About this listen

Nick Woods is tired of waiting. America's greatest sniper has spent the better part of two years up in the mountains of Montana, waiting for the government to double-cross him and try to come get him. He has good reason to be wary. The government has betrayed him twice already, but Nick's a hard man to kill. And just waiting in isolation, with his wife Anne gone and his paranoia at dangerous levels, is killing him day by day.

And so Nick ventures out. Carefully, like Nick does everything. But what Nick doesn't know is that the Mexican government stands on the verge of complete collapse. A brilliant madman has united the drug cartels into a deadly alliance, and the Mexican president holds a perilous grip on power. Now, Mexico's leading businessman - a multibillionaire who owns much of the country - is about to exit the country, selling off his businesses and taking his capital out of the country. Such a move would lead to an exodus of other businesses, and just like that America would face one of its largest catastrophes in recent times: a third world country on its borders, run by a drug cartel whose reach spans from South America into deep within the United States.

America has already sent special forces to deal with this cartel, but that proved a catastrophe. The country needs Nick Woods again, and it needs him now.

OK, but not as good as "Sold Out".

Mexican Heat is the second novel in the Nick Woods series. The first book in the series is Sold Out which is outstanding. In analyzing what I liked less about Mexican Heat there are two factors: 1. The situation is simply not credible. 2. While most action thrillers have a lot of testosterone, Mexican Heat is excessive. The third novel in the series, Afghan Storm, gets better reviews so I may give it a try. Stan R Mitchell has real potential as an action thriller writer, but he needs to try to avoid the excesses of Mexican Heat.

Jay Snyder's narration is outstanding.

I cannot recommend this book.

OMG - Mitchell goes from strength to strength here

Would you listen to Mexican Heat again? Why?

Stan R Mitchell is a top author who will thoroughly entertain you and draw you into a detailed world with Mexican Heat!

This story builds upon the last book without making it required reading. You can just as easily dive into this book without reading the first. The pacing is fast. I enjoyed listening to an action movie in my mind.

Mitchell has really found his stride in Mexican Heat. The characters, not just the lead but the ancillary ones as well, are detailed and have enough depth that you are interested in them and can actually see them as real folks.

Mitchell has a skill that I rarely see in modern action fiction. He successfully balances an effectively paced story with enough detail and background that you don't feel spoon fed but also don't feel like you missed a page somewhere.

His development of Nick in this book is superb. I'm hooked and you will be too.

As I've said in a review of book one in this series, if you enjoy Mark Greaney, especially the Gray Man series - you'll LOVE this series. Give it a try!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Nick Woods, but let's not forget our ninja either...

What about Jay Snyder’s performance did you like?

Jay never fails to embrace a story and bring it to life with effective dialog voicing and solid vocal rendering. His involvement in this series is a real coup.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not that I can reveal here without spoiling the story for others.

Any additional comments?

BUY THIS BOOK! You will not regret it.

Live and die by 1000's of little cuts

Typical good mercenaries vs bad mercenaries. A little passion, and everyone has a sad relationship story, but our hero manages to get lucky, in between all the blood letting, gore planning, and machismo.
The story moves right on along, the reader does a great job with annunciation all the way through the story. Not a great read but good for an over night story that has some interesting moments and it is delivered well

Decent story, unremarkable ending

If you could sum up Mexican Heat in three words, what would they be?

Not too bad.

What did you like best about this story?

Good story line.

What about Jay Snyder’s performance did you like?

Excellent as always; the best for this genre.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No.

Any additional comments?

A little too much detail; I don't need to know the caliber of every gun and the clothes everyone is wearing.

The ending is amazing, you won't believe it but you will love it!

Writing is fantastic, storylines and characters are real life! The series is off to a great start! Looking forward to book number #3! Jay Snyder once again crushes it.

Southern boy butt kicker! I like it.

First book better but this shifts Woods to an awkward leader. I like the personal mission better. Still a good revenge thrilling ending.

The rube accent is just annoying.

The lead character comes off a both an “aw shucks” hick and sociopath. The accent will wear on the reader and detracts from the story. The plot is entertaining fantasy, but not that far from reality in Mexico.
