Acerca de esta escucha
A year and a half into her first term as President of the United States, Libby Paulsen is in a world of trouble. Her controversial agenda has placed her in a doomsday clash with a right wing cabal led by an enigmatic Air Force general. The conspirators will stop at nothing - including assassination - to remove Libby Paulsen from office. When the cabal targets Air Force One, Libby's Presidency - and her life - rest in the hands of a maverick pilot named Pete Brand, a man with whom the President shares a long-smoldering secret. The President's Pilot is a high-stakes political and military thriller drawn from today's - and tomorrow's - explosive headlines.

Historia
The Gulf War has been over for ten years. It's up to Hornet pilots like Cmdr. Brick Maxwell and his glory-seeking commanding officer, Killer Delancey, to keep the peace by a narrow margin - a margin called the No-Fly Zone. The Iraqi MiG pilots buzz the borders - just close enough to shake up the U.S. Hornets' nest. And the rules of engagement require the Hornets to hold their fire unless the Iraqis show hostile intent.

Historia
On the afternoon of April 4, 1977, Georgia housewife Sadie Burkhalter Hurst looked out her front door to see a frantic stranger running toward her, his clothes ablaze, and, behind him, the mangled fuselage of a passenger plane that had just crashed in her yard. The plane, a Southern Airways DC-9-31, had been carrying 81 passengers and four crew members en route to Atlanta when it entered a massive thunderstorm cell that turned into a dangerous cocktail of rain, hail, and lightning. Forced down onto a highway, the plane cut a swath of devastation through the small town of New Hope.

In retaliation for the attack, a group of American tourists is ambushed in Osaka, and then Japanese-Americans become targets across the United States.

When a raid on Chinese spies in Taiwan ends in a shootout, CIA Director Cooke turns to the Red Cell to figure out why China is ready to invade the island nation without any fear of reprisal.

Gives a whole new meaning to Snakes on a Plane!
If you could sum up The President's Pilot in three words, what would they be?
Fast paced.
Creative.
Shallow.
Have you listened to any of Thomas Block’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have not that I can see, but I will again. He captured the characters well, and was consistent. Some odd pronunciations and accents at times, but on balance a job well done.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Mrs. President, we have a problem.
Any additional comments?
This story moves very fast, and requires a great deal of suspension of disbelief. ( Truly the luckiest woman on earth! ) Technically it has good chops, a fine reader, and resolves reasonably well. I liked it somewhat more than my rating indicates, as I found some big plot holes. Technically well researched however, and a fun , if not light, listen.

The narrator is uneven and often times, awful.
Would you try another book from Robert Gandt and/or Thomas Block?
I would but only in book form. Some books are best read in silence.
What could Robert Gandt have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
The president comes across as the president of a PTA not of the US. No way would a male president be written as utterly boring as Libby. I could only listen for about two hours and it was just too painful.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Thomas Block?
Any number of readers. Scott Brick maybe. This narrator is ok for a stretch, then he randomly reads a line as if he is amazed by what just happened. He would be a good reader for the weird Matthew Reilly novels because everything really is over the top and requires an exclamation point after every single sentence. Some of the characters sound drunk.

Pointless story, bad narrator..don't bother
I should have taken Super Reviewer Charles Atkinson's review to heart and not wasted a credit on this piece of drivel.
Don't waste your time.

Madam President
I wished the reader could have used better voicing. The female voices are terrible. Other than that very good storyline

Grounded
I like the idea, and some of the characters, I think the author should have done more research about operating systems. I had to quit listening when an agent blundered with security. I can't suspend my disbelief to that level. The narrator stumbled over simple pronunciations, at more than one point he reminded me of an older gent that may have spent a pleasant afternoon relaxing with his mates at the local watering hole, and not quite able to put any kind of feeling into his reading.

Worst Narration I Have Ever Heard
Is there anything you would change about this book?
Give it a decent narrator.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Very monotone, mispronounced words, and did not always make transitions obvious.
Could you see The President's Pilot being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
Yes
Any additional comments?
The story was pretty good.

just ok
I have to say the narrator is not one of my favorites. I listen at 1.35 speed and that could have some bearing. the plot line is OK but a bit contrived. The author did a reasonable job pulling it off. a qualified recommendation.

Worst narrator ever!
Any additional comments?
I have listened to many Audible books over the years and this is hands down the worst performance I have ever heard. It's actually painful to listen. He sounds positively inebriated.

a page turner
Bought it as a $2.99 daily deal, wanted somthing different from several series that I have been listening to. The story starts quick and doesn't let up till the end. An exciting read, I finished it off in three days, where I usually take a couple of weeks to finish a audio book this size.
