The Talbot Odyssey Audiobook

" This was a really really good book. "

" To me this book was a dry at times and fast paced at other. Great character development, story line, and plot. I figured out most of what was going on in the book when the author dropped the Odyssey hint. I have read better and faster pace Russian Spy Novels. Not one of favorite Nelson Demille book,but the author is really good writer. "

" Quite a complex, clandestine tale that I had a hard time following at times. Still, there were some interesting theories and was not disappointed with Nelson DeMilles entertaining descriptions of the action and character interactions. Not his best by far tho. "

" I did not finish this book. It is the only DeMille book that I did not like and the only book that I have not finished in a long time. "

" Older DeMille book and somewhat dated because it deals with the conflict between Russia and the US. Some twists and turns but I did figure it out before the author told the reader what was happening. "

" Not my favorite Nelson Demille, but still enjoyable. Had a hard time getting through the first part then wishing I would have paid closer attention in the beginning when the plot starting coming together. "

" One of my favorite authors, not one his better books. I was forewarned about the number of characters, so I really concentrated on them & their descriptions as they were introduced. It wasn't a big problem (try keeping up with the characters in War & Peace!) My main complaint was that the end of the book (last 100-150 pages) was too complicated & extremely improbable. There's no way all these diverse characters could've coordinated their various tasks in the short amount of time they had to organize. "

" DeMille is so good that even his so-so books are highly readable. I'm not a fan of stories that involve fictional presidents of the United States or ordinary schnooks who find themselves in save-the-world-from-catastrophe situations but DeMille makes it work as well as anyone could. "

" I just couldn't get into this book. Went back and finished it, but it didn' get any better. "

" Probably my least favorite DeMille book, but still good...more Cold War ruskies-bad guys and double, triple agents - keeps you guessing all throughout! "

" Just finished this book and it was enjoyable. I liked liked that it kept you guessing until the end who the double and triple agents really were. "

" Extremely well done and worth reading! Keeps you turning pages right up to the end. "

" This was an epic, I began thinking it was written by Cecil B. DeMille! You need a decoder ring to figure things out. "

" Great adventure read, a bit dated but Mr DeMille's writing, plot and byzantine intrigues is a great escape. "

" Stopped reading it. Could not get into the story. Have read many other DeMille books and liked them. Will try again later sometime. "

" It was not so bad and had read it years ago. Would not read it again like other books of this author. I am waiting to read his new book "Inferno" as soon it is available in paperback. "

" A complex spy story with a surprise ending. "

" This is one of the best books I've ever read. "

" A two star book by a great author. "

" My favorite of his books. I've read it many times. "

" Not as funny as his other books, but still a good read. very interesting story also. "

" Interesting subject matter - I recently heard on the radio that this is a possibility of what actually ends the world as we know it. Another great book Nelson DeMille. "

" Probably the only Demille book I gave less than 3 stars and I have almost all of them. "

" Spy vs. Spy vs. former cop vs. law-firm-spooks, add some double agents with family ties. Even with lapses in logic and believability, this book was very entertaining. "

" My first "potboiler." It was ok. Not fantastic, but ok. "

" DeMille is so good that even his so-so books are highly readable. I'm not a fan of stories that involve fictional presidents of the United States or ordinary schnooks who find themselves in save-the-world-from-catastrophe situations but DeMille makes it work as well as anyone could. "

" Probably my least favorite DeMille book, but still good...more Cold War ruskies-bad guys and double, triple agents - keeps you guessing all throughout! "

" This was an epic, I began thinking it was written by Cecil B. DeMille! You need a decoder ring to figure things out. "

" Entertaining, but somewhat predictable. "

" A real page turner. "

" By now we've heard enough stories about electromagnetic pulse weapons that they've lost some of their novelty, and I'm not sure how the Soviets knocking out every electric machine in the US would mean they got to declare the next president, but this is still a fun cold war spy book. "

" This was a really really good book. "

" Typically DeMille - good story, full of suspense and intrigue. Good summer read. "

" Not as funny as his other books, but still a good read. very interesting story also. "
