About this listen

A kinetic standalone from "first-class storyteller" Michael Robotham (San Francisco Chronicle).

Sami Macbeth is not a master criminal. He's not even a minor one. He's not a jewel thief. He's not a safe-cracker. He's not an expert in explosives.

Sami plays guitar and wants to be a rock god but keeps getting side-tracked by unforeseen circumstances. Fifty-four hours ago Sami was released from prison. Thirty-six hours ago he slept with the woman of his dreams at the Savoy. An hour ago his train blew up.

Now he's carrying a rucksack through London's West End and has turned himself into the most wanted terrorist in the country. Fast, funny, hip and violent, Bombproof is a nonstop adventure full of unforgettable characters and a heartwarming hero - Sami Macbeth - a man with the uncanny ability to turn a desperate situation into a hopeless one.

Discovered a new narrator

Joe McLaughlin is not heavily featured, Ruiz is the central character. But the story is especially rivetting and very well written. I loved it.

Stand out in an excellent series.

I had high expectations for this book. Although I managed to finish it, it was a huge disappointment. The narration was good as was the writing, but the plot was WAY over the top. I just couldn't get past the outrageous situations; the main character could give Superman a run for his money! Also, I don't consider myself a prude, but the never-ending f-bombs became a bit much. This book is nowhere near the standard of previous novels I've read by Michael Robotham.

Over the Top...

Robotham has become one of my, and my husband’s favorite authors. This was excellent and riveting from start to finish.

Did not disappoint!

This is an enjoyable book with nice action, and crazy events that could happen, in a life can be crazy sort of way. I enjoy reading books by this author, as he has good insight into human thoughts, strengths, and weaknesses.

Like all of his other books Bombproof is another Michael Robotham winner! Well written, suspenseful, engaging and exciting! I listened to it in 2 days and really didn't want to turn it off. MR does such a good job developing characters, setting up plots and engaging the interest of the reader it's hard not to get drawn in to his books and he's quickly become one of my favorite writers. Can't wait for the next book!

Consistently Excellent!

After reading Charles' review I immediately bought this book, and I wasn't disappointed. It hooked me from the beginning and held my attention for the duration. I liked the fact the main character wasn't a macho guy no one could kill (my beef with so many action thrillers). It still had it's moments where I thought, there's no way that could happen, but very entertaining nonetheless.

I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun story to entertain them for many hours.

Sean Barrett did his job perfectly; he made the story come alive, and didn't get in the way of it.

Very good, with lots of action

Sample this prior to purchase. I love this author but I disliked the narrator so much that it ruined the story.

Poor narration

What does Sean Barrett bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Well & subtly narrated.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

You only think you know!

Any additional comments?

Once you get engaged you'll be hooked until the very last.
