Victory and Honor

De: W. E. B. Griffin, William E. Butterworth IV

Narrado por: Scott Brick

The spectacular new book in New York Times best-selling author W.E.B. Griffin's Honor Bound saga of World War II espionage.

Wars come to an end. But then new ones begin. Just weeks after Hitler's suicide, Cletus Frade and his colleagues in the OSS find themselves up to their necks in battles every bit as fierce as the ones just ended. The first is political - the very survival of the OSS, with every department from Treasury to War to the FBI grabbing for its covert agents and assets. The second is on a much grander scale: the possible next world war, against Joe Stalin and his voracious ambitions.

To get a jump on the latter, Frade has been conducting a secret operation, one of great daring - and great danger - but to conduct it and not be discovered, he and his men must walk a perilously dark line. One slip, and everyone becomes a casualty of war.

Victory and Honor

Scott Brick does a great job narrating this series. This was a good book, the pace moved right along and their was some action but much less than other books in the series. This book had much more suspense involved in the storyline. This is one of the few Griffin books that brought a tear to my eye toward the end of the book. I had just read a book about Harry Truman creating the CIA so when it showed up in the story line I felt very knowledgeable. Can not wait for the next book in the series. You will not waste a book credit if you choose this book.

Good but a little short

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Scott Brick does not do well with non English books, he strugles with foreign words and accents.

Writing quality.

Insert title here

At 9.8 hours, one of the shortest W.E.B. Griffin books I've ever read. Since this is the sixth book in the series, all the characters make sense. This one deals with the end of WWII and the confusion around Nazi defeat. It's largely set in Europe and on trans-Atlantic flights. One of the inconsistencies was that on one occasion, the Argentine crew went to an evening meeting in a Schloss (Castle) just a few minutes outside of Frankfurt, when really, its about a 4 hour drive in today's traffic. I had to suspend believability. The Nazi atrocities are right there, on full display. if you're a fan of military history, Griffin's books are for you.

Classic W.E.B. and Brick's narration wins big.

This is a wonderfully entertaining addition to the extremely enjoyable OSS series. The author(s) rank at the top of the military-historical fiction genre and this story continues the well-deserved legacy. Scott Brick is one of my favorite narrators possessing a polished ease of delivery that makes any story he reads come to life. This is, as I had hoped for and expected, another carefully researched and detailed narrative. The characters are tightly and skillfully interlaced with the actual historical timeline. I was extremely pleased with the story, the excellent quality of the audio production and Mr. Brick's exceptional skills as a narrator. Highly recommended and a must-read for W.E.B. fans.

Is That All There Is?

This was a great story, but did I miss something? Clete has two kids, Peter has one, all sorts of things have happened and we only know about them because of brief mentions in passing. Why is this only 10 hours when all the other books are over 20 hours. I gave this a good rating, but I feel like I've been shorted.

Great! I enjoyed it very much, but it's too short.

Great! I enjoyed it very much, but it's too short. It could be longer, it's just so enjoyable, I don't wsnt it to end.

Another really good one from WEB Griffin.

WEB Griffin novels are always engaging and this one was no different. The audio book is excellent, as it is narrated by Scott Brick, who is masterful in his presentation.

Brick is a natural for Griffin's work, and he was excellent as always.
