From Reader Review Saint Overboard for online ebook Federico Kereki says Not one of Charteris' best efforts... the dialogue is fine, but the story is weak. Jim says I came across the book at a stall in Tbilisi. It cost a little more than the 3/6 marked on the back (3 shillings and 6 old pence…17.5 new pence) but only a couple of lari (£0.56). The book was first published way back in 1936, this edition was the 1967 edition. The scuba diving gear on the front cover wasn’t invented until the mid forties, Simon Templar (The Saint) does dive in the book but in a more antiquated diving suit. The Saint also smokes an awful lot, he is often tapping his cigarettes or lighting them throughout the book. The character is a little similar to James Bond, described in the blurb as a “buccaneer”, the action is set around the Channel Islands where the baddie, Vogel wants to salvage the gold from the strongroom of a sunken ship. The plot seems a bit quaint now and dated, our heroes these days are usually less immaculately turned out and less likely to be punching the villains on the jaw to lay them out for a couple of hours. There is a strong love interest for the Saint in the form of Loretta Page, an investigator for maritime insurers Ingerbecks, suspicious at the lack of booty found on salvaged vessels. Simon has his own yacht, fittingly called “The Corsair” complete with his butler Orace. No cars in this escapade. Too early for the Volvo, which I remember as a Corgi Car in my childhood. Simon Mcleish says Originally published on my blog here& in August 2000. Today, Saint Overboard seems one of the most dated of all the Saint stories. It relies heavily for plot and atmosphere on a form of technology which has undergone great development in the past sixty years - diving equipment. In the late thirties, diving suits were cumbersome and expensive; neither the aqualung nor the wetsuit had been invented, and the diver relied on massive metal helmets connected to the surface by an all important air hose which could easily become entangled or cut. Diving was not, as it is today, something which could be undertaken as a leisure activity by any reasonably fit person after a short course of training; it was the province of specialists. Saint Overboard is probably the earliest mainstream thriller to use what was to become a fairly commonplace plot: a conflict between legitimate and criminal attempts to salvage treasure from a wreck, in this case from the strongroom of the Chalfont Castle, on the seabed near Guernsey. Simon Templar becomes involved when he rescues a pretty girl, an investigator for maritime insurers Ingerbecks. There is a strong romantic element in the novel, as indeed there was in the previous one in the series (The Saint In New York); no mention is PDF File: Saint Overboard... 3 Read and Download Ebook Saint Overboard... made of Simon's long time companion Patricia Holm. In The Saint in New York, romance plays an important part in the plot, but here it is more of an encumbrance, and it is not the sort of writing which suited Charteris. Harry Kane says Smashing book; one of my favorite of the more 'mature' style of Mr. Charteris, together with The Saint in New York. In one episode of Big Bang Theory Sheldon keeps obsessing over the historical inaccuracies of a renaissance fair he visits with his friends. Everything is 'wrong' for the period. Finally, they tell him to imagine he is a Star Trek crew member visiting a planet that only vaguely looks like Earth in the past, and this mental trick allows him to stop obsessing, and start to enjoy himself. I would like to suggest something along those lines to people who read this, or any other vintage book, and feel they enjoy it less because it's "dated" in the sense of technology, popular culture, and social mores: just bleeding imagine it's a steampunk fantasy, or a dieselpunk fantasy, or an alternative history fantasy, OK? That way it won't be "dated" anymore, just "flight of fancy". If growing up and enjoying books on their own terms is not an option then at least a bit of mental trickery can maybe heighten the enjoyment. Paul Magnussen says This full-length Saint adventure finds Simon in search of sunken treasure — or rather, in search of people in search of it. The background to the story is impeccably set up. The breadth of Charteris’s knowledge was astonishing: there is even a passing reference to verifying Wegener’s Theory of Continental Drift, which at that point (1936) had collected nothing but ridicule. In terms of continuity there are several references to earlier Saintly adventures, Orace figures prominently, and Roger Conway and Peter Quentin join in. Nevertheless, I like this book much less than other Saint stories of the same period. But I’m not sure why, unless it’s the predictability of the plot and the ordinariness of the heroine; or perhaps there just isn’t as much fun in it. So only three stars, for me. Your mileage may differ. Bruce Blanchard says Another Step in the Saint's Journey For those following the Saint in his buccaneers life, things hang upon his independent actions of falling in PDF File: Saint Overboard... 