About this listen

When the Lusitania sank, more than 1,000 people died. One passenger, however, survived to become a changed man, giving up his life as a petty thief but keeping a small silver statue that would become a family heirloom to future generations.

Now, nearly a century later, that heirloom, one of a priceless, long-separated set of three, has been snatched away from the Sullivans. And Malachi, Gideon, and Rebecca Sullivan are determined to recover their great-great-grandfather's treasure, reunite the Three Fates, and make their fortune.

The quest will take them from their home in Ireland to Helsinki, Prague, and New York and introduce them to a formidable female professor whose knowledge of Greek mythology will aid them in their quest; to a daring exotic dancer who sees the Fates as her chance at a new life; and to a seductive security expert who knows how to play high-tech cat-and-mouse. And it will pit them in a suspenseful fight against an ambitious woman who will stop at nothing to acquire the Fates.

ok reading of goodc story

great story, narration with accents and voices annoying esp doing male characters. got muddled when too many characters in and imitating male characters got in way of what they were saying, distracting. prefer straight narration.

CLEVER AND ENTERTAINING

A few years old now but absolutely one of her best. A clever and entertaining story where once again history and present day are skilfully melded.

Has it all!

Like: characters are engaging and likeable (or in the case of the villan of the story hate!). The story had it all, intrigue, drama, violence, romance, comedy and everything in between!

Dislike: the attempt at a British accent and also the cockney...atrocious...the Irish and the American were ok and even though a female narrator she did well enough differentiating between male and female characters. Initially felt like putting the audio in the "Do not continue" pile, but persevere as the story itself is great and worth putting up with the terrible accents.

Great Story, badly read

The story is great, as are all by this author. I’m still surprised I continued after the appalling accents in the first few chapters. I thought I would get used to it, thank goodness there were only two British accents in the book - so badly done it makes Dick V-D’s accent in Mary Poppins sound good. Then the other accents compound the problem. I love Nora Roberts’ characters but the reader makes them sound irritating, ridiculous and unliveable. All in all I would not recommend. Buy the book and read it yourself. The story is great but cannot withstand the performance.

not one of her best.

If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more?

those of the nora Roberts fan club.

Has Three Fates put you off other books in this genre?

yes. If I had listened to this title before listening to the bride quartet novels I would not have bought any more titles by nora Roberts.

What didn’t you like about Bernadette Quigley’s performance?

there was no expression in the narration of this book.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Three Fates?

I don't feel that scenes needed to be cut from three fates but some elements needed to be expanded .The characters were poorly drawn.

to be honest I only listened to 90 minutes of this audio book and couldn't take any more.

Any additional comments?

If you are new to nora Roberts work don't make this your first listen. there are much better titles and narrators out there. nora Roberts has written better books than this.
