I’m a fan of Benjamin Wallace’s work and absolutely loved Tortugas Rising. It is a wild fast paced nonstop adventure with more than a touch of humor. The story starts with Steve Bennett, a man who is suddenly rich from an inheritance he never expected, and his best friend heading off to see a man-made island he is now the own of. What is supposed to be a relaxing holiday turns out to be anything but. No spoilers, but I will say starting out I would never have guessed where the story was going to lead me. This story would make an excellent movie. And I have to give Benjamin major props, this is the first book I’ve read read/listened to that dropped a Remo Williams reference!!
The book is narrated by the talented Phil Thron and he does a fantastic job. This is the 3rd or 4th time I’ve listened to his work and he never disappoints. Hope to see/hear a lot more of him in the future.
I received a copy of this audio title for free in exchange for an honest review.
