Disappointed

I do not like this abridged version. There is so much information missing in it. I was very disappointed. I didn’t like the narrator. He did not do justice to the characters.

Great book

Jumped around just a bit but easy to keep up with. Liked the voices the reader used and the tie to other books.

Missing a bit of the Cussler magic

The voice acting was solid but this abridgement leaves out some question solving scenes. As a wholethe excellent narration by Ron McLarty captures most of the story but there are several scenes from the book that are shortend or straight up ommitted completely. Even for a person who owns the book and rereads it regularly, the cuts leave questions with the listener that could have been avoided. Still its a good listen and I would endorse sharing this with anyone who likes the genre.
