Publisher's Summary

The classic World War II thriller from the acclaimed master of action and suspense.

One winter night, seven men and a woman are parachuted onto a mountainside in wartime Germany. Their objective: an apparently inaccessible castle, headquarters of the Gestapo. Their mission: to rescue a crashed American general before the Nazi interrogators can force him to reveal secret D-day plans.

Critic Reviews

"A real humdinger. The best MacLean." ( Daily Mirror)
"There is a splendid audacity about Where Eagles Dare, in which a handful of British agents invade an 'impenetrable' Gestapo command post...MacLean offers a real dazzler of a thriller, with vivid action, fine set pieces of suspense and a virtuoso display of startling plot twists." ( The New York Times)

Must listen

A very well written story with superb performance. Love all the points where we are revealed with plots that one never thinks must have been there. If you like suspense and war stories, you will like this one.

A classic

A nostalgic trip back to war stories that we grew up with. If world war 2 excites you, add this to your list of listens.

Best story

relived the thrill I experienced when I first read this as a teen ager and immediately became a fan of Alistair MacLean. Saw the movie many times.

A perfect old genre thriller
Narration takes you to the scene.

Exciting and full of twists

An exciting and taut thriller this one. A good storyline which makes it no wonder that it was made into a movie already. The vocal performance was nice, making the experience quite riveting.
