About this listen

W.E.B. Griffin always hits the target- right at the top of the best seller lists....

W.E.B. Griffin's explosive Presidential Agent novels have gained worldwide acclaim for "leaving satisfied thriller readers hankering for more." Now, in Griffin's number one New York Times best seller, the Russian bear is stirring after many years of hibernation - and it is hungry.

This is by far the best of the Presidential Agent series. Since Griffin's writing style is to repeat the important events of this series over and over again, new readers of the Presidential Agent series can skip earlier book of this series and start the adventures of Charlie Castillo with the Black Ops. The narrator is Dick Hill for the first 5 books who does a great job of bring the characters to life. The most recent book of this series is the Outlaws, which continues the story of Charlie Castillo and his new friends, two former Russian SVR spies. I recommend listening to that book after the Black Ops. The narrator of Outlaws is Jonathan Davis, who does a great job as well. Some reviewers have been critical of Jonathan Davis compared to Dick Hill, but I believe he does an equally great job with the characters as Dick Hill did in the earlier books of this series.
I don't know if it was the change in narrators or the addition of WEB IV as co-author, but there is big personality shift in the character of Ambassador Montvale the Director of National Intelligence, who is an arrogant *** in the Black Ops and a good guy in the Outlaws.
I have listened to all of the books in the Presidental Agent series several times and recommend the entire series as well as the Honor Bound series. Both of these series use Argentina as the site for much of the activities, since the author (WEB III) lives there for part of the year.

Typical Griffin

A well written novel that demands your attention. The author does a great job of bringing this adventure to a conclusion, but leaves the door open for future adventures.

Never a dull moment!

With Dick Hill's narration the dictionary would be great entertainment. He is the best. And, a WEB Griffith novel to boot. What an outstanding combination. I found the story to be a bit less impressive than Griffith's Marine series books but it was very entertaining. I strongly recommend the President's Agent series to anyone who wants a memorable and entertaining journey in the high stakes game of politics and black ops.

Super Entertainment

I have read every book that Griffin has wrote, more than once. This book captures every essence of drama and intrigue. I found myself just sitting in my car listing and waiting to see what was coming next. If you like Griffin's novels you will love this, if you never have read Griffin's novels you will want to read everything he has wrote.
This is the first time that I have listen to Dick Hill's readings and his ability to give life to a character was great. I will look for other books that he has done.

Overwhelmingly good

Always enjoy Griffin

Lots of great human interest in the character development in this one, combined with a great plot.
And an excellent narrator.

Maybe the best yet in the series

I loved the series and the characters. I am a big fan of Vince Flynn and Brad Thor and this series is every bit as good. The main character is both intelligent and humble which is a rare trait. The author is a master of discription. This is an absolute must read for anyone who is a fan of the "black Ops" genere.

Outstanding Series
