About this listen

 The world's toughest car race. Twenty-one days of searing heat and rock-hard desert tracks; of blowouts and breakdowns; of subterfuge and sabotage. Ten thousand miles of dust and glory. Driving at breakneck speed over Australia's roughest roads and through the most appalling conditions imaginable, six competitors break free from the pack and fight for the lead, gradually finding themselves entangled in a web of deceit, betrayal and danger. 'Dust and Glory' is best-selling author Evan Green's stirring account of the most gruelling race of them all ‒ a hair-raising, careering ride that accelerates to a gripping and unforgettable finish. Bolinda Audio wishes to advise that this audiobook contains strong language and adult themes which may be offensive to some listeners.©1990 Evan Green (P)2013 Bolinda Publishing Contemporary Fiction Genre Fiction

This is the first book I’ve read by Evan Green and can’t wait to read another. I’ll be choosing one that Bower narrates.
Dust and Glory is gripping from beginning to end, taking the reader on a descriptive, exciting journey around Australia….in the mid 1950s. Love the characters, and how some of them, such as Gelignite Jack Murray and Jack Davey were real-life big names. This book has me wanting to pack up and hit the road.
Narrator Humphrey Bower is my favourite, he is simply brilliant at bringing a book to life. I only came across this book because I googled books narrated by Bower. Anything he reads seems to have a pulse of of it’s own and magnifies the story to its best capabilities - the reader feels the emotions of the characters.

Bower brings justice to another masterpiece
