The life story of the bravest American to do the right thing for his country in the past 70 years. if you have an internet connection, it should be required reading.

could deeply relate

Revisado: 07-19-19

As an officer myself, I found myself repeatedly nodding in agreement, laughing at having experienced the exact same things myself, and learning a few new things myself. (I've never worked with the secret service, so that was all new to me).

This is definitely going to be the audiobook I point people to who don't get what it's like.

4+ mediocre stories instead of one good one

Revisado: 08-24-18

The author seems afraid to develop any of his characters or actually do anything with them. you've got a priest who's as self assured at the beginning as he is at the end, a tank commander with the attitude of eeyore and the number of lines up match. Then you've got 3 different governors who do literally nothing plot wise except fill up a couple pages and give you views of the war that add literally nothing to the story. and of course you have the titan crews who never change or grow at all.

Sure the author writes like they learned something, but literally nothing changes about their characters at all.

Plot? BOOM BAM PAKEW PAKEW MICHAEL BAY EXPLOSIONS! It would be extremely forgettable if it weren't for set pieces. Entire cities literally exploded like 4 times. They're nice visuals, but add 0 to the story beyond plot devices.

The reader was great, worked well with what he waa given, but you could tell he was struggling to remember all the forgettable one-off characters that for some reason were the main focus.


The book was clearly pushed out to sell adaptus titanicus box sets. Skip this and you'll miss out on nothing.

misleading listed narrators, but great book

Revisado: 08-10-17

when I saw Neil and Seth listed as narrators this instantly became an instant buy. unfortunately they both read about 3 minutes in the introduction/forward, then never again for the entire book. But.... then the narrator is llevar Burton, so that's still pretty awesome.

I have absolutely no idea what parts of this book were true. and that's not because it's awful. those two things are unrelated.

just kidding.

more of the same Tyson

Revisado: 06-09-17

Kind of disappointed. after the first couple chapters it quickly became everything you've heard him say before. little Timmy being 1% genetically different to us shows up, Hayden planetarium Pluto? yep. us being star stuff? A good 10 minutes on that point alone. he's also far more reserved / less excited than in other audio books he's done.

if you've just discovered Tyson you'll love it, but if you've been a fan for a while, you won't be missing really anything new.

Significantly better than the first.

Revisado: 12-07-16

Which character – as performed by Jeremy Sewell – was your favorite?

Lee- he seemed to get the effeminate fox down far better than the tough "straight" acting tiger.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, I was nearly late for work several times as I sat in my car needing to hear a few minutes more.

Any additional comments?

The story is top notch as Gold is known for. The reader has significantly improved since the first book, finally finding his confidence and step, as well as pacing himself as he reads. I listen to the HQ version though, so when chapters end you can still faintly hear the click of his mouse as he stopped the recording >.<. He also sometimes loses the voice of the character he's narrating for a sentence, but quickly picks it back up.

bad narrator, great story.

Revisado: 11-15-16

The story carries this Audio book. The narrator rushes, mispronounces, you can hear computers in the background, at one time a chair squeaking, awkward cuts and his voice differences for characters are unnoticeable most times.

I would happily rebuy this if it had a better recording, because this is tough to force through. luckily it's kyle gold, so the story makes you grit your teeth and bear it.

haven't enjoyed a book this much is years.

Revisado: 06-05-16

It's been a long time since I've been this emotionally invested in a story. My audible library is full of half finished books as I move on to a new one with each month's credit. This book though I finished in under a week. I was making extra time in my day just to listen to it. I'll definitely be picking up the rest of Gold's novels here, and I probably won't wait for the credits either.

This is also the first book to motivate me to write a review in over a year of subscribing to audible.

My only complaint is it felt like the reader misspoke a couple times, saying words close, but incorrect in context. ( such as saying "if" where "is" made sense logically and grammatically) these moments were very few and far between though. Maybe once every 4 chapters.
