The Inventor's Tomb

A Page-Turning Archaeological Thriller

By: Ernest Dempsey

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

SOME LEGENDS ARE TOO POWERFUL TO UNCOVER

Artifact recovery specialists Sean Wyatt and Tommy Schultz are on the verge of the discovery of a lifetime.

Partnered with another friend from the archaeological community, Craig Freeman, they are hot on the trails of one of the most sought after artifacts in history--a lost scroll created by the Greek inventor, Archimedes.

In the ancient city of Petra, what they find is not what they expected.

The discovery leads to betrayal, leaving Sean and Tommy to be forgotten to the shadows of time.

After a miraculous escape, the two must unravel a series of nearly impossible clues to uncover the truth about the lost scroll, and to prevent their mutinous betrayer from exacting his will on the civilized world.

The Inventor's Tomb is book 23 in Ernest Dempsey's USA Today best selling Sean Wyatt series, and takes readers on a wild thrill ride full of twists, turns, and adventure. Along the way, the colorful characters on both sides of the aisle are tested to their utmost capacity, and must discover truths about themselves they never understood before.

Virtual voice a disappotment

I listen to audible books from Amazon and other sources. This is the first s which I've listened to narrated by a virtual voice and most likely the last.

The virtual voice narration is lacking in dynamic changr to differentiate between character voices, lacking in a voice which sounds realistic or representative of one with stage, radio or performance training, sounding like a young thespias first attempt at reading for a part. I found it to be one element short of boring to listen to and unable to hold my attention at times. The actual range of the virtual voice was bland and lacking character and definition. Granted, my background includes stage performance as an actor and solist as well as radio voice overs, I found any comparison between my background and other audible book narrations and this virtual voice narration to be hugely disappointing.

I believe thr primary reason to use a virtual voice to be economic. I believe that Ernest Dempsey deserves better, even if he were to narrate his own books. I will not buy any more virtual voice narrations until they progress exponentially.

AI voice narration is awful. Book might be great but the monotone non human narration is not tolerable.

Awful narration. Stop using A I for narration. Maybe when AI can truly mimic human intonation it will be worth another try.

What was going to happen next and obviously the rest of the story

After 23 books, a little less repeating of what happened before , less repetition of some of the fears each guy has

Very good story!

I did not like the virtual reading, but overall a good book! I would definitely recommend if you like historical adventure type reads!

Great story with amazing characters …. But…

Virtual voice super distracting and disappointing….. previous human read books SO much more enjoyable and will seek out those for future listens

Great archaeological & gripping thriller!

Love the characters and their personalities. Their humor is so relatable and the challenges they face keep you going! The best in thriller fiction.

truly love the Sean Wyatt series

this was awesome. I love the descriptions and the history lessons as well. plus there is tons of action!

Not crazy about the narrator

Using AI to spoof a voice is just cheese. It came across flat and was distracting at times during the read. Do better.

Not a fan of the AI narrator

The story seemed intriguing. I’ll read the book instead of listening. I won’t buy a book with AI in the future.

Nothing no excitement

AI reading was mono didn't pull the listener into the story. Only finished listening because I don't like not completing a book.
