Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Wonderfully entertaining…a brilliantly claustrophobic setting for a twisty plot that coils tighter and tighter…These Preston and Child books are hard to classify; the name Indiana Jones will come to mind—but Pendergast is a deeper, realer character that Indy.”  —Sullivan County Democrat (NY)
“Entry still shows why the authors stand head and shoulders above their rivals in this subgenre.”  —Publishers Weekly
“Fans of the Pendergast series expect an intricately plotted thriller with eerie supernatural overtones, and this is one of the best. Auberjonois’ reading is first-rate, a brilliant performance full of dramatic shadings and edge-of-the-seat suspense. He has a splendid voice, nuanced and richly textured, and he turns this excellent novel into a one-of-a-kind listening experience.” —Booklist
“In a coolly understated performance, René Auberjonois subtly heightens the ever-increasing tension as Constance and Pendergast board the luxury liner Brittania on its maiden voyage, searching for the madman bent on world destruction. Auberjonois’ deceptively ordinary voice pulls listeners into Preston and Child’s world, where science, mysticism, and melodrama reign supreme. Lots of fun!” —AudioFile
