God bless Roger Moore! An outstanding actor, a marvelous James Bond, and a perfection gentleman! Such bearing and grace are not found in many these days, such are the self-centered, rude, and coarse human beings.

Over 100-million Christians have been swept off the face of the earth by wars, and the end is not yet." - rabbiReichorn, speaking at funeral of Grand rabbiSimeon Ben-Judah, 1869.
Excellent! Enjoyed this thoroughly . Brilliant story, I have read quite a few Jack Higgins and are always thoroughly absorbing . The narration by Sir Roger Moore was fantastic as we're his accents of the characters in the story . Performed wonderfully. Could listen to this again and again . Thank you!
So pleased you've brought these gems to us, I look forward to seeing what else might turn up. Thank you so much, good audiobooks are a blessing to many of us out here.
Glad you enjoyed it. What I recommend is to choose anything even remotely interesting and listen for 10 minutes. Usually by then you'll know if you want to keep listening. P.S. I hope the demon overlord didn't find you messing with his computer and dipping your paws into the fish tank. :-)
I was surprised myself by how good his reading performance was. Sometimes you realize how talented an actor is by seeing or hearing them perform outside of what they are best known for.
How could the 'Good Guys' leave every Important Person Unprotected at every turn? After the first Guy was killed you would think they might expect trouble. Then, in the last 15 minutes they suddenly have Radar.
I remember when I was a very small girl. A German pilot has bailed out of his plane above our church somewhere. Unfortunately his parachute didn't open and he came down at an angle into the church wrought iron gates. Sliced him up like a kipper. Terrible. Never forget that.
ATROCITY PROPAGANDA - " Atrocity propaganda is how we won the war. And we're only really beginning with it now ! We will continue this atrocity propaganda, we will escalate it until nobody will accept even a good word from the Germans, until all the sympathy they may still have abroad will have been destroyed and they themselves will be so confused that they will no longer know what they are doing. Once that has been achieved, once they begin to run down their own country and their own people, not reluctantly but with eagerness to please the victors, only then will our victory be complete. IT WILL NEVER BE FINAL. Re-education needs careful tending, like an English lawn. Even one moment of negligence, and the weeds crop up again - those indestructible weeds of historical TRUTH. " - SeftonDalmer (1904-1979), former British Chief of ' Black Propaganda ': Said after the German surrender in 1945 in a conversation with the German Professor of lnternation Law Dr.FriedrichGrimm.
A good book isn't great when it's abridged. I would never read or listen to a book that has been cut to pieces. Especially when written by Jack Higgins and read by Roger Moore. Cheers
Uufff, you do realize that's exactly what the editor did in the first instance. What if a single sentence was removed ? Would you read it still with the same resolution?
Great book. Too bad I know about the VI after a storm. And the St. Thomas hospital? Lucky anyone survived it, especially now as it's still wrecked from the 2017 storms. St. John isn't all that exclusive, either.
Not bad, but some of the elements of this plot are ludicrous, the lack of caution demonstrated by the main protagonists ( who are supposed to be intelligence professionals ) is just unbelievable, again and again they partake in actions that make little sense ( they leave their seaplane unattended , they leave the girl who knows where the sub is unprotected after the opposition are killing off people with wild abandon, once they have the documents they take zero precautions to stop it being stolen , there are no agents to back them up yet this is a vital operation ... why? ) there are so few precautions taken its obvious they are simply just there to act as plot devices. This is just sloppy writing. Cant agree that Moore does a good job, much of the time during the action scenes he runs sentences into each other, timing is everything, in this case, its absent about 20% of the time. hes not bad, but he could have done a much better job.
I agree it is an hodgepodge story because of the lack of the correct precautions of the protagonists. I do not agree that Sir Roger did any other than his best and his best is more than good enough for an abridged version. However it must have offended his sense for the storyline. The Saint would not have made such gaffs and Bond would have laughed at such incompetence.
Growing up Jack Higgins was my favourite author. Thanks for sharing this and Roger Moore, what an exceptional narrator and actor.
God bless Roger Moore! An outstanding actor, a marvelous James Bond, and a perfection gentleman! Such bearing and grace are not found in many these days, such are the self-centered, rude, and coarse human beings.
Let's not forget 'The Saint'. He was great in that!
Agreed entirely.

I do (listen to it again and again)! I love hearing the plot develop each time. And yes Roger Moore brought it alive. Cracking actor.

Good old Roger what a voice compelling to listen too .
Loved this. Good story well read by Roger Moore. RIP
Thank you, Sir Roger. Such a superb narrator. Also a good story.
I was surprised myself by how good his reading performance was. Sometimes you realize how talented an actor is by seeing or hearing them perform outside of what they are best known for.
I think he didn't take life to serious ' and I think he was one of the best James bonds ' 👍👍👍
I can hear Moore's eyebrows raising and falling. Amazing.
Outstanding! RIP Jack Higgins
Shallow German boat story?
Hear Hear, wonderful 📚
Loved this book, as with all Jack Higgin's books.
Grand adventure, with irreplaceable narration by Roger Moore.
I recently finished listening and Roger Moore gives a remarkable voice performance. It led me to start watching "The Saint" series.
What a great reader he was.

Wonderful voice, great narrator.
Brilliant story so very well read by Sir Roger, couldn't sleep after listening so had to hear the whole story at once 👏

Is there a sequel to this novel?
I loved it.

@@fw6667 quite right, we should of been far more welcoming.
This book is for kids but Roger Moore is good
Then I am a kid!
R.I.P Sir Rodger Moore
Most enjjoyable

Oh BTW you lot should read the book ,, MAGNIFICENT,
That's "Sir" Roger Moore.
Not if you don't buy into that British BS.
Higgins name is spelled wrong in the thumbprint.
Thanks, got it fixed on the thumbnail but not on the video (too lazy).
@@greatbooksontape782 Nobody is that lazy.
Why is Jack Higgins surname spelt with an E??
Good catch! My mistake. I'll have to fix it. For your reward you get to listen to all future GBOT uploads for 50% off. :-)
Who's Jack Higgens? A mate of Jack Higgins, perhaps?
His evil twin. I blame my left hand.

Corrected, thanks. I also misspelled Higgins on the video but had already deleted the images and was too lazy to redo it.:-(
Eva Braun..Brown?
Such a dull and poorly-written story, rescued by an exceptional performance by Roger Moore.
Not bad, but some of the elements of this plot are ludicrous, the lack of caution demonstrated by the main protagonists ( who are supposed to be intelligence professionals ) is just unbelievable, again and again they partake in actions that make little sense ( they leave their seaplane unattended , they leave the girl who knows where the sub is unprotected after the opposition are killing off people with wild abandon, once they have the documents they take zero precautions to stop it being stolen , there are no agents to back them up yet this is a vital operation ... why? ) there are so few precautions taken its obvious they are simply just there to act as plot devices.
This is just sloppy writing.

This isn't THE worst book I've ever read but it's one of the worst.
Yes, agreed. Both narrator and author appear well past their best.
I thought it was a real story.....
Lovely voice, but pathetic story.
Mr. Patterson was in the army and Calvary and did security along the east German wall.
Calvary?
