Fascinating

Revisado: 05-15-24

Really well done, broad and compelling in scope and depth. I really cannot recommend this audibook enough.

Why so gross?

Revisado: 10-15-22

this book had a nice storyline and I don't mind every day reality of situations being gross but it was way too much and I simply had to stop listening. I just don't understand why you would ruin a book by putting that many disgusting descriptions of things that nobody wants to hear about in your book.

GREAT story of a true (mostly unknown) hero

Revisado: 07-03-22

If you enjoy stories of WWII, you will be thrilled. This is a story of a Pacific theater hero, not one of the darlings of media melded into history, but one of a simple, straightforward, tempestuous, driven, problem-solving warrior. His flair for angering chair warmers (he did not suffer fools gladly) probably had something to do with his story not getting more attention than it has. Thanks to John R. Burning for finally telling it (his forward gives the impression it was a labor of love), and doing so superbly. The publisher's summary does not do this story justice.

I just couldn't do it

Revisado: 05-23-22

A hard to follow story becomes impossible to follow when the narration is poor. So many bad pronunciations, bad casting, odd character voicing.

like the story , not so much the writing

Revisado: 04-13-22

I liked this book.overall. Like so many other people have said, the language misuse of the child got to be very annoying. And can someone please buy the hero of pronoun.

Hero not so much

Revisado: 01-12-22

This was a well-written book and I've enjoyed the previous books in the series.
I almost quit reading this one because I had a problem with how Dominic denegrated Camila's family at every turn and treated her like she was a spoiled princess. The bigger problem is she tolerated this behavior. She was supposed to be strong and trying to be independent and then puts up with this treatment? Sad.

GRIPPING!

Revisado: 11-03-21

I'm 59, spent a lot of time in the woods, and don't scare much. There were points in this story my hair stood up. Great job.

Harrowing Tribute Well Written

Revisado: 10-30-21

True to the author's style, it puts you in another and momentous place and time, and makes the setting and the people familiar to the reader.

Not crazy about the narrator. He's skilled at his craft but had perhaps not quite the right gravitas for this particular reading.

A bit too, don't you think?

Revisado: 05-31-21

The epitome of smarmy, British self- indulgence. Darkness without a point. Literate nihilism without redeeming character.

Colin Firth was the perfect choice and is a great voice actor. The script, though.

Can't get traction

Revisado: 05-26-21

I got half way through and realized it had become a Herculean labor, though perhaps without a respondent virtue. I wish I could write like Hemingway. I suspect so does Furst.
