Publisher's summary

Husband-and-wife team Sam and Remi Fargo are intrigued when an archaeologist friend requests their help excavating a top secret historical site. What they find will set them on a hunt for a prize greater than they could ever imagine. The clues point to the hidden tomb of Attila the Hun, the High King who was reportedly buried with a vast fortune of gold and jewels and plunder....a bounty that has never been found. As they follow the trail through Hungary, Italy, France, Russia, and Kazakhstan - a trail that they discover leads them not to one tomb, but five - the Fargos will find themselves pitted against a thieving group of amateur treasure hunters, a cunning Russian businessman, and a ruthless Hungarian who claims direct descent from Attila himself...and will stop at nothing to claim the tombs' riches as his own.

Intertaining read

Kept my interest through-out and a very intertaining read and thrilling mistery. A bit on the light side but still very good.

Just as good the second time through

it is amazing that the mental pictures you get the first time you read something will flood back in the second time . if you didn't remember anything it must have been a boring book right?

Another hit for Mr. C!

Would you listen to The Tombs again? Why?

Yes, I WILL listen to it again just to make sure I haven't missed anything.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes, as all of Mr. Cussler's books do. This one went to many exotic locations with great descriptions and lots of history!

What does Scott Brick bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Mr. Brick is a very talented narrator. He shows just enough emotion and manages the 'speed' to the events taking place.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, but it is a tad too long for that, ha!

Any additional comments?

Love the Fargos...waiting for more!

CC get's more than double A+

What did you love best about The Tombs?

The history and development for setting the story into an exciting Adventure

Who was your favorite character and why?

Both the Fargo are favorites...they demonstrate not only how to be individuals, but define the courage and dedication it take to complete a relationship

Which scene was your favorite?

How Fargo followed his wife and could sense location without knowing, then as he came closer to her inprisonment, his insistence to learn Morse code is rewarded.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

just continued to keep my attention and didn't want to stop listening to the story.

Any additional comments?

Clive Cussller know to mix history and tell the "rest of the story" together for a great racing and listening experience
