About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
In the early morning hours of 6th November 1943, SS Reichsfuhrer Heinrich Himmler, receives the coded message he has been waiting for, 'the Eagle has landed.'
It was to become known as the most daring enemy mission of the entire war: Operation Eagle, Himmler's audacious plan to kidnap Winston Churchill on British soil.
But, despite spectacular secrecy, there was to be no surrender without a fight....
For in that remote corner of Norfolk, an elite unit is gathered together. Ready to do battle for a nation against the most ruthless taskforce ever assembled.

Very Entertaining Audio
Very entertaining Audio book. Importantly, you don't require an organisation chart to work out how each character is connected. In the same genre as Alistair Maclean

A well known story read well
While the film provides the excitement and story, the audiobook delivers the full banquet the author provided. Great narration.

Peter Smith
One of the most enjoyable books I have ever read/listened to. From start to finish the characters, the story lines and the included voices was just memorable. I am a Jack Higgins enthusiastic reader but I have just read this after so many others books of his, this being one of his best. It was my first Audible book as well and the voices of Peter Noble throughout were truly enjoyable right to the end. The final chapter topped it all!

One of the best
One of the best novels I have ever “read”,
Well written and an amazing narration.
Had loved the movie as a kid and still do now, but it left out so much.
Highly recommend

True or False?
So well performed by Peter Noble that it held my attention throughout. The speculation about the attempted assassination of Churchill is really enhanced by the storyline and the distinction that’s made between the nazi party and the German soldiers is excellent. To present the storyline in retrospect is a clever move by Higgins. Love this book and will add it to my favourites

The Eagle has Landed
Great story by Jack Higgins, with suspense action and great captivating characters. This audiobook only has on flaw and it’s a nit pick at that almost didn’t think I should mention it at first. The narrator though talented and easy to understand sometimes blended characters with the same voice or accent even though ones Irish, British or German or even female. Subtle but otherwise an excellent audiobook worthy of having in you collection if you enjoy WW2 fiction and action adventure.
