Question: Has anyone read either of these books and knows some information on them!?!?

I have to read thes 2 books!. Endurance Shackleton's Incredible Voyage, by Alfred Lansing and Murder on the Orient Express bye Agatha Christie!. Endurance is really hard for me to understand so pretty much I'm going to read them but can anyone kind of give me the meaning for each book!?!? Please and thank you!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

I've never read Endurance Shackleton's Incredible Voyage, but I have read the Orient Express!. It is a murder mystery taking place on a train!. Detective Hercule Poirot is on the train when a wealthy American is murdered and he must solve the crime!. It has many twists and turns and the ending is quite surprising, it is not my favorite book by Agatha Christie, but it is still good!.

This is a link where you can find a good description of Endurance Shackleton's Incredible Voyage:

Murder on the Orient Express is a whodunit, a murder mystery!. All these people are travelling on the Orient Express, and then someone gets killed, and Hercule Poirot, the Belgian detective, eventually works out who the murderer is, just like all the Poirot books!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Murder on the Orient Express is a great detective novel, one of the best ever written!.

Endurance: Shackletons Incredible Voyage is very good, but it is not as good as Shackletons own book: South!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
