What a special book!

I loved this special. The love, the Great War the prose all written by an author who writes equal to Hilton or Shute. The narration was excellent. I warmly recommend this book.

Predictable

Too bad that the author went for a HEA ending. It just felt like a let down. As other reviewers have noted, the narration was pretty bad. It might have been more believable with a better voice actor.

bad audio narration

total crap badly narrated. too many strands that don't work. proof that anyone can get their writing published

Don’t purchase

I couldn’t get past the first chapter. The woman reading it is horrendous. Her voices for the men are so bad.
