Sailor Bob Sherman has his hands full trying to save the ocean yachtBonitofrom capsizing in hurricane waters off Venezuela's coast-no thanks to the know-it-all attitude and incompetence of the vessel's captain. Sherman's rugged good looks and seafaring skills at least bring him the attentions of Phyllis Marmion, a raven-haired beauty and daughter of the yacht's owner. Unfortunately, Sherman's also the bitter enemy of the girl's father who, with the support of corrupt officials, had stripped him of a highly profitable drilling business and taken his land years before. More's at stake than oil fields when the ship is attacked by modern pirates and are all taken captive. Soon Sherman, crew and passengers find themselves in a dungeon jail on an uncharted island known locally as the Island of Death-a place where no one escapes, and Sherman's futile efforts have marked him for an early death.… (mais)

The story captivates you and pulls you in. Listening to Sea Fangs brought me back and reminded me of the old radio shows I used to listen to. This is due to the story telling style, and not the quality of the audio, which I found to be superb.

The upside to the audio is that i can do other things while I follow along. This story still managed to disrupt my life, and I lounged around as the story unfolded. I didn't want to do anything but listen, and that isn't normal for me. ( )

I listened again to this story on audio book to freshen it in my mind.

The sound effects are a truly amazing compliment and quite abundant due to the setting on the sea during a hurricane at the onset and various shoot outs later with fine detail on the lesser events with doors opening or stones dropping. I have a set of Sony studio monitor headphones (MDR-V6) that I am very happy with that do a great job with helping me enjoy every nuance of the sound experience. (Better equipment will enhance your realistic experience).

Bob Sherman and Phyllis Marmion are the main characters who make the main story line, performed impeccably by Shane Johnson and Kristin Proctor.

Bob is the tough seasoned adventurer and mariner and Phyllis the romantic adoring heroine who comes to the fore more than once when Bob is in a pinch. And she comes up big and unexpectedly in a small boat with a machine gun without too much fuss or loss of composure just doing what she thought was needed to help out.

When they are separated she is quite capable of her own thinking and seems like a gal trying to get to a dinner date (or wedding), cutting down the enemy and staying ladylike and concerned for Bob all the while. Circumstances make Bob a tough date, but why mess up the dress much in the way too? It is pulled of so perfectly.

Very well done and good execution of the story line by all performers. ( )

He was an extremely good storyteller, he maintained fast action very effectively.

The teeth of the hurricane shook the plunging "Bonito" from stem to stern each time the dripping bows uprooted the gray, hurtling seas.
