Victory and Honor

By: W.E.B. Griffin, William E. Butterworth IV

Narrated by: Scott Brick

The spectacular new book in New York Times-bestselling author W.E.B. Griffin's Honor Bound saga of World War II espionage.

Wars come to an end. But then new ones begin. Just weeks after Hitler's suicide, Cletus Frade and his colleagues in the OSS find themselves up to their necks in battles every bit as fierce as the ones just ended. The first is political-the very survival of the OSS, with every department from Treasury to War to the FBI grabbing for its covert agents and assets. The second is on a much grander scale-the possible next world war, against Joe Stalin and his voracious ambitions. To get a jump on the latter, Frade has been conducting a secret operation, one of great daring-and great danger-but to conduct it and not be discovered, he and his men must walk a perilously dark line. One slip, and everyone becomes a casualty of war.

Critic reviews

“The poet laureate of the American military.”

“A storyteller in the grand tradition.”

“Techno-thriller fans will relish the detailed descriptions of weapons and aircraft.”

“W.E.B. Griffin is the best chronicler of the U.S. military ever to put pen to paper—and rates among the best storytellers in any genre.”

Victory and Honor

Scott Brick does a great job narrating this series. This was a good book, the pace moved right along and their was some action but much less than other books in the series. This book had much more suspense involved in the storyline. This is one of the few Griffin books that brought a tear to my eye toward the end of the book. I had just read a book about Harry Truman creating the CIA so when it showed up in the story line I felt very knowledgeable. Can not wait for the next book in the series. You will not waste a book credit if you choose this book.

Good but a little short

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Scott Brick does not do well with non English books, he strugles with foreign words and accents.

Writing quality.

At 9.8 hours, one of the shortest W.E.B. Griffin books I've ever read. Since this is the sixth book in the series, all the characters make sense. This one deals with the end of WWII and the confusion around Nazi defeat. It's largely set in Europe and on trans-Atlantic flights. One of the inconsistencies was that on one occasion, the Argentine crew went to an evening meeting in a Schloss (Castle) just a few minutes outside of Frankfurt, when really, its about a 4 hour drive in today's traffic. I had to suspend believability. The Nazi atrocities are right there, on full display. if you're a fan of military history, Griffin's books are for you.
