About this listen
Forget James Bond. Forget Jason Bourne. Forget Jack Bauer. Meet Victor. He's an assassin - a man with no past and no surname. But when a Paris job goes spectacularly wrong, Victor finds himself running for his life across four continents, accompanied by a woman too beautiful to trust, pursued by enemies too powerful to escape.

Surprised and pleased
I gave been enjoying David Baldacci and Vince Flynn novels.
Protagonist is a good guy.. You want him to win.
This has the main character as an assassin out for No 1..
So my thoughts were of Day of the Jackal .. (didn't like the assassin in the movie.) and a little reluctance .
However reasonable quickly found it an enjoyable and fast paced action book
Just ordered the next one in the series .
Great narrator. Good variation of pace during action/suspense parts ..
Accents not overdone but distinguish well the different character .
(helps that there are various nationalities in play) ..

Great story, Great narration.
The story is riveting to say the least, the characters are well distinguished by the narrator and I found myself clued to the earpiece. Highly recommend this book.

The accents are as bad as the reviews suggest, but
Reading the reviews beforehand, the American accents were slammed. Listening to the book, yes they were bad, pretty terrible even. All the American characters had overly macho personas. But... if you can get past the accents, the story is not bad, fairly light hearted action, kind of Bourne-esk. I liked it enough, but the narration has held me back from purchasing a second book but the author.

Listening to a story should help one sleep
Listening to stories at night has helped me deal with chronic pain, not this one! It was so compelling I had to listen to the whole story. The ending, the last half a chapter was disappointing but overall a brilliant story read expertly. Thanks

Great story read by a great narrator
What did you like most about The Hunter?
Very detailed but maintained the intrigue and fast pace
Have you listened to any of Daniel Philpott’s other performances? How does this one compare?
No first one ... but very well narrated
Any additional comments?
First Tom Wood book I've read (listened to) and I will definitely pick another

great book...want more!
I really loved this book. The story pulled me through, listening whenever I could. The performance was great, the narrator did well to ensure you knew which character was speaking. I definitely can't wait to read (listen to) another book from this author.

Fun listening for big boys
Narrator made the book fun and interesting .
The hero Victor is over the top but entertaining.
Reading it would probably be a pain.
