Arctic Wings

COPY ISBN
Arctic Wings pits a Canadian Mountie against payroll robbers, while The Green God features old-fashioned intrigue about an undercover American naval officer in 1930s China, but the latter is marred by stereotypical depictions of Chinese characters. These audiobooks are billed as full cast with sound effects and music, but the specific roles played by the actors are unlisted. The musical score is used as background rather than as cannonades, which allows the pulp flavor of these early Hubbard stories to come through.
VERDICT Arctic Wings is recommended for larger libraries; The Green God is not recommended for purchase.
