The Man from St. Petersburg

De: Ken Follett

Narrado por: Richard Armitage

"Ken Follett has done it once more . . . goes down with the ease and impact of a well-prepared martini." —New York Times Book Review

His name was Feliks. He came to London to commit a murder that would change history. A master manipulator, he had many weapons at his command, but against him were ranged the whole of the English police, a brilliant and powerful lord, and the young Winston Churchill himself. These odds would have stopped any man in the world—except the man from St. Petersburg.

Highly recommend

I’ve read and listened to most of Ken Follett’s books. This one was a bit different but I was drawn in from the beginning. World War I and the events leading up to it is a favorite subject of mine. As always the history and facts are dead on. The real characters woven in are believable and add to the story. And the story… everything you’d want. The narration also spot on. Highly recommended.

Loved it!

I am now a huge fan of historical fiction thanks to Ken Follett! This is a great story on all levels, intrigue, love, regret all laced in with a beautiful backdrop of pre WW1 English and Russian upper class. I completely enjoyed it!

Riveting and well-spun!

I enjoyed every minute of this chapter in time. All aspects of pre-WWI English society were represented well.

Engrossing Story

Ken Follett is a master storyteller. Though he normally has a lot of characters in his very long tales, they are all drawn so distinctly that I never lose who’s who and, by and large, feel I know most of them personally. It’s not always the ‘bad guys’ who are really the ‘bad guys.’ I loved the book. Great reader, too.

Don’t miss

Follett at his best. Masterful storytelling set against historic background. Thrilling and sometimes moving. Highly recommended.
