Summary

An early warning of disaster brings International Rescue to Peru to assist in relief efforts following a series of earth tremors—and sends the Thunderbirds in search of an ancient Inca treasure trove hidden beneath a long-lost temple deep in the South American jungle!

When Lady Penelope is kidnapped by sinister treasure hunters, Scott Tracy and Parker are soon hot on their trail. Along the way they'll have to solve a centuries-old mystery, brave the inhospitable wilderness of the jungle and even tangle with a lost tribe—with the evil Hood close behind them all the way...

Based on the 1966 novel Calling Thunderbirds by John Theydon.

An Anderson Entertainment production. The original tv series Thunderbirds was created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson.

Thunderbirds are GO!

Ooh I absolutely loved this audiobook; great story with the right balance of characters, story, rescues and excellently performed by the cast. It seemed to be over far too quickly, I was gripped from start to finish. More please!

For the most part it was good

I did enjoy this, although I did have an issue with Lady Penelope. Why on earth does she talk like she does? I've never heard anyone talk like that before. It's not just bizarre it's also extremely annoying! The other thing is some of the sound effects which are odd. For example, at one point one of the characters is supposed to be attacking a casket with a dagger, yet it sounds like he's attacking a large cabinet with a machete. Another is the witch doctor, who is supposed to be giving piercing shrieks that chill the blood, but he actually sounds like someone trying to yodel. Other than this it's actually quite good.

Good, but not perfect.

Any Thunderbirds fan will enjoy a new story from the FAB crew, but I've listened to one of these, a Captain Scarlet one and a Stingray; the Captain Scarlet story was by far a better story.

Whoever voices Lady Penelope does ruin an otherwise very close imitation of the original voices. Overall, great, but not perfect.

Excellent!

What a wonderful version of the book this is. The voice actors are very good as is the music. I would thoroughly recommend you give it a listen. Good for grown-ups who remember the original Thunderbirds on TV or children who want an exciting story to listen to in the car.
