About this listen

Ambushed and drugged, Evan Smoak wakes up in a locked room with no idea where he is or who has captured him. As he tries to piece together what's happened, he receives a desperate call for help. With time running out, he will need to out-manoeuvre a powerful opponent to have any chance of escape. He's got to save himself to protect those whose lives depend on him...or die trying.

I've just finished Harry Potter, narrated by Stephen Fry. Scott does a good job narrating The Nowhere Man, if I hadn't just listened to Stephen's rendition of the Potter series, it would have been 5 for performance too. The pace of the story is good, the action ebbs and flows but there is never anything (slow) you'd really want to skip through as happens with some stories. Again, Scott reads it well and puts useful colour into the narrative. Clear, good pace and expression of the narration.

... I'm feeling bad about that 4.

Enthralling storyline, well narrated

have read a lot of this genre and this stands up well. what i most appreciated was the narrator. being a non-American I usually find the macho aggro tone of narrators of tough guy stories irritating. Scott Brick is a welcome change from this. Story was engaging enough, though as usual with smart and unrealistically capable hero, that i will probably get the sequel but not bother with the prequel novel

great narrator, interesting story

Overall a good story line bur overly drawn out in some sections. The character made some decisions that I thought didn't fit in with the intensive training he'd grown up with.

Frustrating at times.

I like complexity of the problems the protagonist faced.
The voice quality was superb.the evil were truly evil.

gripping cliffhangers

However, reading this series just makes it all the better.
Great story, very exciting. Kinda James Bond without being a wanker.
I will read this series back to back.

I could listen to Scott Brick read the phone book.

The second of the of an Xbox, it was an enjoyable continuation. The character and the overall story arc are quite engaging. Sure, it's a bit airport fixity, but still, a bit of fun. I'm looking forward to the next one.

I enjoyed it
