The Great Secret by L. Ron Hubbard

L. Ron Hubbard wrote books in the 1930’s and 1940’s and who would have thought that in 2013 I would be spell bound by these stories?!?!  

The Galaxy Audio Stories of the Golden Age has done a tremendous job with these stories.  The books on CD have multi-cast performances and are unabridged running approximately 2 hours long.

The Great Secret CD is actually several short stories.  This CD is geared toward Science Fiction.

I love the sound effects. Footfalls, water running, you can hear the people run through the foliage this is watching tv in your mind!! These stories are so engaging I can’t multi-task.  

There is no listening to an L. Ron Hubbard book and surf the Internet, no checking emails.  Nope, I find that I am hanging on every word.  The narrators are amazing, Bruce Boxleitner, Lynsey Bartilson, R.F. Daley, Jim Meskimen, Josh R. Thompson and Chuck White.

The stories are packed with music and cinema-quality sound effects, putting you right into the heart of the story. I can’t wait to start the next CD. 

Fanner Marston was raised a slave as a child, became a petty street thief as a teen, and now masters his own craft and crew as a grown man. He’s also gone completely mad.

Driven by privation, with a vicious greed and slavering lust for power, Marston alone of forty men has survived the perilous trek through a blistering desert to the magical city of Parva, where legend says a secret awaits which will give him absolute control over the Universe.

However, Marston finds the key to all power is not at all what he expected. . . .
