kept me guessing

Great story! I couldn’t put it down. I thought I had it figured out but still had a surprise at the end. As always Mark Nelson is a five star reader
Delightful Cold War Tale
A LibriVox Listener
Excellent reader, as always. Engaging story written within the Cold War Era and with a Cold War flavor. Surprise ending.
Really enjoyed!

Very enjoyable. There was no super confusing plot or words that you need a thesaurus just to understand what was said.. Just a great well thought out easy listening story. Would definitely recommend 👌 Well read as always by Mark Nelson. I say that so often now it's almost a given 👍
well read but a bit predictable

Mark nelson read it very well! The story would have been really great if i hadn't been able to figure out the plot 1/3 of the way through the story.
independence day circa 1960

the only good thing I can say about this story is that it was read by Mark Nelson. I love 1950's and 60's scifi but this is just masochistic drivel, go ahead listen for yourself. I dare you to hear the whole thing. That's five and a half hours of your time you will want back.
not very clever

the narrator is superb. the story is interesting at first, but when some "scientific" ideas come to play its starts to be ridiculous. more so.the idea of everyone being able to blow up any explosive in the world from distance and stop any car from moving from distance is to bring eternal piece.
wonderful

Another exciting tale by the author. I had figured out part of the ending long before, but not the details. And the reader's voice matches the methodical calm Lockley.

Managed to stay awake for a lot of it. No mean feat. Looked forward to story. Main spoiler was the side love- none interest as another listener has commented on.
