Resumen del Editor
Thomas Block has created Captain - his most ambitious, intricate, and action-packed aviation tale yet. It is a chilling and all too real story about a routine Trans-Atlantic airline flight that suddenly turns absolutely insane.
In the doomed airliner's cockpit, inside the passenger cabin, and on the ground, a complex array of characters have been propelled at jet speed into a sudden and frantic race for survival.
Captain is a story that pits man against man and man against machine. It is about the need for human judgments, hard-learned experiences, gut feelings, and unbridled perseverance in an effort to rise up against a world where the strict adherence to written rules, regulations, and procedures have been accepted as the norm.

Concealed deep within China's inland borders is one of the most secret airplanes ever flown, known as Devil Dragon. She's sleek, unbelievably fast, and mysterious - her test pilots have one mission in mind: make her test flights successful for operational use as soon as possible. Or sooner. But when strange transmissions of pilots are recorded without an aircraft appearing on radar and bizarre cell phone signals are detected at towers hundreds of miles apart, Ford Stevens is asked to take on the most dangerous assignment of his life.

Historia
Boarding an airplane strikes at least a small sense of fear into most people. Even though we all have heard that the odds of being struck by lightning are greater than the odds of perishing in a plane crash, it still doesn't feel that way. Airplane crashes might be rare, but they do happen, and they’re usually fatal. David Soucie insists that most of these deaths could be prevented. He’s worked as a pilot, a mechanic, an FAA inspector, and an aviation executive. He’s seen death up close and personal - deaths of colleagues and friends that might have been prevented if he had approved certain safety measures in the aircrafts they were handling.

Helicopter pilot Sara Denning joins an all-male navy battle group with little fanfare - and that's just the way she likes it. Her philosophy is simple - blend in, be competent, and above all, never do anything to stand out as a woman. But somewhere along the way, she lost herself - her feminine, easy-going soul now buried under so many defensive layers, she can't reach it anymore.

In August 1968 NASA made a bold decision: In just 16 weeks, the United States would launch humankind's first flight to the moon. Only the year before, three astronauts had burned to death in their spacecraft, and since then the Apollo program had suffered one setback after another. Meanwhile, the Russians were winning the space race, the Cold War was getting hotter by the month, and President Kennedy's promise to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade seemed sure to be broken.

On May 2, 1970, a DC-9 jet with 57 passengers and a crew of six departed from New York's JFK International Airport en route to the tropical island of St. Maarten, but four hours and 34 minutes later, the flight ended in the shark-infested waters of the Caribbean. It was, and remains, the only open-water ditching of a commercial jet. The subsequent rescue of survivors took nearly three hours and involved the coast guard, navy, and marines.

An Audible A+ Listening Experience Thrilling!
What did you love best about Captain?
I got so involved in the story, I was startled by the knocking on my passenger side window as I sat in my car, in the garage, the engine off, in the dark, listening to Captain. I was mesmerized by the need to find out what was going to happen in the gripping drama unfolding to the characters I had come to know in the course of the story. The knocking on the window, was my wife. She said I had been in the garage for over 10 minutes and she thought there might be something wrong.
What did you like best about this story?
I think Mr. Block's reading of his own words, significantly enhanced the character development. He has a very pleasing vocal quality and I enjoyed how fluidly he moved from one character to the next.
Which scene was your favorite?
When the words of Lee Frankel (the shrink) were able to calm a passenger uprising, stimulated by Peter Fenton, the 1st Officer.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I was moved by the prologue and the ending.
Any additional comments?
Captain, could only be written by someone with years of experience as an airline Captain. The masterful blending of Mr. Blocks story telling ability and his wealth of flying experience combine to produce and Audible A+ audio book!

A Fabulous Experience from Beginning to End!
What made the experience of listening to Captain the most enjoyable?
The storyline was VERY strong, and the author's narration added a really great quality to it - he conveyed the story perfectly.
What did you like best about this story?
The blending of action/adventure with romance, intrigue and personal insights.
Which scene was your favorite?
Almost too many to mention; the action scenes were all riveting, and the other scenes had absolutely no trouble sustaining reader interest.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Action, Adventure, Romance, Intrigue - Captain has it all!
Any additional comments?
I'm looking forward to listening to more of this author's narrations.

Good book but Horrible reader...
I really liked the story but listening to the author reading was excruciating. Sounded like he was drunk. I suffered through because I liked the story line a lot and wanted to see what happened in the end. The author writes great books but he should never ever read.

Suspense with an aviation theme
What made the experience of listening to Captain the most enjoyable?
The credibility of the aviation scenes
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
I found the pace and plot development to be intense and consistent.
What about Thomas Block’s performance did you like?
Mr. Block presents the narrative of the story in a comfortable voice and is able to vary the dialog enough to develop the characters individually.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
The captain is pilot in command. An airliner in flight is not a democracy.

Thrilling! Engaging! Can't put it down!
What made the experience of listening to Captain the most enjoyable?
Knowing the reader had created each of the characters and was portraying them as he envisioned them...
What was one of the most memorable moments of Captain?
There were too many "seat of the pants" moments in Captain to choose a single most memorable moment.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Absolutely!
Any additional comments?
I've read or listened to a number of Thomas Blocks' books. This is his best to date! I can't convey how exciting almost the entire book was. Thank goodness there were some pauses in the tension!

Good story, but bad narration
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
The story was a bit trite, but enjoyable enough, but the narration was less than enjoyable. The writer tired to save a few bucks by doing his own narration. No offence, but he is no John Nance.
What other book might you compare Captain to and why?
Sort of a MAYDAY style book, but less accurate.
Would you be willing to try another one of Thomas Block’s performances?
Yes, just as long as he isn't the narrator.
Could you see Captain being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
The premmis has bee made into movies several times.

A Captain Hero
An exciting aviation story incorporating human experience in a time of ever increasing AI and the need for both. Accurate and captivating with the storyline excitement increasing all the way to the last words.

Horrible narration
The book uses repetitive phrasing and the voice of the author/narrator is very painful to listen to!
