The book was good at the start but I soured on it when the descriptions of the main characters were read more toward the middle. Then it's creative spark vanished and it seemed geared toward young adults playing video games. I'll not be buying the sequel if there is one.

The story is well written, and well performed. It’s intriguing and really bends the mind to the possibilities of life out there. Can’t wait to get the next book.

Btonson Pinchot is a master of many voices making any book come alive. The author's writing and Mr. Pinchot's delivery kept me on the edge of my seat.

Pretty much the same storyline over and over again. Modern weapons being cowboys. Not recommended.

One of the best written and best read books I've heard portraying the uglier side of mankind.

I have either read or listened to ALL of Nelson DeMille's novels but I can't even get beyond Chapter 2. There's background music throughout the book (I'm assuming)! I kept hoping it would stop but it's so distracting that I'm having trouble concentrating on the story to even tell if it's interesting. How can I listen and imagine the plot building up to whatever climax DeMille has offered with background music intensifying when the story is supposed to be intense? It reminds me a bit of movies with background music. It may work in movies but when listening to a book, I want to hear the words and inflection of the narrator and nothing else! .Next there'll be laugh tracks at humorous parts! It also makes me wonder if the book and the narrator aren't good enough to be enjoyable on their own without the music promoting the listener when the story is intense parts and and when it's not. It's not for me!!!

The storyline seemed promising but the author had nothing beyond it. He/she wrote about the same concept over and over again!!!
