Amazing book - powerful and confronting
Great story with one of the best narrations I have ever heard. Be warned this is not like Ben Elton’s other works. No jokes in this one. Just a very powerful story that everyone should listen to.

Horrible Setting, Brilliant Story
Ben Elton once again opens a door to a truly harrowing chapter of history in which he has set his fictional story. The events in this book are quite horrific but written so sensitively and with a methodical commitment to the truth of those times. Beautifully read as well.

Pulled on all the strings
Nothing to dislike other than I did not want it to end. Great narrating, amazing story, well written, capturing from the first chapter. Definitely in my top 5 of all time.

Enjoyable
I enjoyed this well researched and gripping book very much. It opened my mind to the incremental changes from the 1920s that lead to the holocaust. My only negative was the use of Monty Python cockney accents for many of the characters.

Wonderful
Ben Elton never writes a bad book. This story is wonderfully written and poignantly details an appalling part of our history.
It’s well read, though do agree with others that the Cockney accents for Germans didn’t quite fit the narrative, though not really sure what the alternative would be for an English speaking audiobook.
Highly recommended.

Absolutely amazing!
Incredibly well researched, gut-wrenching at times, must-hear story with a twist you'll never see coming.
Jot Davies does an amazing job of bringing the elegantly written characters to life.
