Great Losten
Excellent story as would be expected from Dick Francis..this may be one of his best. Expertly read by Tony Britton.
Only spoiled by some poor technical quality here and there.

Excellent as always!
Dick Francis at his best and Tony Britten good narrating. Yes the recording is not great but it doesnt detract from the gripping storyline.
My only problem with the narrator is his dreadful rendering of female characters - but I have learned to endure it as the rest is so well read!

Great story- Audio funky at times
Audio was abit patchy earlier in the story but gets better. Also, the man reading starts low in his voice at the start of every chapter and goes up an octave throughout the following pages. So some performance inconsistencies- however it was an engaging storyline.

An excellent plot; brilliant.
Great plot and beautifully narrated. Some background noise, at times it sounded like it was being narrated under water.

Brilliant as always
Great story and narration as with most DF, shame about the sound quality though, which is awful, not enough to stop me listening though.

Another stunner from Francis
Dick Francis rarely disappoints me. This is one of my favourites among his novels. As usual, his central character is a man of decency and integrity, and immensely likeable; I particularly enjoyed this one's relationships with his work colleagues and others, and the mature and balanced way in which he deals with his wealth, not allowing it to interfere with his life, which he wants to count for something. He is tenacious in the face of danger, and it is gratfying to see the villain progressing unknowingly towards his defeat.
The Canadian backdrop is a delight. Dick Francis has an obvious love for the country and people, making this a heart-warming novel.
Enjoyable in the extreme!

O three thousand miles over Canada
I love Dick Francis books but The Edge was special - I worked for Air Canada in London for 25 years in which time visited lots of the places mentioned right from the East coast to the West coast - I am now retired and don't travel as much but this book took me back on a very happy journey right from Toronto to Vancouver - I with my family travelled on the train from Calgary where we stayed at the Chateau lake Louise - we then went over the Rockies in the glass topped carriage To Vancouver - however as on special discounted tickets (airline discounted ) we had to sit in seats no luxury sleepers for us - also travelled on the 15.00 LHR TO YVR many times - I felt that I also was on that train again and in Canada - thank you.
