Publisher's Summary
What happens when a nineteen-year-old boy leaves home and heads into the jungles to evangelize a murderous tribe of South American Indians?
For Bruce Olson, it meant capture, disease, terror, loneliness, and torture. But what he discovered through trial and error has revolutionized the world of missions.
Bruchko, which has sold more than 300,000 copies worldwide, has been called "more fantastic and harrowing than anything Hollywood could concoct." Having lived with the Motilone Indians since1961, Olson has won the friendship of four presidents of Colombia and made appearances before the United Nations because of his efforts. Bruchko includes the story of Olson's1988 kidnapping by communist guerrillas and the nine months of captivity that followed. This revised version of his story is an amazing reminder that simple faith in Christ can make anything possible.

Great story
Highly recommend! I was challenged by the perseverance Bruce possessed in spite of the unimaginable trials and hardship he went through to follow God's call. God really does come through every time!

Good Story
A really neat story of how God used some one ordinary for something extraordinary. It is a story of God's message being told to those who were yet unreached. A really good book.

Great Story But Poorly Read
Enjoyed the story, but almost gave up in the beginning due to Gary Dikeos's reading style. I'm glad I didn't though.

Unbelievable
While the narrator took a bit to get used to (wasn't a fan of his reading in the beginning) by the end i was thoroughly enjoying every aspect of this book. very strongly recommended.

The story was great, the reader got better as the story went on or maybe I just got used to him.

Fantastic Story of Work of the Holy Spirit
Audio is less than ideal until Chap 12...bear with it because the story is worth the listen.

Terrible narration
I am interested in the story but the narrator makes it feel like a news broadcast. I don’t know if I can get through it. Absolutely ruined the book for me.
