About this listen

 Their operations are deniable. Their skill is deadly. SAS hero Danny Black is recruited to an assassination squad directed to hunt down and kill terrorist cells in a gripping thriller from the man who knows what it's like at the front line.

The suicide bomb strikes central London. The trail leads first to a hate cleric in a North London mosque, and his connections to a devout Saudi prince with a taste for hookers, drugs and booze. But it's not only when Danny tracks down his target to a training camp in the Yemen that he finds there may be a connection a hell of a lot closer to home.

Critic Reviews

Ryan chooses fiercely up-to-the-minute plots, and laces them with an exceptional eye for detail and insider knowledge ... Fearsome and fast-moving.
A shockingly authentic tale to keep your adrenaline pumping as fast as the blood on the pages.
Nobody takes you to the action better than Ryan, because he's the real deal, and this muscle-and-bone thriller will have fans' blood pumping.

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.

Terrible narration

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.

Changed voices

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.

Good story but spoiled by the narration
