Story4.5 out of 5 stars 448
Court Gentry is known as The Gray Man—a legend in the covert realm, moving silently from job to job, accomplishing the impossible, and then fading away. And he always hits his target. But there are forces more lethal than Gentry in the world. And in their eyes, Gentry has just outlived his usefulness. Now, he is going to prove that for him, there's no gray area between killing for a living-and killing to stay alive.

Fully armed and with all hands onboard, the nuclear submarine Starbuck sailed into the calm Pacific Ocean for sea trials - and vanished.

Every modern city has one week’s worth of food to feed itself. Then it will collapse. Cut off the resources to New York, Sydney, or even a mid-size metropolis, and millions will soon starve. In Zero Day Code we see those immense and open, hyper-complex, networked supercities of the new millennium die. And in the last moments we see their vengeance take form as all the best and worst traits of humanity bubble to the surface.

Story5 out of 5 stars 53
When the Second World War broke out in September 1939, the British asked Australia for help. With some misgivings, the Australian government sent five destroyers to beef up the British Royal Navy in the Mediterranean. HMAS Vendetta, Vampire, Voyager, Stuart and Waterhen were old ships, small with worn-out engines. Their crews used to joke they were held together by string and chewing gum; when the Nazi propaganda minister Josef Goebbels heard of them, he sneered that they were a load of scrap iron.

Publisher's Summary
The impossible has spawned the unthinkable. In 2021, a quantum military experiment goes horrifically wrong. A multinational taskforce of ultramodern warships is suddenly transported back in time to 1942...right into the path of the US naval battle group bound for Midway Atoll.
History is rewritten in an instant as the future smashes into the past, and high-tech hardware goes head to head with World War Two technology. In the chaos that ensues, thousands are killed, but the maelstrom has only just begun. The veterans of Pearl Harbor have never seen a helicopter or a cruise missile - let alone nanotechnology, ceramic bullets, and F22 Raptor stealth jetfighters.
Allied and Axis forces are then caught in a desperate struggle to gain the upper hand - each hoping to tip the balance with a fist full of 21st-century firepower. What happens next is anybody's guess - and everybody's nightmare.

Some awful accents detract from the story
Most of the time, the narrator is pretty good, but some of his accents are awful. I know the Australian accent can be tough for some people, with an Australian author you are going to have a lot of Australian listeners and I found it painful to listen to. I eventually almost got used to it, but it detracted from what is a great story.

Excellent story
The start of a fantastic series, highly recommended.
Absolutely first rate riveting story. I couldn't put it down. I really like the central premise of the time traveling fleet. The action sequences were tense and suspenseful even and the writing is tight.
While the narration was good he did have trouble pronouncing Tobruk, Alamein, Changi, Sevastopol and feral - I wish someone had corrected him.

Great series with a slow start. Well worth it.
This was the first book I bought on audible and I loved it then, and I love it now. It does have a bit of a slow start to the world at large with everything being chaotic and confused for the first half of this book. That being said it sets up a world and characters that become far more interesting as the main storyline develops throughout the following books.
The original book was published in 2004 yet everything is surprisingly accurate to todays world.
A TV series is also being made on this series and I cant wait for it to come out.

Great story, great performance. Accents are awful
Excellent story by Birmingham. Really thought provoking and a rollicking good story. The only downside is the accents. For some reason, the narrator is unable to do an Aussie accent. Otherwise great

For Australian listeners
Story is not too bad if you ignore the science, but the accents and pronunciations are appalling.

Too long.
Feels like John Birmingham has made this book unnecessarily longer than it should be at over 22 hours. Not much happens in this first of a 3 book trilogy. Feels like a set up for the second/third books

Great story, wierd accents
loved the story and will be getting the 2nd book directly. The general naration was great and read in a strong easy to listen to voice. The only thing that let the recording down was the accents. In particular the supposedly Australian and British voices, they are so bad as to be funny in what apart from an underlying cheekyness is not supposed to be a comedic novel. Would still thourougly recommend both the story and recording

Great story,
Fantastic story and series
The premise of modern day forces going back to WW2 and the impact it has on events and course of the war is really well done
The research depth into the historical characters really took it to another level for me, also the fact this was written 20 years ago, author did a pretty good job predicting tech advancements
My only challenge was with some of the accents, particularly the females

Loved it
As an Ozzie I’m almost insulted by the accent.
The science that created the story scenario is a little glossed over but that’s sci fi for you.
I really loved the consequences of putting people from different times together.
My ww2 vet dad said when he saw a rickshaw being used in Melb “I thought we fought a war to stop that” (a bit racist)
When you slam cultures together you get surprising results.
