About this listen

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

Tens of thousands of years ago: a fist of stone punches through the Earth's atmosphere and falls on the snowy wastes of Greenland - its deadly secret waiting to be found by man...


The discovery of a radioactive meteorite in Greenland sends Juan Cabrillo and the crew of his hi-tech ship Oregon - in Iceland to seize a nuclear weapon from terrorists - on a second rescue mission: to retrieve the dangerous stellar object before someone unlocks the terrible properties it holds.


Unfortunately, Cabrillo is too late to prevent a fanatical group from spiriting the orb away. Now Cabrillo and his team aboard the Oregon have two problems: preventing the detonation of a nuclear bomb in London on New Year's Eve, and getting their hands on the meteorite before a madman uses it to start World War III...

Another Cussler Classic

As with all Cussler books the hardest part is putting it down to attend to life matters outside of the book

Good story, really bad accents

The story is typical Cussler; full of action and tension. But the performance by the narrator and actors providing the characters’ voices leaves much to be desired.

Voice characterisations

Narratives were OK but the readers voice characterisations were terrible. The story was great as always.

Great Story, Average Narration

You'd think a narrator would learn the pronunciation of a countries name before recording. Listening to 'Qatar' pronounced 'Cuttar' was a struggle.

Enjoyable BUT!

Enjoyable but at times the voices were strained & verging on the comical.
Am glad Cussler uses less formal means of addressing key characters in more recent tales from Oregon Files.
This early account was a little stilted & stuffy.

poorly narrated

narrative was poor and sometimes read too fast without a feel for the story sounded like a documentary

Appallingly narrated. Cringeworthy.

Thankfully this narrator is no longer doing the Cussler books.. This guy is terrible.
