Review
The heart-pounding adventure of “The Solomon Curse” immediately sweeps listeners into its world with Scott Brick’s signature narration – a performance that is as much a part of the thrill as Clive Cussler and Thomas Perry’s relentless plotting. Brick’s clear, steady delivery brings Sam and Remi Fargo to life with crisp articulation and just enough dramatic flair to elevate every high-stakes moment. While his range may not be as wide as some narrators’, his consistent energy ensures that the listener remains hooked throughout all fourteen-plus hours.
Cussler’s gift for weaving history, myth, and modern-day treasure-hunting comes alive here in the Fargos’ search for King Solomon’s fabled riches amid the jungles and shadowy legends of Guadalcanal. The story blends whispers of lost empires, cannibal giants, wartime atrocities, and sunken treasures – all set against lush island backdrops that feel both exotic and perilous. The interplay between historical intrigue and action-packed chases keeps the pace brisk for most of the narrative.
As always with this series, it’s not just about what lies beneath the surface; it’s about overcoming countless obstacles – both physical and psychological – that challenge our protagonists at every turn. Yes, there are moments when the plot circles around its central mysteries rather than diving straight into them, but this approach builds anticipation. The tension ratchets up as Sam and Remi decipher clues spanning from the Solomons to Japan – and their run-ins with a colorful supporting cast (including a brooding Russian and an eccentric Englishman) add welcome humor and depth.
If you’ve enjoyed previous Fargo Adventures, “The Solomon Curse” delivers exactly what fans crave: globe-trotting escapades, dangerous adversaries lurking in every shadow, clever twists (even if occasionally predictable), and plenty of archaeological mystique. Newcomers will find an accessible entry point – no need for deep background knowledge – while long-time listeners will appreciate how Cussler continues to balance comfortingly familiar beats with fresh dangers.
All told, this is vintage Cussler: escapist fiction done right with just enough substance to satisfy your inner history buff. Combined with Scott Brick’s reliable narration, it makes for a thoroughly immersive listen – ideal for those who want their adventures larger than life.
