Audio is choppy and skips.

Some of the science, technology and weapons in the story are woefully bad and misinformed.

Needs a better understanding of military tactics and communication to be remotely believable.

Luckily the book was free.

storytelling needs work

To much going on to start and I got frustrated - the middle got better more interesting with the characters - writing and descriptions were fantastic but this book was too far fetched for me - more James Bond & Jason Borne stories x

Hmmmmmm

Enjoyed it, but the some of the action scenes tended to get a bit repetitive, like repeating the word hovercraft. I did finish it in a few days tho.

Worth a listen
