Good enough

Story was true Ken Follett. I remember reading this in school in early 80’s. So glad to experience the storyline again. Mr Jaffrey did a good enough job on the characters and intonations.

Raza Jaffrey and Ken Follett - a match made in heaven

Good story, captures your interest from the first chapter, and doesn't let go until the last pages. Add to that the fact that I could listen to Raza Jaffrey read the phone book and I would be riveted, and you have a winner.

Other considerations

Author Ken Follett needs no additional acclaim, so I recommend this book with no reservation.
My critique is directed towards the narrator. His ineptitude with the French language is shocking. I wonder why he did not enlist The services of a language coach

Not his best, but hey, it's still Follet

I've read every one of his books accept for the new junk that has come out recently. This is by far NOT my favorite, but its still well-worth the listen due to his talents. Decent espionage thriller. Worth the purchase if you like his other stuff.

Well-crafted, one of his best

Ken Follett has written a lot of great books, but this one blends his ability to build characters with his suspense and action better than any other. I love his books, and this may be my favorite. I didn't think it would be when I read the description, but it's just so well put together.

this is the type of story that you do not have to know a lot about the events to still be drawn in.

I liked how well they developed most of the characters in the book, and it was done neatly and clearly. well worth the listen.

Great Ken Follett Suspense filled with unstoppable action

In these times of what is going on in the Middle East, this Ken Follett novel shows the presence of mind of the Arab-Israeli conflicts that are occurring today. It is again a wonderful historical fictional novel that invokes the many issues that existed back in the late 1960’s and continue to this day. A “James Bond” type adventure, but based in historical facts of a very complicated past.
