About this listen

Final Bearing, co-written by Don Keith and Cdr. George Wallace, USN (retired), a former nuclear submarine captain.

Juan de Santiago is not only a billionaire coca grower, he is also a deranged revolutionary; the commander of the most powerful private army in South America. Backed by power-hungry rogue nations who supply him with the latest weaponry, de Santiago devises a plan that will dishearten the American antidrug effort and make him El Jefe once and for all.

A successful soldier in Florida's antidrug war, Tom Kincaid is an expert on Colombia, with connections that lead directly to Juan de Santiago himself. But when US politicians demand a publicity-driven drug bust, they blow the cover of Kincaid's carefully crafted network, leaving most of his informants dead, and get the DEA agent exiled to the relative backwater of Seattle. Commander Jonathan Ward and his crew on the old attack sub Spadefish are on one last mission. They are to launch a strike that will put de Santiago and his empire out of business for good. They are getting help from Bill Beaman and his SEAL team, who are searching for the secret laboratories of de Santiago.

Following deep jungle trails and hiking the lofty mountains of the ancient Inca Empire, they are intent on driving a stake through the heart of de Santiago's drug empire. But there is a leak in the Colombian government. Beaman and his SEALs are being stalked.

From the old highways of the Incas to the plush haciendas of the drug lords, guerrilla armies are lurking, striking out at those who threaten their lucrative trade. And at the same time, a futuristic mini-sub leaves Colombia. Destination: Seattle. And it is loaded with the most lethal, addictive substance known to man.

Great story. poor performance.

This was a great story in the submarine genera, the audio leaves much to be desired. The narrator had a halting style. There were numerous examples of audio inserts and edits that were very distracting.

terrible performance

The narrator is so monotone I struggled to finish this book. At times I was sure this was the first time he ever saw the book. I wont listen to another book he narrates.

The worst narrator!

I assume that the book is good, The story started good, but the horrible narrator made me stop after only 6 chapters in. I see that they changed narrators for the other books, so I am going to skip this one and move on to the other narrator. Hopefully they are better..... I can not imagine them being any worse!

Good Story but Poor Read

The plot of the story was engaging. But the almost monotone reader distracted from it.

Offended by poor pronunciation of various words

I believe that folks need to be careful of how they pronounce words. Nuclear pronounced as nu-que-ler instead of nu-cle-ar is a mistake many make. As someone who was raised in the Panama Canal Zone, I feel that if you don't know how to pronounce a Spanish word you need to ask for help. Other than those issues, I feel that the story was well done.

Submarine story w/ a LE side-story

Great audible drama. Great submarine background, Maybe could have used a little more LE background. Or maybe warrants and affidavits would have dragged down the continuous action.

The reader sounds just like Hank Hill

This is a great story. The reader makes it annoying to listen to. This reader needs to learn to pronounce Spanish words or stop reading those books. He sounded like a good ol boy. I hear banjo playing in the background 🤣 😂
