The Keeper's Son Audiobook

" Found this book to be very interesting. I had known in a vague way of the U-2 boats in the American waters but did not know as much as was told in this book. It was difficult to put the book down. "

" Interesting book 1 in the Josh Thurlow series. Action and humor in a historical context. "

" His books are a better written version of Clive Cussler. Engaging, fun historic fiction. I'm hooked. "

" Very slow. In fact I skipped to the ending just to put myself out of misery. Would not reccomend. "

" Although this book was a little hokey it did contain interesting info about U boat activity on the East Coast during WW2. 3.5 stars. "

" As soon as I sterted this book, it felt familiar. I realized I'd read it long ago, but I wanted to finish it again, because it is such a neat book with a great ending! Lots of NC coastal history, a good summer read! "

" Good read, WW2, German U boats and a mystery along the way. Tale of loss and discovery. "

" I had seen October Sky and decided to read this based on how much I enjoyed the movie... It was very good. Based on that book, I've picked up another of his books, Dinosaur Hunter. "

" I enjoyed this book. I liked the setting along the NC coast, the characters who lived on Killakeet and the mystery of Jacob who was lost. I was interested to learn about the U-boat attacks on the US during WWII and look forward to reading more about that, as well as the sequels to this book. "

" No rockets this time, well almost. "

" I'm a sucker for a WWII book anyway, but this one was exceptional. Great story, little known history, vivid descriptions which were not tedious, and it kept me reading four hours straight to finish last night--and I'm not on vacation! Can't wait to read the sequel and others by Homer Hickam. "

" It was a romantic, historical page turner. I found the ending disappointing. I don't like cliff hangers. I wonder if I will find out the ending if I read the rest of the series or if the whole series leaves questions unanswered? "

" A novel by Homer Hickam. OK, not great but an easy read. Takes place on North Carolina coast. "

" Audio book car trip. We thoroughly enjoyed the Ambassadors Son (which we got first, not knowing it was part of a series). The reader was different this time, but still enjoyable. I recommend the series of 3 on Audio. "

" Good start to an okay series. I bought it because I liked his Rocket Boys biographical novel and find that I also enjoy his fiction. "

" good way to pass the time "

" This was interesting in terms of life on a submarine and life living on an Island in the Atlantic but otherwise not that believable. "

" Audio recording was confusing so I actually started reading at the half-way point in the book. Didn't notice until I was getting to the end. It was all I needed to read. First half must have been all fluff. Last half was a good story. "
