About this listen

Harry's life goal was to get into the SAS. When we meet him in 1981 he is in the process of achieving his dream. No sooner has he lived one dream than he bumps into another, Sarah, the love of his life. What could go wrong? Well, quite a lot. For example, an idiot Latin American dictator might invade the Falkland Islands within months of Harry earning the right to wear the legendary winged dagger cap badge.

What would have made Islands of No Return better?

A different narrator

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Poor

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narration was truly appalling. He mis-pronounced many words and had an obvious lack of understanding of the subject.

It was as bad a an amateur effort from Libravox. In fact, scrub that - it was worse.

You didn’t love this book--but did it have any redeeming qualities?

None

Any additional comments?

Avoid this audiobook - read the novel if you wish (the story is no where near up to Philip's usual standard though)

Terrible narration
