The Road to Gandolfo Audiobook

" Interesting story centering on a wild, out of control hero type. Read the preface and you will understand the story takes on a comic flair in describing the situations "the general" gets involved in as he plots to kidnap the pope. A main character is dragged into the plot despite his obvious reluctance. "

" My favorite Ludlum. After a while his books start blending together, so I stopped reading them, but Gandolfo is a rather funny departure from his usual formula. Every few years though, I'll pick up something new to see if I want to stick with it. "

" Quite a surprise to read such a slapstick from Robert Ludlum. "

" This book was pretty silly. "

" This is the book responsible for my love of Ludlum. The first one I ever read and a tremendous springboard into all of his treasures! "

" This was a silly book. But entertaining. "

" Enjoyed the ending. "

" Not wild for the "road" Ludlums "

" if you have read first the road to omaha... well, this is where it all started!!! it a page turner and you'll cry laughing... i love this book! "

" Disapointed, this one was more humorous than anything, and I didnt like it near as well as serious books "

" So very funny!! LOVED this book! Thanks Dad!! "

" OK Mildly funny "

" So funny! Ludlum at his most charming, rather than being clever and mysterious. "

" A humorous thriller from Robert Ludlum. "

" I don't read Ludlum for comedy and this one didn't work for me. I quit after 100 pages. "

" Read this years ago on my honeymoon while riding the trains in Europe. Now I think of the new Pope with the Old Pope in retirement. "

" If I could give it another half star I would, it's a really enjoyable read with some great characters. It's also very funny, which makes it different to most Ludlum novels. The ending suggests a possible followup which I look forward to reading. "

" Very funny for a Ludlum book "

" Best Ludlum ever. "

" Nice vignette of a story. Clever but not terribly taxing. "

" kidnap the pope! hehehe "

" Couldnt rally get into this book at all. I admit I wasnt feeling well when I started to read it. But it was by far the worst Ludlum book I have read. I don't recomend it. "

" I have read EVERY Ludlum book ever written - and this is his only comedic book that he wrote. Successfully fun, funny, irreverent - what a great writer he was!! "

" The first laugh I got from Ludlum! An entirely different Ludlum, but still best in writing! "

" Very, very funny book from a master of the spy thriller, a departure from his normal super-serious style. "

" A light-hearted thriller involving an ambitious general's plan to kidnap the pope for $400 million. Three stars because whilst the plot was clever, it was neither hilarious nor wholly engrossing. Very different from Ludlum's usual work. "

" I'm really glad that Ludlum stopped mid-stream to write this delightful story of the Pope who wanted to get away from it all. "

" One of my favorites from this author "

" He can make you laugh. "

" Hilarious! Laughed out loud many times. "

" Not his best effort...I think he wrote this in college. "

" Lots of humor not always found in Ludlum writings "
