Publisher's Summary

Following a suicide bombing in central London, series SAS hero Danny Black is recruited to be part of an assassination squad, directed by a joint MI5/MI6/CIA committee and tasked with hunting down and killing the terrorist cells believed to be planning further atrocities. Early leads take them to a North London mosque and a one-armed hate cleric, whom the Home Secretary repeatedly tries and fails to expel from the country, a sleazy Saudi prince living in a Park Lane Hotel - on the surface a devout Muslim, he devotes himself to booze, drugs and hookers as soon as his family are out of the building - and a grizzled ex-Regiment guy who is spreading rumours that Diana was assassinated by the SAS in the tunnel in Paris because of her Arab lover.

The trail of clues takes Danny to a training camp in the Yemen, but just as he has the enemy in his sights, he discovers that they are somehow one step ahead of him, and he begins to suspect that they are being topped off by someone close to home.

Terrible narration

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I enjoyed the narration of first book in the Danny Black trilogy, where he is a young SAS trooper in his early twenties,,,,,and the narrator was able to portray him as that.
Book 2 picks up six months after Black's return from Syria, only now he sounds like a fifty year old bloke who smokes a couple of packets a day and drinks scotch by the bucket load.
Spud on the other hand, sounds like the SAS' version of Barney Rubble of Flintstones fame.

Would you be willing to try another one of Michael Fenner’s performances?

I will listen to the final book in the series, just to complete the story line, but I'm not looking forwards to hearing Keith Richards & Barney Rubble taking me through it.

Changed voices

The biggest issue I have with the audiobook is the change in narrator. Danny has a different voice from the first book, and it is not an improvement.

The narrator has me thinking I am listening to a group of men with speech impediments who kill people with precision.

It is very off putting, and unfortunately I have looked ahead and this narrator has the next few titles under his belt.

Good story but spoiled by the narration

Loved the first book in this series, but the change of narrator in this book ruins the experience, unfortunately.

Accents weren’t well delivered, and the main character’s offsider was given a style of speech that made him sound like a dribbling fool with a speech impediment.

I won’t be buying any more in this series should they be narrated in the same style.

Terrible Narrator

The accents are absolutely howling. Completely destroys the experience. The first book was great as well.
