both blunt and eloquent


(4 Sterne)

If one recalls the title the absurdity in the unfolding story has a clearer context. The moral and spiritual allegory is none too subtle. Not for everyone, fans of spy thrillers least of all who should look for John Buchan instead.

Fascinating Story, Engaging Reader


(5 Sterne)

Very good rendition of the story, with character voices and steady paced reader. A winding journey led by a skilled reader!

Extremely Boring!


(2 Sterne)

While this is a well read book, I find it extremely boring and far too drawn out.

bad audio


(2 Sterne)

aside from the background noise, the narrator whistles his s. Can't listen to that for hours.

A wild, impossible to quantify, adventure.


(5 Sterne)

It’s a wild ride. It may be symbolic, possibly, but I can’t fathom of what. It’s fun, absurd, and frightening in parts. I love it and I hope you enjoy it too.
