Very disappointed

Revisado: 10-15-23

This series started so very strong with characters and subplots that were engaging and understandable. I was expecting a rousing conclusion but the ceaseless war fight without meaningful return to people i cared about left me flat.

There was an unexplained loose end from the suicidal bombing of the Hugh emblematic of how flat this series has become.

The narrator remains excellent. I doubt I’ll purchase the next episode at this rate.

Surprised and pleased!

Revisado: 02-18-23

I’m not a big fan of audio plays, but this one really surprised me. I’ve I found it thoroughly enjoyable especially since I’m a “space-baby” and grew up in the 1960s so all the characters were very familiar. I especially enjoyed the title’s allusion to Space 1999 the IPC syndicated TV series featuring Martin Balsam, the soundscape brought me right back to it. The acting by Natasha Lyonne was over-the-top, hilarious, and I found myself laughing out loud throughout.

Give it a spin. This is an Audible Original worth, listening to and going back to occasionally

Consistently Good Author

Revisado: 12-17-22

I continue to be addicted to Jack Carr’s protagonist James Reese. Carr’s plots could be taken from todays news feeds. Twist and turns keep me engaged and rooting for the good guys.

Do not buy this book

This is the same kind of psychobabel as Casteneda. Unless you’re stoned when reading you will quickly realize it is dribble an a rambling waste of your time.

Hard to follow as an audio book

Revisado: 04-21-21

Unless you have an intimate comprehension of the individual historical figures and geography you may find this retelling confusing at times.

The writing and performance is very good. The descriptions of battle, tactics and weaponry excellent.

If you’re thinking the alternative history will be dramatically different you will be disappointed.

Fascinating nugget of American History

Revisado: 08-14-20

We recently drove cross country, finishing our travels through upstate New York. Having gone to college in Syracuse I was hoping to find an interesting read this summer. The narrator and author did not disappoint. I found new perspective from familiar place names and new appreciation for the lives of our forebears.

Story & Performance equally Great

Revisado: 01-28-15

An epic tale of adversity and courage simply told by the late Edward Hermmann.

Re reading the time in the raft, it could be modern parallel of Exodus.

I read the epilogue over and over. Louis Zamperini is a better man than I.

Check the publication date

Revisado: 06-06-05

This book was published a year before 9/11. I found it to be thoroughly engaging with wonderful character development. John Corey is witty, ironic and the compleate New Yorker. I recommend this story and both the prequel PLUM ISLAND and the sequel NIGHT FALL.
