I am so sincerely glad that I read this book. I spend a lot of my time reading and this is one of my favorite authors.

Narration really good, other than butchering pronounciation of some words. (Facsimile was the worst.)

Repeating 'how long it had been. . ' again and again to set the timeline of past events grew tiresome and annoying. I think labeling the chapter head with the current timeline helped. I did like the story. I am guessing the author was pushed to finish too quickly and if given more time, would have produced a better version.

Terrible writing style, story goes nowhere, really slowly. Don't waste your time, I am irritated about every minute I wasted. Narration wasn't too bad.

Main character is dumb as a rock. The dialogue is disjointed and unrealistic. The story line has promise, I just kept hoping it would get better. It doesn't. It gets worse.

There's no depth to the characters or the story line. Sounded like the narrator doing the female voices was bored to death with this book. I don't blame her. Male narration: Cringe worthy dialogue, dumb as a rock characters. It is not the narrators fault.

Terrible story line, did not enjoy the narration, can't force myself to get through it. i did not think there was a Dean Koonts book that I would dislike. What a disappointment.

The narrater makes listening feel like a chore. There are awkward pauses, stress on the wrong words, and the general feel of the story line is disjointed.

I love this audiobook. Almost never do I leave a review, yet, here I am, because I want to encourage this author. I'm so excited to see what else he's written. Narration was beyond outstanding. Tom Taylorson portrayed so many different characters so well.

Book description includes the whole story, the whole book. Which it should if you were selling a book. Which would be really nice. I've read most of your books and you are a favorite. My point is that I would rather see you charge more per book than break up great books and sell them separately. Breaking them up seems almost condescending to the buyer. I'm just . . . disenchanted

Female narrators voice got on my nerves. It ruined the book for me. She needs voice lessons. Male narrator was great, Story line was promising, but I got 3/4 of the way through the book and couldn't listen to the female narrators voice anymore. .
