagers trying to find themselves.

It is made even more unpleasant by the narrator whispering in a sharp British accent that makes it very difficult to hear and follow the boring dialogue.

The author must have better books to be designated a best seller.

Nonsensical plot. Not believable.

Revisado: 01-06-22

The performance was well done but the plot, story, and ending were nonsense. Unless you believe in reincarnation the story is ridiculous.

Great dialog, interesting characters, unusual story, and too much introspection.

Revisado: 10-21-21

She is an excellent writer. The story was unusual enough to keep me reading to see the outcome ( which I did not expect). The characters were interesting. The narrator was superb. I thought there was too much redundant introspection by the lead character.
