About this listen

From the bestselling author of DEFCON One comes an explosive techno-thriller.

While Congress debates the merits of continued funding for the stealth bomber, sinister forces have their own goals in mind. During a training exercise, a B-2 bomber disappears. When search efforts produce no evidence that the bomber crashed, the US Air Force has no choice but to acknowledge that one of its most secret and high-tech aircraft has been hijacked.

Recovery of the B-2 and its crew becomes the president's highest priority, and the Kremlin claims no knowledge of the missing aircraft. Finally, intelligence leads to what at first seems a very unlikely suspect: Cuba. But could the tiny nation pull off a theft of this magnitude? And what might its plans be for the highly sought-after aircraft? Getting the answers to these questions becomes the top-secret mission for CIA agent Steve Wickham, for without those answers, only one solution will remain: invasion. And if the US invades, World War III will certainly follow.

The premise of this book makes it an F

if the cowardly pilots would have just ditched the plane in the second chapter the whole story would have been wrapped up and done. Unfortunately that wasn't the case.

Good story, horrible narration

This is quite possibly the worst narration I’ve ever listened to. The over-exaggeration of accents to differentiate between characters was ridiculous. Half of the characters sounded like drunk ręt@rds, and one sounded like a drunken ręt@rd hick.

Laughable narration

The narrator is almost painfully slow, which is nothing compared to his laughable accents. These combined to be rather distracting.

Old Scol

F15's, Fidel and Raul Castro, some old middle school stuff. Story was a bit different but solid. Seemed like the real stories. Mathews and the "fixer" stories were not developed thoroughly enough. Both had alot of underdeveloped possibilities but still very interesting. All the realistic grunting, groaning and stress during the hi G aerial maneuvering was surprising and different.

The Narrator must be from Boston...

Great story; horrible Narrator! Turn the speed up to 1.2 so he actually sounds literate!

Good story, fair narration

Well I enjoyed the story I was a little disappointed with the nearest. Overall the narration was OK the characters Austin sounded like Eeyore Winnie the Pooh. I realize that much of the book dealt with stressful situations, but I do not believe the professionalsInvolved in combat slight panic every time something happens. The narrator made it appear that the stressful situations were panic situation for the characters.

Good Book, Wrong Narrator

the story and the book are great. they keep you pretty engaged although it is a little tough with the narrator. he only has about five or six different voices to do and with this book having so many different big personalities they all start to sound the same after a while. kind of hard to keep up with who's who.

Great book @1.10x speed

important! Adjust playback speed to 1.10x this fixes the narrative issues

Excellent book. There is a tempo issue with the file, making the narration unbearable... the fix is simple, by increasing playback to 1.10x

I enjoyed the Book

While the story was a bit far fetched, I still enjoyed the listen. This probably deserved a 3.5 star rating so I rounded it up to 4 stars. The narrator talked a bit slow for an audio book so I listened at 1.5 speed.
