this book is an good one but it is sort of boring at times

Not one of the best Tom Swift stories

(3 Sterne)

I generally enjoy the TS stories, they are similar to the Famous Five but set 40 years earlier during the dawn of modern technology, especially transport technology. Just this particular story has too many errors. For example, they launch a brand new submarine and the first test they do is diving a mile deep to discover they cannot raise to the surface and took no reserve air. They all almost suffocate. Sure a children's story needs action, but the characters almost killing themselves because of this level of stupidity is unbelievable. Many chapters are not recorded by Librivox's finest. I skipped a few chapters read by a little girl with a painfully high and over-enthusiastic voice. There are many better recordings of better TS stories here on Librivox.

Great story but some of the narrators were not to my liking.

Better readers then others

(3 Sterne)

there are couple readers that seem unable to pronounce simple words, it's pretty bad when the reader of chapter 18 who is Chinese and she's speaking a second language pronounce has more words correctly than the people whose first language is English!

the science doesn't hold up. nor some of the geo-politics. Still a fun little adventure
