THE LONE WOLF The Lone Wolf, Book 1

Jack de Golia narrates the introductory novel in the Lone Wolf series. First published in 1914, the series features the Lone Wolf, Michael Lanyard. De Golia performs with appropriate objectivity, engaging listeners despite the dated language. Revelations of Lanyard's disturbing early history add credibility to his development into a jewel thief. When a group of underworld types tries to coerce him into joining them, Lanyard decides to "go straight" and seeks revenge upon the criminals. De Golia handles the period descriptions and archaic dialogue with ease, slipping smoothly into the milieu of the story. Over the years there have been 24 films and numerous radio and TV shows featuring the Lone Wolf. With this new one, de Golia's audiobook performance makes Lanyard believable and entertaining.
