Guided by firsthand accounts of Polo's travels, they quickly discover there are hostile forces willing to do anything to stop them from taking the riches from Chinese soil. Before long, the treasure hunt becomes a deadly game of cat and mouse that will rewrite history while taking the lives of many.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The Prisoner’s Gold hits like a hammer, with intense action, suspense, and intrigue that echo to the very last page and beyond. Fantastic!" (Graham Brown, number-one international best-selling author)

Story.somewhat interesting... tough to listen to

Didn't mind the story flow and miraculous escapes. The performnce was difficult to listen to and distracting.

Great store but the reader is awful

How could the performance have been better?

The reader would have done better to no use the awful voices. By the time I got into the 2nd hour of the book I was ready to scream just read and drop the voices!!

Narrator can't do women

Any additional comments?

I liked the book and for the most part the narrator does a go job, but his female characters all sound like valley girls. Which doesn't fit with the elite professional women in the story

Disappointed

Plenty of action. Implausible plot. Performer needs to work on his female voices. Could have been a lot better.

Not as good as book 1&2 in the series

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

This book was a so so story . It passed some time for me thats all

What do you think your next listen will be?

Vince Flynns or Stuart Woods New book

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

I enjoyed book 1 &2 in this series. This book is just another piece of the puzzle of this series but thats it !!

the way this book ended seemed to me like it was rushed and just thrown together to fit

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

depends on if i liked movie 1&2

Disappointed

Disappointed...maybe because I "read" this out of order, also because I don't appreciate the "F" word (perhaps McNutt, being a military sterotype character, might use the word), but in this and other C.K. books I've read or listened to, the profanity is overkill. The story was a bit predictable and the narrator, though versitle and realistic with some characters, was way off with McNutt---narrator made him sound like a very dumb Scoobedoo and Maggie's voice was too sticky sweet...even Sarah's voice didn't match her persona. Maybe a dual (male/female) narration would have been better. I probably won't listen to or read another Kuzneski novel.

pretty good

some parts a little too graphic and descriptive for my taste but like the story

Around the world

On the edge of your seat. You never know which way the plot will turn.

the prisoners gold

This was a good read or listen as it was. A little too much in the graphic description of blood and Guts, it was still exciting.

Great storyline and Superlative Narration

the narrator is excellent , superlative , the best of what I have ever heard.
The storyline is definitely captivating and once you begin you cannot stop before you finish .

My kudos to the narrator once again ...he made me fall in love with all the characters
