When Michael Moorcock began chronicling the adventures of the albino sorcerer Elric, last king of decadent Melniboné, and his sentient vampiric sword, Stormbringer, he set out to create a new kind of fantasy adventure, one that broke with tradition and reflected a more up-to-date sophistication of theme and style. The result was a bold and unique hero: a rock-and-roll antihero who would channel all the violent excesses of the '60s into one enduring archetype.

Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

In a meteoric career that spanned a mere 12 years, Robert E. Howard single-handedly invented the genre that came to be called sword and sorcery. From his fertile imagination sprang some of fiction's most enduring heroes. Yet while Conan the Cimmerian is indisputably Howard's greatest creation, it was in his earlier sequence of tales featuring Kull, a fearless warrior with the brooding intellect of a philosopher, that Howard began to develop the distinctive themes and the richly evocative blend of history and mythology .

Loved listening to this. The only criticism I have is that the text was slightly abridged. The signal phrases were cut from the dialogue and sometimes it was hard for me to tell who was saying what.

Great to meet Doc again
From my childhood, I have known that Doc was the impetus for the story of Superman. Here, we see just one of the many facets of Doc’s story, the Fortress of Solitude, taken whole-cloth & used in the story of Superman. Doc Savage’s superlative story shines in the well performed rendition presented here. Great audible book.

Fun read!
I love these American pulp magazine stories during the 1930s and 1940s with the competent, multitalented hero with a diverse group of talented characters as their team. Plus these types of heroes and stories are the inspiration for many books and movies including Indiana Jones, Buckaroo Banzai, and more recently graphic novels such as Alan Moore's "Tom Strong" series.

Marvelous Job
Excellent narration of one of the seminal Doc tales written by Lester Dent. AUDIBLE should do many more of these.

Great fun
I do wish there were more recordings like this one and Land of Always Night. I was reminded of the great fun it was to read it back in the ‘70s. Good show!

Great Entertainment.
This was a very good story and the voice acting was superb as I have come to expect form these Doc Savage tales. Highly recommend.

An excellant Vintage Doc Savage Novel
What made the experience of listening to Fortress of Solitude the most enjoyable?
This was performed much like a radio play. With several cast members and sound effects, this added to the story enjoyment.
What did you like best about this story?
The choice of story. If there is a plan for dramatizing more of the Doc Savage novels, this was a good start. The introduction of the Fortress Of Solitude and the introduction of the villain, John Sunlight are legend in the pulp fandom.
Which character – as performed by the narrators – was your favorite?
Probably Doc himself, less for performance than for character. Although all performances were very enjoyable.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes
Any additional comments?
More Vintage Doc Savage novels please!

Fun again
I read these as a kid and loved them. finding them here, and with a cast instead of just one lone voice, is wonderful. it was a pleasure to listen to a story barely remembered. better still was the varity of voices. bravo! well done.
