The Ghost Road, The Regeneration Book 3 Audiobook (Unabridged)

" crap - trying WAY too hard "

" This was a Booker Prize winner. It was good (obviously) but not highly recommend (by me). "

" Loved this trilogy emotional journey for the reader and the main character "

" I did not realize this was #3 of a trilogy; as a stand-alone piece it was empty. The writing was adequate but not inspired. "

" Probably the most tragic of the three and definitely left me emotional. This is the first of the three set in physical warfare. As far as I'm aware it won the booker prize. A beautifully written final in the trilogy. "

" Having previously read the rest of the trilogy, I was keen to see what Pat Barker would do with 'The Ghost Road'. I'm left a little unsure what to write. Finishing the book seemed a bit of an anticlimax and, several hours later, I haven't had anything from the novel floating around in my head, urging me to think more about the novel, or to reconsider my views. I enjoyed reading it, but it didn't click with me for some reason. "

" you need to read the trilogy "

" Was on the books you should read list but I really didn't enjoy the story. The writing style wasn't really enjoyable to me. "

" Tough stuff but phenomenal. Best book that I've read in a very long time. Probably have to read the first 2 books of the trilogy, Regeneration and The Eye in the Door, to get the history of the characters. Booker Prize 1995. "

" Dunno why, but this is my least favourite of the Regeneration Trilogy. Underwhelming. "

" Wonderful series of books on ww1 and trench warfare. Takes place in a psychiatric facility in Scotland were officers go when they have battle fatigue. Yrue characters are used including several famous poets of the war. "

" An excellent book about our heritage of war/psychology of warriors "

" Too Modern of a work for the Post-modern mind. "

" One of the most powerful things I have ever read. "

" Can't remember the last time a book left me fealing so emotionally drained a the end. "

" A terrifying novel about the aftermath of trauma and the contradictions in the soldiers' psyche, where the war is both terrible and never to be repeated and at the same time experiences derived from it are given enormous value. "

" this is the third in the regeneration trilogy. i enjoyed every one of them. barker's depiction of war, its after effects, male homosexual sex: all of it is so spot on (though i obviously don't have the experience to compare it to). i would strongly recommend this trilogy. "

" I read this book about 10 years ago. I remember it being very moving. I really enjoyed the class discussions and writing a paper about it. "

" The third in a series following the lives of the famous Word War One poets like Owen and Sassoon. The narrator begins in a mental institution with shell shock and is going to the front. A few illicit scenes by “ill” men add a bit of interest. "

" Wonderful series of books on ww1 and trench warfare. Takes place in a psychiatric facility in Scotland were officers go when they have battle fatigue. Yrue characters are used including several famous poets of the war. "

" This was a Booker Prize winner. It was good (obviously) but not highly recommend (by me). "

" all a bit nothing really the trilogy started so well and ended with such nothing "

" This book is great but I think it is necessary to read the first two before reading this one. "

" Way above me, the sort of book you would be made to study at college or university. I imagine it would appeal to the intelligenesia. "
