About this listen

The epic novel of espionage, betrayal and turbulence in 1960s Hong Kong by the #1 New York Times bestselling author and unparalleled master of historical fiction, James Clavell

Taking place over the course of an eventful week in 1963 Hong Kong, James Clavell’s Noble House is a masterfully woven novel of true suspense.

Ian Dunross, the current tai-pan of the illustrious yet financially troubled Struan empire, is racing to undo the damage his predecessor left behind and to once again stand on stable ground. And he’ll do whatever it takes—including striking a hard-fought deal with an American millionaire. But his rival, Quillan Gornt, has other plans. Suddenly caught in a dubious plot involving Soviet spies, Hong Kong’s criminal underground, and the hostile takeover of his company, Dunross holds nothing back in the fight for the Noble House.

Espionage, mayhem, and high-stakes betrayals make Noble House Clavell’s most prolific and imaginatively crafted narrative in the Asian Saga.

Fantastic listen, you'll fall in love with some and detest others, you'll believe the truth only to be proved wrong. The journey sucks you into the vortex of easy money and unlimited power. Choosing not to read this book will be a regret you'll never know!

Many characters, many plots, disaster and triumph,

I loved the way that each character had a distinct voice that clearly portrayed the influence of being Asian, English, European or from the States. A must for anyone who has read the book as Hong Kong comes to life.

Outstanding

An incredible deep/thorough story, with twists and turns that I didn’t expect. Narration was superb as I’ve come to love and respect, it really brings it to life. Thoroughly worthwhile read

I think this is the best audible book in my vast collection. Brilliant novel, expertly delivered, (despite the odd dodgy Scottish accent) . I'm sad it's finished. it's a good job there are two more left in the series

Read it years ago, so much better in audio

Exceptional and original work with characters that felt as though you had known them all your life. The Narrator brought this to life with a range of voices and characterisations that have to be heard to be believed. My only complaint is that I have now completed the whole series......I suppose I will have to start again. Thank you for a brilliant series of books...…"Four Finger Wong" Really !!!..... Loved all of it. Mr. Stephen D. Woods-Shepherd. M.Sc., B.Sc. (Hons.).

Always loved Clavell’s novels and this was another great one. Loved the performance too! I’m now going to look forward to the last one or two I’ve not read or listened to.

Rich and elaborate story
