Capturing Evil

This is probably the best audio book I've ever heard. Where to begin after that? Simply to say that Neal Bascomb has written a taught, highly suspenseful narrative of the capture of one of history's greatest monsters. The book is perfect for audio. All the meticulous details of the planning, Eichman's fearful and almost successful efforts to allude capture, the stalking of the prey, and the execution of an incredible mission are wonderfully portrayed in Paul Hecht's excellent reading. I didn't want it to end.

Excellent

Like a spy novel but better. Then again, true history is stranger than fiction.

This book gives a good, sometimes thrilling account of the hunt for the notorious Nazi killer. The book is not too 'gory', nor is it over written in minute facts...

Great story, well read. Very interesting stuff.

Couldn't Stop Listening

This is a fantastic book. There was not a dull moment for me in the story. It is real life cat and mouse game, and the author has all the details of what happens. He did excellent research, even though you may know the story you still think they will not actually catch Eichmann. If you like spy novels with war mixed in this will not fail you. The reader was great. Most of the books I have read/heard are English narraters, but Paul Hecht was American with a very strong authorative voice. He was perfect for the role.

Great book

This is a great book that had been on my wish list for quite a while. It really gave you the history after World War II and I never knew that a lot of people wanted to forget what Hitler and company had done and just move on. I don't know if I would have felt that way. The build up of people knowing that was probably Eichmann in South America but preceding cautiously with that information was suspenseful. Even though you know what eventually happens you won't be disappointed with this book. The narration is great. Not as long as the hours imply; this is a fast listen.

Must read this book!

Chilling. Gripping. Frightening. I couldn't put it away. Every American should be required to read this in high school. I feel some sense of satisfaction to know how he lived after what he did.
