Ten Thousand Islands

De: Randy Wayne White

Narrado por: Ron McLarty

Author of best-selling mysteries including Mangrove Coast, Randy Wayne White sets his novels in the Florida waters he knows so well - he is a veteran fishing guide and contributor to Outside magazine. Ten Thousand Islands is the seventh in the Doc Ford series.

Fifteen years ago, a teenage girl found an ancient gold medallion on a small island off the Florida gulf coast. Soon she was having nightmares and later was found hanging from a tree. Although the death was ruled a suicide, the girl's mother, Della, is now sure there was foul play. Her trailer has been vandalized, and her daughter's coffin raided. When Della comes to Doc for help, the mysterious gold medallion plunges the Florida marine biologist into a perilous search for answers.

Filled with suspense and highly charged atmosphere, Ten Thousand Islands received rave reviews from critics. Ron McLarty's dramatic narration highlights its gripping mixture of ancient ritual and modern evil.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"One of the most satisfying thrillers in recent memory." ( Chicago Tribune)

Great listen

Absolutely my favorite so far in the series. Great work Randy. Looking forward to the next book

Awesome, like the TV show The Finder, but better

I love this book, I really do. It's like a better, more substantial version of the tv show The Finder. (Its a spin-off from the show Bones) Seriously, listen and enjoy. I'm pretty sure if I find this book in paperback, I'll buy it and actually read it with my eyeballs.

Another excellent Doc Ford book

As usual Randy's characters are strongly created and the story keeps the reader or listener engaged.

Good with some suggestions

Ron did a good job of creating the story visuals. Took me awhile to get used to his voice and matching it with the "Doc Ford" view in my brain, he did Tomlinson very well. While a good story, this ranks somewhere in the middle of the Doc Ford books Randy has penned, and I've yet to find a bad one...

One suggestion for Ron, and God knows it is a hard thing to do, but being in Radio, as a DJ and then News Anchor/Director many years ago, you've got to know how to pronounce the names of towns and people's surnames....Think Boca Grande and Immokalee. Not exactly how Ron pronounced them...the locals, and I was one back in the 1950s and early 60s, pronounce them different.

Still good stuff..

Great read

Lots of FL history. Story moved quick and was very interesting. Love all RWW's books.

this was the best in the series

I thought there was more intrigue and main character description than the other books of this series. it was a good listen.

another good story

Randy Wayne White weaves another tale that has some history based on some historical facts weaves in modern Florida politics and at the same time shares a mighty good yarn. There's such a difference between reading and a audio performance. the audio performance was highly enjoyable and realistic.

Great listen

Lots of details and great story line. Makes you feel like your in Florida.interesting characters and lots of action.

really all of it!

You have to hear it for yourself. I've lived in Florida my whole life. The way it is described in this book is amazing.
