A Great Surprise

Revisado: 10-17-24

This book was a great surprise, and an enjoyable read. Narration was good too. I would have made the main character about a decade older. I'm not sure why modern authors keep making their protagonists younger and younger. The book does get a bit too preachy at times.

Brilliant Storytelling

Revisado: 08-10-24

This is the second Taylor Caldwell novel I've read or listened to. I can't wait to start the next book in this series. Taylor Caldwell is one of the very best American writers of the 20th century. I also enjoyed the narration of this book.

A 20th Century Classic for All Time

Revisado: 06-10-24

This is a story I will likely never forget. As I listened, I kept thinking what a great movie series this could make.

So-so Story and. Painfully Bad Narration

Revisado: 08-18-23

I really wanted to like this series, but I cannot listen to another minute of this book. Some people are born to be narrators; Steve Rausch is clearly not one of them. The dialogue is melodramatic, while the cartoonish voices would seem to be a better fit for very young children. Is there a terrible shortage of narrators? I don't understand why this audio-disaster was ever produced. The author took a great topic and produced from it a story that is mediocre at best. The criminally-bad narration turned the book into a travesty.

OK, But Not Great

Revisado: 08-11-23

There's not a lot of meat to this story, but it has a few entertaining moments. The author uses MUCHO Espanñol, especially in the dialogue.

I Hung In There

Revisado: 06-07-23

I hung in there and finished the book, but I wasn't sad when it finally ended. The male narrator sounded robotic at times, while the female narrator was overly dramatic. The story became more and more unbelievable as it went on.

Good story, lousy narration

Revisado: 07-11-21

Dick Hill is one of my least favorite narrators. He always manages to make the protagonist sound like a middle-aged guy who’s had a bit too much to drink. His narration of female characters is laughably bad. The story itself is pretty good.

Great Storytelling

Revisado: 05-21-21

Robert Conroy is an excellent storyteller and Bronson Pinchot, though still a “perfect stranger” to me, is one of the best narrators to which I’ve had the pleasure of listening. If you like historical fiction or alternative history, you will likely enjoy this book as much as I did.

Disappointing

Revisado: 08-15-19

I listen to a lot of audiobooks, including many Christian books. I listened to the first three chapters of this book before finally calling it quits. The author should have had someone else narrate the book. The constant barrage of scientific facts quickly became tiresome.
