Very good, but wanted more.

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed this book. I learned a lot about Houdini that I didn't know. But this was an abridged book and I felt there were some things left out or overly summarized. I'll check out the unabridged version from the library.

Touching End and New Beginnings

Revisado: 10-21-14

Would you listen to Blood in Snow again? Why?

Absolutely. Fleet Cooper did a terrific job. The characters had a variety of different "sounds" so they didn't all sound the same or variations of the same actor.

What did you like best about this story?

The humor ("The only thing revolting is your court jester"--loved that line.) Also how things unfolded in a different way than expected.

Which scene was your favorite?

The sword fight at the Stone of Death where "Lord Somebody beat the other person." LOL. Also, the great battle scene with the armies. It's one of the only battle scenes where I felt like I was there. It wasn't overwritten or bogged down by too many details.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The very last scene seemed so real for me. I could really feel for Edmond on so many levels. The heartbreak and joy... I really hope there's more after this.

Any additional comments?

I wish there were more goblins. I missed Kravel and Gurding's witty banter.

Extremely Good Book

Revisado: 03-24-06

I can't say enough good things about this book. It was fast-paced, factual, suspenseful, and well-written. The author did a great job!

Good...

Revisado: 08-29-05

First of all, I want to point out that three stars means that this is a good, but not great book. I think many people will look at my rating and assume that I hated it, but I didn't. It started off a bit slow, but eventually picked up. Good characters and a nice ending. The narrator did a great job of bring the characters to life. I am not sure if I will read the rest of the trilogy, but I would recommend this book to anybody who wants a quick, easy read.

Very good!

I really enjoyed this book. The writing was good and the narrator was fantastic. Extremely interesting topic. The only fault that I could find is that it sometimes dragged on in brief spots, however, I think that I am being nit-picky.

Good

Revisado: 03-15-04

I enjoyed this book a great deal, but it left me wanting more. I suppose that this is a characteristic of a good book... but it left a lot of unanswered questions. It seemed to skim over a lot of important aspects of the war, such as the Nazi "war on cancer" and even their race to build an A-bomb. Still, I recommend this book if only for the final chapter about science and social responsibility.

Good.

Revisado: 03-15-04

I thought that this book was interesting, but didn't go into the kind of depth as to the "man behind the mission" that I wanted. The narrator had a great voice, which always makes listening to a book pleasant.
