Unabridged Audiobook
Very interesting and well written even if a bit far-fetched in spots. But then again, I am not, nor have I ever been a spy, so what do I know about far fetched. I enjoyed the characters and fast pace. It made my commute go by quickly.
My second read in the Allon series. This one started slow but ended with a flare. I like the Gabriel Allon character a lot but this would not be the book that I would recommend to introduce the character to a new reader of Silva. With that said, I am hooked on the development of Allon.
Really good story. I found myself wanting to listen after I had gotten home and out of the car. Characters were interesting and complex. The action was steady and uninterrupted. I was not expecting the book to be this good and was pleasantly surprised.
Initially it got off to a slow start but before reaching the halfway point, the reader was turbo charging the action to the point where I could hardly wait to put in the next CD...anytime I can cover 400 miles and stay this entertained, I'm good to go....
Gets off to rather a slow start but I stayed with it and it picked up. Pretty average yarn; not one that you'd get to work and stay in the car for 10 more minutes to keep listening.
