About this listen

As the chaos of World War II spreads, one family fights for their freedom against impossible odds . . .

Promoted within the British intelligence service, Paul is sent to Algiers during a ceasefire announced by French General Darlan. But when a deadly new assignment pushes his skills to the limit, will he step up to the challenge of his new role?

At Bletchley Park, Claire and her team of analysts discern from decoded messages that the Germans have employed a new type of radar that is decimating RAF bombers. And the messages she decodes grow more troubling by the hour.

Lance is sent to Colditz, a special prison for recaptured escapees. He will risk everything to make his escape to join the commandos back in England, where his brother Jeremy is enlisted in a daring raid.

Cousin Josh Littlefield, a US navy fighter pilot, finds himself at the heart of vital initiatives. But will his training hold up under enemy fire? With fighting ongoing at Guadalcanal and in North Africa, the Allies gain strategic ground in the European and Pacific theaters—but determined enemies on both fronts strike back with furious counterattacks.

And the Führer in Berlin is preparing an assault on Stalingrad . . .

Continued drama, action and romance as the Allies push through Italy.

Lee Jackson continues to draw us in using a powerful mix of dramatizations surrounding actual battles and verified individual heroic actions in both the Pacific and European theaters following a slight run through N. Africa. The Littlefield family continues to near-single-handedly win the war, but the reader can excuse this dramatic license in the name of a great read. Can’t wait for the next installment!

Great story.

Love the history told through The experiences of all the characters and their good and terrible experiences.

Tedious

I, like others, enjoyed the previous books, this one droned on and I often skipped ahead. I wasn't thrilled with the narrator either. His fake voices were a bit annoying.

A bit disappointed

I so looked forward to this book as I love the story of the Littlefields; however, I was disappointed that there were too many chapters without them. Sometimes I felt I was listening to just another student’s history report. I had to listen to multiple chapters several times as I found myself unable to focus on history I’ve already studied so much. I also did not like that the narrator had been changed. I do still love the Littlefields though and will definitely listen to the next book when available.

Reads like a bad history book

I really enjoyed the first few books but this one forgot all about its central characters and became a mediocre history book. I do hope the author redeems himself with the final book because the Littlefields of Sark were all but forgot, in this one.
