Resumen del Editor

The only way you’ll leave Auschwitz is through the chimney.

The words still rang in Agnes Markx’s head as she left the Judenramp and the hive of activity around the train behind. As a nurse assigned to Block 10, she realizes the stories of the horrors transpiring here weren’t exaggerated. Now an unwilling accomplice in the Nazi doctors’ medical experiments, she vows to save as many women under her care as possible.

Electrician Joel Kozak has access to all areas of the gargantuan camp. When the underground camp resistance reaches out to him one day, he discovers his appointment wasn’t by accident.

As a stoker in Birkenau’s crematoria, Samson Tarski witnesses more death in an hour than most people in a lifetime. The thought of stepping into the gas chambers and ending his struggle is always on his mind. But when one of his friends shares a bold plan to rise up and destroy the buildings of death, he finds a renewed sense of purpose.

These three strangers are now part of an attempt to achieve the impossible without knowing each other.

To rise up, destroy the Auschwitz-Birkenau death factory, and escape to tell the world about it.

Based on actual events, Tracks to Freedom is a story of bravery and the battle to retain one’s humanity in a place where there is none.

the fact of the history. I appreciate while the story based on facts it did not get to graphic

I felt the one narrator was speaking to a group of school children. the story and history kept me interested so I listen to the end. Michael did his research to present a true historical fiction novel.

excellent writing

So glad for the continuance of Agnes's story. This is a powerful, and hard, reality of block 10 and 11 of Auschwitz -birkeneau
I really appreciate the real life stories being woven in.

Wonderfully Written

While a lot of subjects in this book are hard to hear this book was so good! I couldn’t put it down. You get so invested in the characters! The narrator was one of the best I listened to. He had different voices for each character and his accents were right on.
I read the first book in this series and now this one. Looking forward to reading more from this author!

Suffering vs humanity

Very good portrayal of what life may have been like in the concentration camps taken from actual accounts.

Enlightening

I loved the story. Horrendous tale of truth during the holocaust. Did not enjoy the narrator that much- too monotone to my liking.

We survived

The people in this book spring to life. You will hold onto every word. You will feel the pain as well as the. hope of the people. A must read.

great story

I really enjoyed this book and will listen to more by this author, Michael Reit

Disturbing yet needed

As disturbing as the story is, the least we can do is acknowledge the atrocities and never forget. The sparks of courage showcase the strength of the human spirit. My only criticism is the robotic voice of the narrator. Thank you, Michael.

Review

Gave a very factual, and brutal of the truths of the holocaust.Got to know many characters in the book. Honest, sad, joyful as we looked at humanity

Excellent!!!!

It would be impossible to put into words how much I enjoyed this book. I listened to it on audio book. The narration really brought it to life. Thank you Mr Reit for the story and Mr Maddaloni for the narration. You’ve found a forever fan.
