Editorial reviews

"Hang on tight!" (Harlan Coben) "Breathless." ( Sunday Times) "An addictive thriller full of gritty details and fast frenetic action." ( Sunday Mirror) "High Energy, action packed reading that'll keep your heart rate high and your attention glued to the pages...To be able to maintain such a high level of action and suspense is a real skill and Simon Kernick is a master of the thriller." ( Damp Pebbles) "A series? By Simon Kernick? Yes please! [A] powerful, fast moving and intoxicating tale." ( Love Reading) "The Bone Field is one of those intriguing novels that surreptitiously gets under your skin." ( Jaffa Reads Too) "An adrenaline rush of a read." ( My Chestnut Reading Tree) "A heart pounding, blood pressure raising thriller...Gird your loins for a fast paced read, full of thrills, spills and unrelenting action." ( Raven Crime Reads) "9/10. When it comes to a white knuckle action ride nobody does it better." ( Peterborough Telegraph) "Judging by the pace, the twists and the turns that energise The Bone Field, it could be a series well worth following." ( Shots eZine) "The only thing that bothers me about that is the long wait until the next book in The Bone Field." ( Off-The-Shelf Books )

I Want Some More!

Fast paced adventure, unpredictable, enjoyable. Violence a little gross at times. Who are the police engaged with this gang? Where is the man with the hat, Mr. Bone? What is the title of the sequal? I want to read it.

Usual fast paced story from Kernick spoiled

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Similar to other Kernick novels this is fast paced and exciting and demands little effort from the listener. This one is spoiled for me by the American references which are entirely out of place as the story is set in the UK and France. Not sure if I'll finish as they distract me.

What three words best describe Paul Thornley’s performance?

Believable accents tempo

Paul Thornley, great narrator! Cheers Paul.

Overall, not bad story. A little odd in the 1st person, but Paul Thornley is fantastic. Can't wait for the second part.
