About this listen
The Pandora Room is New York Times best-selling author Christopher Golden’s chilling exploration of what happens when the original Pandora's box is discovered in an ancient subterranean city, stirring international conflict and exposing the archaeological team to curses, whispers, and the terror of a legendary plague.
In one ancient variation on the myth of Pandora’s box, there were two jars, one for Pandora and one for her sister, Anesidora. One contained all the blessings of the gods; the other all the world’s curses. Now, in a subterranean city in Northern Iraq, archaeologist Sophie Durand has discovered a secret chamber covered in writing that confirms that version of the tale - a chamber that contains a single jar.
“Weird shit” expert Ben Walker joins Sophie’s team just as the mystery deepens and grows ugly. Those who believe the myth want to know which jar has been found in the Pandora Room, the one containing blessings or the one full of curses.
Governments rush to lay claim, but jihadi forces aren’t waiting for the dust to settle. Whatever the jar contains, they want it, no matter who they have to kill...or what will emerge when they open it. For Sophie, Walker, and the others, the Pandora Room may soon become their tomb.

Story
Christopher Golden's Ararat is the heart-pounding tale of an adventure that goes wrong - on a biblical scale. When an earthquake reveals a secret cave hidden inside Mount Ararat in Turkey, a daring, newly engaged couple are determined to be the first ones inside...and what they discover will change everything. The cave is actually a buried ancient ship that many quickly come to believe is Noah's Ark. When a team of scholars, archaeologists, and filmmakers make it inside the ark, they discover an elaborate coffin in its recesses.

Story
A burnout at thirty-five, months behind on his book, low on cash, and something of a loser, Eddie Spinola could use a shot in the arm. One day he randomly runs into Vernon, his ex-wife's brother, and his ex-dealer. Now employed by a shadowy pharmaceutical company, Vernon has something that might help: a new designer drug that stimulates brain function. One pill and Eddie is hooked. His book is finished within days; he learns and synthesizes information at a frightening rate; and he can go a long time without sleep or food.

It’s Halloween night, 1984, in Coventry, Massachusetts, and two families are unraveling. Up and down the street, horrifying secrets are being revealed, and all the while, mixed in with the trick-or-treaters of all ages, four children who do not belong are walking door to door, merging with the kids of Parmenter Road. Children in vintage costumes with faded, eerie makeup. They seem terrified, and beg the neighborhood kids to hide them away, to keep them safe from The Cunning Man.

In 525 BC, the Persian king Cambyses sent 50,000 soldiers across the conquered Egyptian desert to take an oasis city not far from where the Libyan border stands today. According to Greek history, a hurricane-force sandstorm struck near the end of their 600-mile trek. The army - all 50,000 men - vanished without a single trace. Fast forward to 1986. A British archaeological team, sent to the edge of the Great Sand Sea to exhume evidence of the incident, has also gone missing.

Captivating and intense
I really enjoyed this book. I’ve come to appreciate the Walker trilogy Golden has written so far. I hoped to get more background on how the title room got sealed off from the rest of the world but it was still a good book regardless. I highly recommend.

Too similar to the first book
I don't understand why there are references to unnatural creatures in his past but he doesn't believe in the supernatural. The attack and the military characters needed to be proofed by a military expert. Much of what happened didn't make sense from a tactical point of view. The trek through the cavern dragged badly. Just like the characters, I was finding it increasingly difficult to keep my eyes open.

The Accents Kill It (Not in a Good Way)
The story itself is great - but the narrator’s horrible accents and pronunciation is absolutely atrocious. Completely took me out of the story more than once.

I am still enjoying this series
Although it was a little wash rinse repeat from the first, I kept listening. Narration was decent, sometimes narrator changed how she pronounced things, especially names (is it Dr. Tong or Dr. Tang???). At least one character accent changed from beginning to end, bizarrely. The editing of the audio, however, was poor. several times it just comes to a halt and was clearly cut and pasted backed together, resulting in a spoken word or two to be lost. I don't think we can blame narrator for the poor audio editing so I gave narration 3 stars but definitely think Audible could do better here.

There are some editing glitches.
There are some editing glitches. This was my first book with this particular narrator and I did not like her performance and intonation . And finally who was the mole of the New Caliphate?

Not good... but not bad... just serviceable
The second book in the Ben Walker series was only a let down when compared to the first book Ararat. The pacing was really fast but this hurt the book, there was too much action and not enough suspense.
I compare this second book to a thriller/horror franchise taking a hard left turn into the action genre. It’s worth a read/listen only if you want to complete the series. This is a skip otherwise go straight to the third.

Story was alright
I was very excited to listen to this book.
Right away I started to regret not simply reading it myself.
The narrators accents and mouth noises were so distracting that I skipped some parts.
I enjoyed the first one so much but this was so similar it was a let down.
