About this listen

First they tried to kill him. Then they took his daughter

. . . Anthropologist Simon Dracup knows that his only hope of finding her alive lies within the pages of his grandfather's diary, the record of a near century old expedition to Mount Ararat, legendary resting place of the great Ark of Noah. When the CIA pays him a visit Dracup learns that something was found on the Ark. Something priceless. Now its owners have taken it back, but they want revenge and Dracup is their prime target . . . Dracup finds himself plunged into a desperate battle for survival as he hunts for evidence that will lead him to the sinister Korumak Tanri, but even he could not have predicted the shocking truth about the mysterious cult and the ancient secret they are sworn to protect . . .

The premise of this book has some potential, but unfortunately it wasn't realised as well as it could be.
The story was rather unbelievable, rather like an Indiana Jones story, but even more fantastic, it was quite exciting but just too far-fetched for me to really enjoy it
I might have been able to overlook how far-fetched the storyline was if it had been narrated well, but unfortunately the narrator's attempts at American accents were pretty abysmal and this really grated for me.
I did persevere to the end but there were several occasions where I asked myself 'can I really be bothered to complete this book', obviously the answer was yes each time, but it was a close run thing.

OK story, but disappointing narration

The story was very slow and not really believable.
The characters were two dimensional clichés.
I might have persevered to the end (just to get my moneys worth) had it not been for the truly dire narrator with his awful irritating impressions of American accents that come straight out of British 'B' movies from the 50's. It would have been much more acceptable if he'd just read the whole thing in his own voice, as it now stands I will, in future, avoid anything he narrates - which is a shame as it precludes me from listening to several books I might have otherwise been interested in.
One to avoid!

I gave up half way through!
