The Lincoln Letter Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Love this series. Best to start at the beginning but this is one of the best. It's a fascinating mix of 1st person history with a great story. "

" "Lincoln Letter" is told through simultaneous action in both the Civil War and modern eras. Unfortunately, the modern characters and setting cannot keep pace with those events and personalities surrounding the Lincoln White House. Much of the historical representation is interesting, and some characters have interesting color and interwoven back stories, but the action is less than breakneck and modern characters are more often disappointing caricatures. For any true fan of historical thrillers, there are several more viable options. This one, while not entirely unworthy, is better left to simmer on the back burner. "

" This is one of the best historical thrillers i have ever read. Can't wait till the the next Peter Fallon novel comes out!!!!! "

" I love all of William Martin's historical fiction,esp. the Peter Fallon series. Another great book--couldn't put it down! Highly recommend his books--start with Cape Cod & go from there :) "

" This was the first book I read by William Martin. I enjoyed the story line and hope to read more books by this author. "

" Very entertaining book. It reminded me of the National Treasure movies. "

" This is a very interesting historical novel about a mysterious diary belonging to Abraham Lincoln. the story travels back and forth in time between present day and the years of the Civil War. Mr. Martin does a good job of describing the action of the war. "

" Always enjoy Civil War novels. This comes from a very new approach. "

" I didn't get very far with this book because it started to remind me of the DaVinci Code or the National Treasure movies, which I refuse to see for many reasons, starting with Nicolas Cage, star pupil of the Keanu Reeves School of Acting. "

" Reminded me of the " national Treasure " movies. Suspend your disbelief, relax and enjoy! "

" History and mystery, Lincoln and the Civil War and current day Peter Fallon's search for Lincoln's Day Book. Well written and exciting. "

" Quit about 1/3 of the way through. I was expecting a present day mystery involving a lost Lincoln letter. And the few pages devoted to that was good. Problem was, it also took place in 1862 and that part, which consisted of the majority i had read, was mind numbingly boring "

" I loved this book, as I have all the William Martin Peter Fallon series. There are so many characters, though, that sometimes I have to flip back to remind me of who the character is. "

" Wonderful book. You are thrust into 1860's Washington DC. The streets and buildings come alive. William Martin is a magnificent historical fiction writer. He makes you hate to turn the last page. "

" The first book I've read in Martin's series of bookseller Peter Fallon adventures. Breezy, light and perhaps slight, but catnip for fans of Lincoln, historical thrillers and the "National Treasure" genre of movies. "

" Been interested in the Lincoln-era recently and this book did not disappoint as a really good thriller/historical novel. Entertaining and smart- will be reading more of this author. "

" another great historical novel by William Martin. "

" Didn't know this was fifth in a series about a certain treasure hunter leading-man. Quick easy read. Very entertaining. "

" Looking forward to reading more William Martin. Easy read. "

" There is an interesting story buried in this book somewhere. The story is difficult to find in all of the boring descriptions of too many characters. "

" Wonderful read. How did I not know so much about Lincoln and the politics of his time? "

" This was my least favorite book by William Martin. It did not have the excellent detail of his previous books and almost seemed like it was part of a serial. Although the subject was interesting the book seemed rushed. "
