    Wonderful story, beautifully written and expertly narrated
    I do hope we will see and hear more of Cassius and his mates. Absolutely wonderful
    Good book
    Quite a nice quiet read to get lost into the world of ancient Antioch and the rest. Quite long, a bit like a midsummer murders in Syria?

    Publisher's Summary:
    In this absorbing and suspenseful debut novel - reminiscent of Revolutionary Road and inspired by a little-known piece of history - a young couple must fight to save both their marriage and the town they live in.
    In 1959, Nat Collier moves with her husband, Paul, and their two young daughters to Idaho Falls, a remote military town. An army specialist, Paul is stationed there to help oversee one of the country's first nuclear reactors - an assignment that seems full of opportunity.
    Then, on his rounds, Paul discovers that the reactor is compromised, placing his family and the entire community in danger. Worse, his superiors set out to cover up the problem rather than fix it. Paul can't bring himself to tell Nat the truth, but his lies only widen a growing gulf between them.
    Lonely and restless, Nat is having trouble adjusting to their new life. She struggles to fit into her role as a housewife and longs for a real friend. When she meets a rancher, Esrom, she finds herself drawn to him, comforted by his kindness and company. But as rumors spread, the secrets between Nat and Paul build and threaten to reach a breaking point.
    Based on a true story of the only fatal nuclear accident to occur in America, The Longest Night is a deeply moving novel that explores the intricate makeup of a marriage, the shifting nature of trust, and the ways we try to protect the ones we love.
    Critic Reviews:
    "Scintillating.... [Andria] Williams keeps the narrative interest percolating with great period details and by allowing her characters' thoughts and emotions full expression.... A smoldering, altogether impressive debut that probes the social and emotional strains on military families in a fresh and insightful way." (Kirkus Reviews)
    "[A] luminous debut.... Williams expertly builds tension between Paul and Nat as the story progresses towards the inevitable nuclear tragedy in this utterly absorbing and richly rewarding novel." (Booklist)
    "In The Longest Night, Andria Williams demonstrates her masterly understanding of the painfully gorgeous intimacies of the human condition. The author's thrilling story line will keep you turning the pages, while her ability to inject a sharp dose of hope, fear, and desire into the most innocent of scenes will take you captive. I loved it." (David R. Gillham, author of City of Women)

    Worth a read (or a listen)! Interesting story...
    ...and characters populate this book. Strong sense of place and time (era), great writing, character development, and story--and great audio performers!
    Excellent
    Very compelling. The writing is excellent, the characters are interesting, and the historical setting is intriguing. I almost NEVER wish for books to be longer, but in this case, I definitely wanted to read more about these people. Excellent narration too.

    Not quite what I expected
    Not a bad novel overall, but I was expecting more about the Civil War. The story was more about three brothers and how all three chose different roles during the Civil War. It was still a good read but I was expecting a novel where the Civil War and battles were the main part of the book instead of background material.
    For a mesmerizing read that you'll hate to see end
    I've been a long time fan of Woolard's and it seems every novel is more compelling than the last, and I thought the last a can't-put-it-down read. Time and place sweep you up and you feel the shock of cannon fire and smell the black powder smoke roiling over the battlefield. You sweat and bleed with the characters, and weep for and with them. it's a pleasure to read of a time when men were men and women appreciated the fact. And to read such accurate history, educational but never with a yawn. For a mesmerizing read that you'll hate to see end, pick up a copy of RIDING FOR THE FLAG!
    Four Stars
    Well written entertainment
    Civil War Page Turner
    Riding for the Flag entertains while reminding the terrible price our ancestors paid to have a united country with equitable rights for all. Civil War history enthusiasts will find this novel lively while enlightening.
    Woolard deftly employs an Ohio family divided by the war to tell his tale. Judah, Jacob, and Jarrod Bell suffer the physical and mental anguish of war. Woolard equitably relays the bravery and savagery of Blue and Gray. The reader is challenged to decide if this level of sacrifice is a reasonable price for any dispute. Solace is as scarce as teeth on a butterfly.
    Riding for the Flag is action packed. Abundant conflict from raids, robberies and full scale battle keep the pages turning. Woolard vividly captures the gruesome reality of the Battle at Pittsburgh Landing. The violence and gore of the fight is frighteningly realistic.
    The Flagâs cast is Woolardâs best yet. My favorite is Asa Barefoot, a half-breed Native American, black man who rides with Judah to join Morgan resenting the murder of a favorite uncle in a Union raid. Barefootâs wilderness skills and common sense contribute strongly to survival in the perilous journey.

