Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 266
1914: As America’s century of dominance dawns, the country’s greatest detective, Van Dorn agent Isaac Bell, is pitted against a master thief and his assassin accomplice. They’re plotting to pull off the greatest heist in America’s history: the theft of a billion dollars from the newly created Federal Reserve. When an aerial attack is launched against Woodrow Wilson’s yacht during a meeting among the Federal Reserve’s branch leaders, Bell thwarts it, only to find that the strike was just the opening of an even deadlier gambit.

Quintessential Du Brul with Philip Mercer as a guest Isaac Bell
Revisado: 05-11-24
Clive and Jack were/are the pinnacle of exquisitely architected writing with unique backstory starting points combined with innovative plot mechanisms. Albeit formularic at times, but entertaining, with audacious exploits and frequent what the ? twists that send the story rollicking off in unexpected paths.
Won't give anything away, but the VanDorn motto veracity is again proven.
Would love to read about the resulting adventure based on Isaac's grandson, as the current head of the VanDorn agency, recruiting Philip Mercer to help solve a case.

Contrived something, but not a good monster story.
Revisado: 06-19-23
Best part of this was the narration, Would have been a much better story if it was about that "Worm guy, Nick ...." or even the first version with Perry Mason.
Kept hoping it would get better, but it did not. Continues the trend of bad Godzilla or Gojira movies milking the franchise.

First came the news that a flying saucer had landed in Iowa. Then came the announcement that the whole thing was a hoax. End of story. Case closed. Except that two agents of the most secret intelligence agency in the US government were on the scene and disappeared without reporting in. And four more agents who were sent in also disappeared. So the head of the agency and his two top agents went in and managed to get out with their discovery

Difficult narration
Revisado: 03-03-22
Narrator voiced Mary to softly to understand. Too much reliance on volume to differentiate characters, resulting in painful level if you raised volume to hear Mary. Recommend reading, had to struggle to complete.

Why do the "humans" sound like shrill old ladies
Revisado: 10-29-21
Really don't want to return another book because it's impossible to hear and understand. Painfully shrill! Come on now, these guys are big ape like types beating up on Lop-Tails and they sound like a Kzinti's claws dragging on a blackboard.

narrator shrill and grating

I thought Robinette was a male in the book, comes across as a shrill wicked witch!
Can't take but one chapter, going to return.

But when the daughter of a powerful chieftain goes missing, authorities believe a covert agent to be the cause. They need someone to track down the princess and roust the troublemaker and to do so without alerting the whole planet.

This performance will sell lots of hearing aids. The concept of singing to communicate intrigued me, however the reader took the same approach as rock bands, cover up lack of ability with wolune! Tried vainly to ride the gain to avoid discomfort but not successful. Ordered a print version to finish. Recommend you do likewise.
Returned unfinished.
