About this listen

Robert Spire is thrust into an archeological adventure and a search for a ancient relic - an object of immense technological power - missing since historical times. It must be found at all costs, and time is running out...

226 BC: Fall of the Colossus of Rhodes...

The mighty statue of the Greek Titan, Helios, stood proudly in the port of the ancient city of Rhodes, Greece. Built to celebrate Rhodes' victory over the ruler of Cyprus in 305 B.C., it is one of the tallest statues of the ancient world, until it is destroyed after only 56 years. Legend suggests the Colossus was destroyed by an earthquake...But legends can be wrong.

Present Day: A Stolen C.I.A Document...

Langley Virginia: When CIA agent, Dr Vincent Kramer, is found brutally murdered in the facility's parking lot, it becomes apparent that his death is linked to a missing document that was stored in the agency's secret vault - A document detailing clandestine remote viewing experiments on the Great Sphinx in Egypt.

An Explosion Rips Into The Sphinx...

Soon after the theft, an explosion rips into Egypt's legendary Sphinx, revealing a secret chamber within the ancient monolith. Upon discovering that the events are linked, the UK's GLENCOM agency, keen to assist the Egyptian Government with the suspected terrorist attack upon one of the world's greatest historical monuments, sends their agent, ex-environmental lawyer, Robert Spire, together with archeologist and Egyptian-Greek mythology expert, Professor Casey Carr, to Cairo to investigate...

Spire and Casey soon make a remarkable discovery, one which leads the pair on an perilous archeological hunt across ancient Egypt and the war-torn lands of Syria for the remains of the Colossus - one of the legendary Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

A sinister and powerful group of terrorists are also searching for the ancient artifact however, and will stop at nothing to get it, no matter what the cost...

narrative is fine, each 'speaker' is performed as if they are in slow motion. it's quite awful to listen to.