    When Zenobia takes control of her own fate, will the gods punish her audacity?
    Zenobia, the proud daughter of a Syrian sheikh, refuses to marry against her will. She won't submit to a lifetime of subservience. When her father dies, she sets out on her own, pursuing the power she believes to be her birthright, dreaming of the Roman Empire's downfall and her ascendance to the throne.
    Defying her family, Zenobia arranges her own marriage to the most influential man in the city of Palmyra. But their union is anything but peaceful - his other wife begrudges the marriage and the birth of Zenobia's son, and Zenobia finds herself ever more drawn to her guardsman, Zabdas. As war breaks out, she's faced with terrible choices.
    From the decadent halls of Rome to the golden sands of Egypt, Zenobia fights for power, for love, and for her son. But will her hubris draw the wrath of the gods? Will she learn a "woman's place," or can she finally stake her claim as Empress of the East?

    Narration was a snoozefest
    Sigh this took forever to get through. I am an audio book lover the longer the better. But this narrator drove me insane. Her baselime voice is extremely monotone and basically boring. Itried to like this audio book but she just ruined it for me. It took me 3 months to get through this book when I have finished others that were 18 hours and up in just 2 days.
    The book itself is good, characters are well done, good descriptions but this narration is so beyond boring I don't even know how to describe it.
    The rise and fall of a women
    The story is all about one women's rise to greatness only to fall losing all that she coveted . It was daring and courageous for a women to be anything more then a pawn in political gain or a means to a son. This story follows the legend on the warrior queen. Zinobia, the main character is both likable and courageous. I received this book at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Great history lesson. Do listen to the authors history lesson at end. Extremely interesting.
    Interesting historical figure. Ghastly narration.
    This book wasnt for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
    Elementary aged children.
    How did the narrator detract from the book?
    Terrible inflections. Story read like a script from a newscaster, or someone reiterating a book report.
    Any additional comments?
    Would have been 1st rate coming from different author. (Eg Phillipa Gregory, Alison Weir, or Diana Gabaldon)

    October 1942 - The United States and the Empire of Japan are at war. Charlie Harrison, a young and ambitious lieutenant, reports for duty aboard the S-55, a worn-out WWI-era submarine.

There, the hunter will become the hunted, and Charlie will discover how good he is at war.
    Members Reviews:
    Gritty realism
    Craig DiLouie is a new author for me. I understand this book is a new genre for him. He is an award winning horror genre author who has also written some sci-fi books. This is a book of fiction. Our protagonist is Lt. Charlie Harrison fresh out of sub school. Harrison had served several years on a destroyer in the Atlantic Ocean hunting U-boats prior to volunteering for submarines. Harrison reports to the Pacific command for duty on pig boat S-55; the crew call her Frankie.
    The book is well written. The pace is fast; the plot is standard for the genre. The characters are most interesting and really make the story. DiLouie places the reader into the old pig boat; you can smell the stale, fuel fumed air and feel the depth charges rattle the boat. The suspense builds constantly throughout the story. As the depth charges rain down, the reader keeps focusing on the boat being old and no longer can go very deep; leaks keep popping up with each shaking of the boat. The story is action packed. I enjoyed the WWII history that is woven into the story. The book is short just under 5 hours. It is a great get away from it all book.
    R. C. Bray does a great job narrating the book. Bray is a stage actor and voiceover artist and is an Earphone Award-winner and Audie-nominated narrator of audiobooks.
    Good story, great narration
    This is mainly a character-driven story with just enough action and strategy to keep the reader reading. The battle scenes are not overly graphic and there
    aren't many. Much of the time is spent describing life on an antiquated submarine.
    As one would expect, R.C. Bray delivers an outstanding performance with this audiobook. It's a good story with great narration.
    Thrilling WWII Submarine Story
    Would you consider the audio edition of Crash Dive to be better than the print version?
    Definitely. RC does an AMAZING job of narrating the book, adding a level of drama and depth that might otherwise be missed.
    What did you like best about this story?
    The action of the story and the pace of the book.
    What does R.C. Bray bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?
    RC elevates the story to a new level, enhancing the drama and depth of the story through the voices of each distinct character of this fast paced story.
    Who was the most memorable character of Crash Dive and why?
    The depth charges. Hearing the "whoosh, Whoosh, WHOOSH", and "click, click, click", then "BANG"! I was on the edge of my seat listening when the depth charges showed up.
    Any additional comments?
    Great audio book. Really enjoyed it.
    Unexpectedly Good.
    Any additional comments?
    A certain kind of listener loves WW2 submarine stories, perhaps for the characters, the teamwork, or the cat-and-mouse interactions with the surface vessels. This novel has a tightness to it. The story parts fit together nicely, unlike the quirky old boat.

