A killer with no face, no identity, and a name the world wanted to forget: Jason Bourne....

Reenter the shadowy world of Jason Bourne, an expert assassin still plagued by the splintered nightmares of his former life. This time the stakes are higher than ever. For someone else has taken on the Bourne identity, a ruthless killer who must be stopped or the world will pay a devastating price.

To succeed, the real Jason Bourne must maneuver through the dangerous labyrinth of international espionage, an exotic world filled with CIA plots, turncoat agents, and ever-shifting alliances, all the while hoping to find the truth behind his haunted memories and the answers to his own fragmented past. This time there are two Bournes...and one must die.

I really enjoyed Scott Brick's narration, he made the characters believable. Even though the story is old school, I enjoyed this as much as if it were based on current events. I highly recommend this audio book.

Incredible espionage story

Scott Brick was fantastic as usual. The second book in the Bourne series is really, really long. It was like Robert Ludlum's brain shorted out and went into overdrive. It's a great story but overly complicated, and for as long as it is, the ending is rather anti-climactic.

Really long listen

I have recently finish the first of the Bourne Saga and was extremely satisfied with it. upon completing it I was convinced that I had to read the second book in the series and was very satisfied with the book as a whole, with the performance, and with the series all around. I will definitely be getting the next book to enjoy very soon.

Truly excellent 2nd story of the Bourne saga

I should have stopped at the first book. It goes into meandering details of things that are not related or even avoided. I wanted to finish it but got really impatient after half way.

Never thought I could get enough of Scott Brick until now.

Too much information

I wanted to give this book 2.5 stars. I rounded up out of respect for the author.

It is rare that I think a movie is better than the book, but it's true here. I listened to the first book, The Bourne Identity, and felt the same way. I was disappointed, but thought maybe Ludlum was just figuring out where he wanted to go with the character, so I bought the second book with the same result. I was looking for a series to fill the void until the next book in the Mitch Rapp series is released - I'll keep looking. I thought the characters were too over the top and that it was too much of a love story. It got old really fast listening to Bourne talk to himself saying things like "Oh, God, Marie. My dearest love, Marie" and saying it in a way that made him sound like a high school student who just got dumped. I don't think this was the narrator's fault.

Ok, but the movies are better

What did you love best about The Bourne Supremacy?

I loved the pace of the book. I found it great to listen to, because of all the action that took place.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favorite character in this book is Bourne's handler, and friend, because he makes up for trying to kill Bourne by helping him get to China to find his wife.

Which scene was your favorite?

The scene I loved is the one when Bourne almost succeeds in destroying the safe house in Victoria peak. I wish he could have roughed up the two officials that caused him trouble just a bit.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I really did. After I got this book from the library for the blind, I knew I just had to have my own copy.

Any additional comments?

I would recommend all the books in the series.

More action.
