About this listen
Just as World War II threatens to break out, Mike Morrison arrives in Greece to collect his late wife’s inheritance. Hoping to quickly finish his business and leave before German troops invade, Morrison’s plans are derailed when he receives a letter listing the names of Greek patriots pretending to be German collaborators, a list Nazi strategists desperately need. With the outcome of the war hinging on Morrison’s ability to protect the letter, he embarks on an adventure across Greece in an effort to evade Nazi troops and keep the letter from falling into enemy hands.
Based on the diaries of Leon Uris’s uncle, this action-packed thriller will keep listeners in suspense until the very end. A 1959 film adaptation starred Robert Mitchum and Stanley Baker.

It was a time of crisis, a time of tragedy - and a time of transcendent courage and determination. Leon Uris’s blazing novel is set in the midst of the ghetto uprising that defied Nazi tyranny, as the Jews of Warsaw boldly met Wehrmacht tanks with homemade weapons and bare fists. Here, painted on a canvas as broad as its subject matter, is the compelling story of one of the most heroic struggles of modern times.

Story
From the acclaimed author who enthralled the world with Exodus, Battle Cry, QB VII, Topaz, and other beloved classics of twentieth-century fiction comes a sweeping and powerful epic adventure that captures the "terrible beauty" of Ireland during its long and bloody struggle for freedom. It is the electrifying story of an idealistic young Catholic rebel and the valiant and beautiful Protestant girl who defied her heritage to join his cause. It is a tale of love and danger, of triumph at an unthinkable cost.

Not Uris’s best work
It feels like a novel that Uris banged out in the hopes of getting a screenplay deal in the early ‘60’s. The characters are two-dimensional at best.

historical fiction WW2 fast moving adventure
the story itself was first rate, the reader was first rate, the entire production was first rate. it was one of those books that I just could not put down until I finished it. the story was fast moving the reader knew how to queue in all the nuances when it came to language and titles and names. I would recommend this book in any book written by Ian Toll. especially the historical fictions around world war II.
