THE GREAT SIEGE OF MALTA

by | Read by Justin Avoth

History • 9.75 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

Expertly narrated by Justin Avoth, and just under 10 hours, this history of the Turkish siege of Malta in 1565 is a good summary and analysis of one of the crucial struggles in Western history. Working with a narrative in which dramatic action is outweighed by critical analysis, Avoth maintains a solid pace and a steady tone, establishing a degree of focus and immediacy lacking in the narrative itself. The Turks' defeat in Malta arrested their westward surge across the Mediterranean--truly changing the course of history. Better renderings of this story exist, but this one, compact and well performed, will satisfy most listeners. D.A.W. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2025]