4 Read and Download Ebook Saint Overboard... love, believing in his gut, and taking matters in his hands. Battle, murder, and sudden death take on a whole new meaning. The Gang is beside him and still it's up to him to finish it. To gauge actions on personal feelings is not an easy choice, but it drives him nonetheless. This is Simon Templar at the mercy of fate. It's up to him to take out the villain Kurt Vogel. The writing of this novel is hard to deal with as it places the others around his life beyond his reach. The villain appears to hold all the cards...until they make a mistake. Vogel is almost unbeatable until Simon uses all to his advantage. Being played the cards of life and death, he takes out another player. I gave this review only 4 stars because the transition in the Saint's life because the transition in Templar's life was hard to deal with and the technical details tended to overshadow the plot itself. Don't let this deter you from downloading The Saint Overboard. Some transitions aren't easy to accept. I will continue to follow the books in their order and look to the journey. Stay with me and I promise to stay with you...until the next adventure, friends. Tiina says Found this book (in Finnish language) in an old books' store. The plot is quaint and a bit old-fashioned, but the writing is solid, enjoyable to read. This one was a real blast from the past - but a good blast. Bettie? says [Bettie's Books The rating, any status updates, and those bookshelves, indicate my feelings for this book. (hide spoiler)] Bear says Excellent, as always. I did miss Patricia Holm in this story, but I suppose I knew it was coming...phooey. Laura says From BBC Radio 4 Extra: The haloed adventurer goes to sea in search of deliberately sunk bullion ships. Stars Paul Rhys and Geoffrey Whitehead. Susanna-Cole King says I think Charteris would have benefited from a better editor or knowing when to kill his darlings. It's not that he can't write well, but he doesn't let his sentences breathe. Each sentence seems to be clamoring for attention, jam-packed with metaphors, and imagery, when sometimes easy would have done it. Interesting plot premise at the beginning, but it becomes a little trite along the way. PDF File: Saint Overboard... 5 Read and Download Ebook Saint Overboard...

Both can be catastrophic, if you make them, when you emphasize the flaws - the rocks - the yellow curtains - the passing motorcar - a pressed flower album And growing up is no easy chore, for then you’ve got the added risk of others on the road.

  • Session 20 Speak
    SESSION 20 SPEAK GOAL The goal of this is session is for the teens to see the communion of saints as their extended family, to understand what it means to be a witness of the faith, and to get to know a few modern saints. KEY CONCEPTS Confirmation calls us to be witnesses of faith and provides us with the graces to do so. Being a witness means being a martyr; martyrdom does not necessarily mean dying for the faith, but requires a willingness to sacrifice and suffer for truth. When learning how to become better witnesses, we should look to the examples of other members of the Church — particularly Mary and the saints. KEY TERMS Martyr: A witness to the truth of the faith, in which the martyr endures even death to be faithful to Christ. Saint: The “holy one” who leads a life in union with God through the grace of Christ and receives the reward of eternal life. SCRIPTURE: 2 Timothy 1:6-8, Acts 2:1-11, Matthew 16:24-27 CATECHISM: 954-959, 963-969, 1302-1304, 2471-2474 ABOUT THIS CONFIRMATION SESSION The Gather is a fun game of Family Feud, which helps emphasize that this is a session about family, namely the communion of saints. The Proclaim teaches about the important role Mary and the communion of saints play in the teens’ lives. The Break gives the teens an opportunity to get to know a saint from our modern era more personally. The Send is a group prayer during which the teens ask the saints to pray for them through one of the Church’s oldest prayers, the Litany of Saints.
