Publisher's Summary

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Golden Buddha by Clive Cussler with Craig Dirgo, read by J. Charles. 

When Cabrillo and his ship are hired by the US government to find an ancient statue known as the Golden Buddha, stolen from the Dalai Lama in 1959, the stakes couldn't be higher. Success or failure will determine the future of Tibet. 

Playing the Russians off against the Chinese while battling against mysterious forces who will do anything to stop them, the crew of the Oregon face a formidable foe. But like his extraordinary ship, the enigmatic Juan Cabrillo has more than a few aces up his sleeve....

Narration

I could not finish the first book and passed the second book Sacred Stone as the Narration was one of the worst l have encountered, l can understand why Clive Cussler moved to the brilliant narration of Scott Brick. Clive Cussler is a brilliant writer, l will enjoy the rest of the Oregan series

Not bad for the introductory book

This book introduces the crew and the special features available to the good guys, which makes it a bit meh in places. But it still packs a punch with an enjoyable storyline.

Great Book. Narrator Ordinary

I am a long time Cussler addict and have read all the hard copies. This is an amazing story that keeps you on edge.

where it falls down sadly is the narrator. Given some characters are from Asia. The Narrator insists on performing it with a cliche accent mispronouncing words etc. it comes off as cheesy and somewhat disappointing/offensive.

Good first book to the series.

This was my first book by narration. The narration was hard to adjust to initially. Punctuation was incorrect and made it difficult to follow the story sometimes.

The story itself was easy enough to get caught up in, however it does become difficult to follow along with some of the subplots and characters when there is little change between the voicing of each.

I don't know what to say.

I tries, I gave it a few good hours but in the end, I had to close my eyes and think of another book. I instantly forgot who any of the characters were, aswell as most of the plot. I couldn't recommend it however I can't its bad, possibly just not my style of book.
