Alistair. Maclean THE GUNS OF NAVARONE.
Fontana 0006125077 / 9780006125075 PAPERBACK Good
0006125077 From AudioFile nDon't sit down to listen to this tape until you have a clear ten hours to spare because turning it off is next to impossible. During World War II a small group of commandos sneaks onto a German-held Greek island to destroy a gun battery which guards a strategic strait. The tale is gripping, and Steven Pacy makes it even more so as he narrates in a taut and spare style. Pacy's modulated, crisp British accent, his perfect understatement and timing convince listeners they are hearing a spontaneous account rather than a reading. A perfect choice for audio--particularly as the narrator so successfully captures the drama and characters. R.B.F. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine --Ce texte fait r?f?rence ? l'?dition Cassette. n nBook Description nAn entire navy had tried to silence the guns of Navarone and failed. Full-scale attacks had been driven back. Now they were sending in just five men, each one a specialist in dealing death. n--Ce texte fait r?f?rence ? une ?dition ?puis?e ou non disponible de ce titre.
