Histoire
The year is A.D. 922. A refined Arab courtier, representative of the powerful Caliph of Baghdad, encounters a party of Viking warriors who are journeying to the barbaric North. He is appalled by their Viking customs - the wanton sexuality of their pale, angular women, their disregard for cleanliness...their cold-blooded human sacrifices. But it is not until they reach the depths of the Northland that the courtier learns the horrifying and inescapable truth.

The year is 1876. Warring Indian tribes still populate America's western territories, even as lawless gold-rush towns begin to mark the landscape. In much of the country, it is still illegal to espouse evolution. Against this backdrop two monomaniacal paleontologists pillage the Wild West, hunting for dinosaur fossils while surveilling, deceiving, and sabotaging each other in a rivalry that will come to be known as the Bone Wars.

Description
In teeming Victorian London, where lavish wealth and appalling poverty live side by side, Edward Pierce charms the most prominent of the well-to-do as he cunningly orchestrates the crime of the century. Who would suspect that a gentleman of breeding could mastermind the daring theft of a fortune in gold? Who could predict the consequences of making the extraordinary robbery aboard the pride of England's industrial era, the mighty steam locomotive? Based on fact, as lively as legend, and studded with all the suspense and style of a modern fiction master, here is a classic caper novel set a decade before the age of dynamite - yet nonetheless explosive....
Michael Crichton wrote and directed the screen adaptation of The Great Train Robbery, starring Sean Connery and Donald Sutherland.

Quite captivating
Not the usual Crichton novel but I enjoyed it just the same. It was fun and engaging. I saw the movie years ago and could only picture Sean Connery as Pierce.
The slang and language took a bit getting used to.
The narrator did an excellent job.

Great Book. Brutal Narrator.
Crichton relates the true tale of the 1855 robbery of 12 Thousand Pounds in Gold from England (pay being delivered to the Crimean Front). He enlivens true-life criminal characters as they plan and execute an elaborate heist - employing ingenious scams to accumulate the tools and personnel to pull it off. The dialogue is gruff and loyal to the period (Victorian England). The events are engrossing and colorfully described. The characters are fascinating. Crichton, who heard about the case while teaching at Cambridge, researched the crime extensively and does a marvelous job bringing the event to life. His prose is overly crisp at times (each word too-carefully chosen), but undoubtedly enjoyable. Unfortunately, the book is read by Michael Kitchen. His cadence quickly becomes annoying and his choices of which words to emphasize baffling. The over-emphasis is distracting. I sped the recording up to 1.10x and it helped somewhat. This intriguing true-crime brought-to-life recording is worth 2.5 stars out of 5. It was a Daily Deal and worth the $4.95 I spent..but it's not likely worth a credit.
