Bravo from Borneo


(4 stars)

Another enjoyable GA Henty book containing a few tales, all well read by the narrators. I appreciated the historical context set in 1800s Asia and insight that the author provides.

well read


(4 stars)

I enjoyed these stories and the reader. The English Colonialism point of view got irritating, but nonetheless, it remained interesting.

Good book


(5 stars)

This is an unusual book. The first section of 11 chapters is one story, and the rest are short stories, but they are all exciting and end well. I really enjoyed the book. The readers are also excellent. Mike reads the majority of the chapters and is a wonderful reader; his voice is well-modulated and expressive. All in all a great book. Enjoy!