    but it was a good, quick read
    Was compared to "Code Name Verity" by Elizabeth Wein which this book doesn't touch in terms of depth, but it was a good, quick read. Other books by this author that are very good are: "Jefferson's Sons" and "The War that Saved My Life."
    I do not recommend kids read this book for that reason
    Very violent scene at opening. I do not recommend kids read this book for that reason.
    Great for those who love modern history.
    For Freedom was a good book, but it was a bit too long at parts. I kept waiting for the spying to start, but it didn't happen until late in the book. Overall, I thought it was boring at first, but it got more interesting once the spy stuff started. (Reviewed by: Thomas P.)
    I would have liked an additional chapter or two in order to complete ...
    Well-written and interesting story. I would have liked an additional chapter or two in order to complete the story in a less rushed manner, but I enjoyed it.
    bravery and talent
    another gripping story of people caught in world war 2 with a heroine who one has to be hoping will escape...all of the authors books are good reads.

    Publisher's Summary:
    New York Times best-selling author Deanna Raybourn returns with a Jazz Age tale of grand adventure.
    On the verge of a stilted life as an aristocrat's wife, Poppy Hammond does the only sensible thing - she flees the chapel in her wedding gown. Assisted by the handsome curate who calls himself Sebastian Cantrip, she spirits away to her estranged father's quiet country village, pursued by the family she left in uproar. But when the dust of her broken engagement settles and Sebastian disappears under mysterious circumstances, Poppy discovers there is more to her hero than it seems.
    With only her feisty lady's maid for company, Poppy secures employment and travels incognita - east across the seas, chasing a hunch and the whisper of clues. Danger abounds beneath the canopies of the silken city, and Poppy finds herself in the perilous sights of those who will stop at nothing to recover a fabled ancient treasure. Torn between allegiance to her kindly employer and a dashing, shadowy figure, Poppy will risk it all as she attempts to unravel a much larger plan - one that stretches to the very heart of the British government and one that could endanger everything and everyone she holds dear.

    Stick to the print edition for this one
    What disappointed you about Night of a Thousand Stars?
    I loved the book when I read it last year, but was really disappointed in the audio version because the narrator's voice got grating quickly.
    How did the narrator detract from the book?
    Her portrayal of the heroine, while perhaps appropriate for her character, was irritating. She sounded too girlish and whiny, even though her upper crust accent was appropriate. She couldn't portray most of the men very well because her range in terms of pitch is limited. The American and French accents she tried to use for some of the secondary characters were awful.
    What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
    Sadness and disappointment. It's such a great read and it's a shame the author's work has been so poorly served
    Any additional comments?
    If you're a fan of Deanna Raybourn's and haven't read this one yet, stick to the print version, because the audio version does it no favors.
    Not my favorite but still good!
    I read a lot of people didnt like the performance but I thought she was perfect. It had a Jazz age feel and it felt like so many people overlooked this small blonde woman who was actually really intelligent and funny. I think there was a lot of naïveté that this voice helped enforce and she wasnt Mary suing her way through gun fights and kidnappings. Also I thought the reader did a great job creating distinct voices for all the characters.
    Avoid
    What would have made Night of a Thousand Stars better?
    A different narrator--Anna Parker Naples did this story no favors. I read this book a few years ago and enjoyed it so much that I decided to listen to it. My entire experience of the story changed due to the narration.
    Who was your favorite character and why?
    How did the narrator detract from the book?
    In every way possible. Her voice grated with every character, but most especially with Poppy. What's more, the narrator's Arabic accent was painful to listen to--not a good thing for a book set in Syria.
    You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
    I loved the story.

