Young Bond, Book 4

De: Charlie Higson

Narrado por: Gerard Doyle

As the sun blazes over the Caribbean island of Lágrimas Negras, its bloodthirsty ruler is watching and waiting. Criminals come here to hide, with blood on their hands and escape on their minds. On the mainland, in the quiet town of Tres Hermanas, ex–flying ace Jack Stone leaves his son and daughter in the company of James Bond. But a gang of thieves lies in ambush—they want Stone’s precious safe and will kill for its contents. James embarks on a deadly chase through the Mexican jungle. On this terrifying trail of greed and betrayal, only danger is guaranteed—survival is not.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A series with a high I.Q.” (New York Times Book Review)

A good adventure

I read some reviews that did not like the narration. I thought he did a fine job.

The girl was a piece of work, but then that was the whole point of letting her grow up and look at the world.

As for the story being unbelievable... so what? I am happy to say that being believable is not a necessity in a story. And for that I am grateful.

James Bond was awesome as always

Loved it as i love all other James Bond stories. His leading lady left much to be desired though.

Unexpected Settings

The story seems a bit farfetched, however it was fun. I just couldn't fathom some of the settings and events and it strained the listen.
Combined with a terrible performance and I almost dumped the book. The reader sounded like a robot. Still the story wrapped up neatly, and follows closely with the series theme.

Good Book, Terrible Narrator

The book was hard to pay attention to because of Mr. Doyle. I'm sure there are a lot of books he reads well, however this one was not among the list. I would listen to 10 mins of this book and not remember anything I heard. I kept starting over - this was the most tedious listen I've experienced. I wanted to listen to the story so I pressed on. I purchased Book 5 in paper form as I cannot find it read by anyone else than Mr. Doyle. Please bring back Nathaniel Parker.

not bad story. slightly annoying voice.

not a bad story, fun to listen to unfortunately a slightly annoying voice. overall not bad.
