Summary

ARussian billionaire and his state of the art yacht. His beautiful and sexy supermodel girlfriend. And five dynamic, powerful and famous couples invited on the yacht's maiden voyage.

A senator and his lovely but unhappy wife. A very attractive movie star and his needy ex-waitress girlfriend. A famous black footballer and his interior designer wife. A male Latin singing sensation and his older English boyfriend. And a maverick writer with his Asian journalist female friend.

Could this be the trip of a lifetime? Or a trip from hell?

Whatever happens on the high seas doesn't necessarily stay there.

The Power Trip - take it if you dare.

FANTASTIC!!

Jackie Collins novels are my secret pleasure! You know exactly what you are doing to get and how. The Power Trip is exactly like this. Story is absurd, characters are one dimensional, but I LOVED it!

Jackie's Characters Jump Off The Page (or boat!)

Incredible how a large cast of characters are so distinct. The narration is fun and enjoyable and the glitzy story is all about the very enjoyable journey.

A guilty pleasure:-)

What did you like most about The Power Trip?

I liked theglamourous outfits, the splendid locations, and the multi-ethnicity of the characters. It was also interesting to see all the old stereotypes playing out in a way that isn't offensive.

What other book might you compare The Power Trip to, and why?

I would compare this book with Judith cranthes's "Scruples" because of the amount of sex, and colourful languages used. The plot is fast and the characters air more on the fantastic than realistic. though I'm afraid "Scruples isn't on audible. It could also be compared with Louise Bagshawe's "desire" though I feel that desire is a better researched book.

What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

It was nice to hear different voices narrating the story as it fleshed out the characters more. I thought some of the narators were good but I feel that the accents were not necesarily authentic.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were more thrilling moments than moving moments as the characters were mostly dareing in the pursuit for pleasure or wealth.

Any additional comments?

This book is movie worthy, and great for entertainment. In order to enjoy yourself, it's best not to think too logically as there are certain aspects of the book that might appear unbelievable. A billionaire like Alexander Kasanyenko is likely to have better security on his Yacht such as sensors and self defence bullets that shoot any boats that approach with out warning. The Pirate invasion could have been a little more action packed. Jackie should research more on modern technology in order to write a more convincing thriller. Still, I'm a great fan of her ideas but they need fleshing out a bit more. I would highly recommend it because once you start reading, you just can't stop till you're finished!

Fantastic story

Really enjoyed this novel, it's the first time I've read a Jackie Collins novel and I wasn't disappointed. The only thing I would have changed would have been Flin and Sierra finally getting together at the end but the description for each character was very detailed and I was hooked instantly.

Brilliant!

I loved this brilliant book by Jackie Collins! Sheer entertainment, from start to finish. It was a wonderful idea to employ several narrators, including Jackie Collins herself, as it gives a lovely, individual flavour to each character and really drew me into the story, keeping my attention until the end. For sheer, unadulterated, feet up Audible listening with a good cup of tea and a few delicious biscuits to hand, The Power Trip, is worth every penny!! Thank you, Jackie Collins and Audible!

I love Jackie Collins

One of the narrator's wasn't great but the rest were great. I hope audible does more Jackie Collins soon as there's very few available at the moment. Can't wait to listen to more!