    An interesting Civil War story
    While not to the level of Nagle's other books, this was an enjoyable read. What I like about historical fiction is that you come away with a better understanding of events; in this case a better understanding and positioning of the various Civil War battles that are included in the book.
    What was it like to pass as a soldier in the Army of the Republic?
    I read the whole book, so I cannot say it didn't draw me in, but something was not in balance. Some of the characters were not believable and the story did not entirely hang together. I appreciate the plot line-woman of the time has no room to escape her fate so she becomes a man and ends up as a soldier almost accidently. But it is imagined and it just wasn't a great read for me. The religious aspects were so prominent, it made the characters not sympathetic, though probably accurate. Best viewed as a piece of woman literature to inform how far women have come.
    This is not my favorite kind of book
    This is not my favorite kind of book, but I found it interesting. I was wondering about the truth of the cleanliness of the battle field hospitals, etc., especially after watching Mercy Street on TV. Perhaps the Union facilities were better than the Confederate? That would surprise me, but I suppose it could be. Perhaps I would have enjoyed it more if I could have identified with the heroine, but it was hard for me to imagine that character. Still -- an interesting historical novel.
    Good historical read about the Civil War
    Nicely written as a novelized biography of one of the women who disguised themselves as men in order to serve in the army during the Civil War. The author at the end mentions which parts are based on facts and where he had to speculate. Definitely enjoyed reading it.
    The author did a great job with handling the main characters motives and adventures
    This was an interesting historical tale about a woman who serves in the civil war as a man. It's well written and interesting. The author did a great job with handling the main characters motives and adventures. I would recommend it to anyone interested in history.

    It's the first century AD, and Marcus Didius Falco, ancient Rome's favorite son and sometimes palace spy, has just been dealt a lousy blow from the gods: the beautiful, high-born Helena Justina has left him in the dust. So when the Emperor Vespasian calls upon him to investigate an act of treason, Falco is more than ready for a distraction. Disguised as an idle vacationer in the company of his best friend Petronius, Falco travels from the Isle of Capreae to Neapolis and all the way to the great city of Pompeiiwhere a whole new series of Herculean events - involving yet another conspiracy and a fateful meeting with his beloved Helena - are about to erupt.
    Lindsey Davis' Shadows in Bronze is historical mystery at its best.

    I love this series!
    Great characters, great author, the reader a little inconsistent with names, but fine overall. Excellent!
    Bring back Kristian Rodska
    Is there anything you would change about this book?
    Simon Prebble's well modulated narration is NOT Falco. Kristian Rodska will be forever Falco in my mind!
    How did the narrator detract from the book?
    Too 'plummy' and plodding for the voice and pace of the book.
    Vivid story telling, narration a bit plodding
    The author has a great sense of time and place and has done her research, which is deep enough to engage the listener well beyond the bare window dressing prevalent in too many novels set in this period. Have to love Falco's wry sense of humor, which is reminiscent of modern classic detectives without being out of place. At times, the pace of the story was leisurely and the plot is fairly complex, but this is a novel to be savored, not a racy potboiler with lots of heavy handed artificial suspense. I figured out the major plot twist before it was revealed, but that's because the author makes an honest presentation of the facts of the case and doesn't resort to phony deus ex machina to surprise the reader. The romantic aspects of the book may put off some listeners who are only interested in slam bam action, but I thought it charming & insightful
    I found Simon Preble's narration to be adequate, but much too slow. I had to turn up the playback speed to 1.5x to make it listenable. The character voices were pretty well rendered, but Falco's first person narration was often not as quick and lively as the material warranted. There are several other well known narrators I would have preferred for this reading.
    Sad
    What did you love best about Shadows in Bronze?
    This is a great series but this new narrator is not for this series. He just kills it. Gordon is a wonderful narrator for this great series. The older books are super but hard to find.

    I've enjoyed the Diana Gabaldon series in English and now am moving to the German editions as I have with Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. Perhaps one day I will be able to enjoy the book in Spanish? This is a great way to build up your foreign language vocabulary...with a story that pulls you in and wraps you up within its warm embrace!
    Einfach super...
    Vor Jahren habe ich die Highland Saga zum ersten Mal gelesen,
    war damals schon begeistert, und bin es auch jetzt wieder!
    Weiter geht's mit Teil 2 :-)
    I cannot speak German
    Did not intend to order this book. I cannot speak German. Don't know what to do with it now. I enjoyed the book in English.
