Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Al Roker’s narration is the star of this audiobook. His ability to convey the weight of history while maintaining a conversational tone never falters, making you feel like he’s speaking directly to you from the past. The flood’s build-up, described in chilling detail, keeps you on the edge of your seat. However, some sections feel slightly rushed, particularly during the climax. Despite this minor critique, the overall experience is a powerful reminder of history’s impact on our present. Whether you're a fan of Al Roker or just love well-narrated historical stories, ‘Ruthless Tide’ delivers an unforgettable listen.
