Publisher's summary

Thirteen-year-old Anna escapes the horrors of Nazi occupied Warsaw and joins the underground. Under the guidance of a resistance fighter known as the Captain, she learns to survive, to cope with devastating loss, and to fight back. Every day is a challenge, and every mission is a battle against impossible odds. Then one night two allied planes fall from the sky, and everything changes in this action-packed, epic tale of despair, heartbreak, hope, and the triumph of the human spirit.

“The Promise: A World War II Story” is a riveting, decades-spanning, sweeping story, and an emotionally powerful tale of historical fiction from writer James J. Caterino, the author of “Super Hornet 1942”, “Miami Noir 1987”, and “Pop Star”.

Awful with the virtual voice!

The virtual voice was awful! I might have been able to get into this story if it was read by real people! Same tone… words mispronounced. Polish was read as polish(like furniture polish). I will rethink any book read by the virtual voice.

Horrific virtual voice narration…

The story and storyline are fairly good but it’s quickly ruined by monotone, sluggish narration and mispronounced words.

The book is about Poland and the Polish Resistance during WWII but the word Polish is pronounced wrong beginning to end. I found it extremely disrespectful to Poland and her People even today.
