Unabridged Audiobook
This book I will say was quite silly. The action was "Keystone Cop" and the ending quite predictable. The premiss of the book and story line would have been good but the story that came out lacked a fullness of a Frederick Forsyth or a Dan Brown. It reminded me of reading a comic book or a young adult murder mystery like the Hardy Boys. Though it was silly I still gave it a medium score because of the laughs it gave me as the bad guys just could not shoot straight. If nothing else is pressing this is a quick listen being only 6 disks. Not recommended for intense focus. Just enjoy the story in the background.
I thought there were way too many characters to keep them straight in this book by listening to it. I had a hard time keeping track of who the good and bad guys were. This was my first Jack Higgins and not sure if I would listen to one again. Might just read in print so that I could keep track of characters better. I thought the plot was a nice one and there were some likeable characters, but just didn't really do anything for me.
I've read better Jack Higgins novels before. A little hard to follow at times.
Without Mecy - Jack Higgins I was disappointed in this book and I am a fan of Jack Higgins. It was incredible to me that the seasoned Jack Higgins would have his British characters in a booth in a pub discussing their affairs whilst the "baddy" was in the adjoining booth listening . . .I was sad at the end of Hannah - I thought this unnecessry . . .
I did not enjoy this book at all. After listening to 3 of the cd's I quit. I couldn't follow the story line and it was very uninteresting. I do not recommend it.
Very disappointing. Very hard to follow. Too many characters and they are not well defined. Don't waste your time on this.
What a disappointment! As a Jack Higgins fan from way back this made no sense.
