Story
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.

Publisher's Summary
National Book Awards 2014: Crime/Thriller Book of the Year
Can you commit the perfect crime?
Pilgrim is the code name for a man who doesn't exist. The adopted son of a wealthy American family, he once headed up a secret espionage unit for US intelligence. Before he disappeared into anonymous retirement, he wrote the definitive book on forensic criminal investigation. But that book will come back to haunt him. It will help NYPD detective Ben Bradley track him down. And it will take him to a run-down New York hotel room where the body of a woman is found facedown in a bath of acid, her features erased, her teeth missing, her fingerprints gone. It is a textbook murder - and Pilgrim wrote the book.
What begins as an unusual and challenging investigation will become a terrifying race against time to save America from oblivion. Pilgrim will have to make a journey from a public beheading in Mecca to a deserted ruin on the Turkish coast via a Nazi death camp in Alsace and the barren wilderness of the Hindu Kush in search of the faceless man who would commit an appalling act of mass murder in the name of his god.
This is now the entire audiobook, not in two parts.

Steam Train
Would you listen to I Am Pilgrim, Volume 1 again? Why?
Starts off with a bang and you’re captured straight away. The mystery of the two stories and how they will combine kept me intrigued the whole time. Then towards the end of the book it comes home like a 'steam train'. I went straight to my laptop to get the second volume as soon as I finished.

0/5 for depiction of women
0/5 for uneven depiction of women and cliched writing. 4/5 for plot.
Why? ... for at least the first half the women are all described as very attractive and their looks are generally the first thing we know of them. Men are much more rounded out.
Then we have the first woman not immediately described as attractive and all we know is she is “the obese female nanny”. No other description given other than she is obese. Nada. Later we have partygoers described as “chicks” and no panties. No comparative description of the men. Nada. Once “chicks” is out of the bottle it makes a regular appearance.
Such a shame. Would love to support an Australian author and the character of Pilgrim has such potential if he wasn’t such a dinosaur.
It didn’t help that the narrator on audiobook made everyone sound like some variant of a Muppet. Truly the worst speech narration I’ve heard.

This book should have been left in 2008
Despite glowing reviews and recommendations I could not read past the first page of book 2.
I thought it was unbalanced - anti-muslim and pro-americana.
I think we all know by now that there are goodies and baddies in this world based on birthplace or religious belief.
I wish I had not wasted my time reading book one.

Disappointing main character
I'm not sure if this just hasn't aged well in the last 8 years or if it was always a bit off but I could not get interested in this main character. Other characters are constantly telling you how good this guy is to the pint it makes you sick. meanwhile he is telling you he is humble while telling you he is the best at everything. Then all around he is missing details to create tension that only serve to make you think he is incompetent. Then you have him judging the way women are treated in the Islamic world while describing every woman he meets by their chest size and backside first before he let's you know if he would sleep with them or not. Finally there is some subtle and not so subtle Islamaphobia spread all through the book.

Where is this leading?
From known to unknown and back again, enough facts to make it real and a story that weaves in and out, Terry Hayes has taken the geo-political reality with which we are familiar and entwined within it a minefield of a murder mystery, a terrorist plot and meticulous, intelligent and intuitive investigators to deliver a non-stop ride. A thriller to lose yourself in. Read it - you won't be disappointed.

A case study in sexist descriptions of women
Look, it’s a good crime novel. But the sexist descriptions of women just date the author and work so badly. All women are reduced to their looks. More bad cliches about middle easterners. Your choice if it’s worth listening to anyway!

Simply, bloody brilliant.
Bloody brilliant. Without doubt one of the most complex and contradictory simple stories ever written. I cannot recommend it more.

Great book, awful accents
The story is great, no complaints there and when the narrator is speaking his native accent it’s fine, but all the accents are...cringe! I think the northern English is the worst! It’s bearable.....Just 🤣🤣🤣 but great story, really grabs you, excellently written and threads weave through effortlessly!

A thriller and a half!
One of the best suspense-thriller-drama books I’ve ever read... very satisfying end, although I didn’t want to end... I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys spy work and won’t flinch to violence... the protagonist is one tough pilgrim!
