About this listen

The kidnapping of a young man on a country road in Oxfordshire is but the first brutal step in a ruthless plan to force the President of the United States out of office. If it succeeds, he will be psychologically and emotionally destroyed. Only one man can stop it - Quinn, the world's foremost Negotiator, who must bargain for the life of an innocent man, unaware that ransom was never the kidnapper's real objective...

The Negotiator unfolds with the spellbinding excitement, unceasing surprise and riveting detail that are the hallmarks of Frederick Forsyth, the master storyteller.

If I’d read this book myself I’d have given up half way through. The idea is interesting, but overly complicated with two dimensional characters. Fortunately, Steven Pacey could read a gas bill and make it fascinating, so the whole experience was enjoyable.

Really amazing even after so many years. Great narration as well. Frederick Forsyth is very good

Amazing

Excellent writing as always from Forsyth. Detailed descriptions of real world politics and spycraft as background to a believable fiction. I think this was written to please more of a US audience, with an American lone wolf protagonist and a more standard fiction formula than Jackal and some other earlier work. Still we'll worth the listen! Oh and all the other books I've heard have been read by David Rintoul who is a master actor. At first the recording quality and new actor put me off, but after a while he grew on me, and his range of completely different character voices is amazing!

More "novely" than some of his other books

It took me a long time to get around to reading and then listening to this book. Turns out to be Frederick Forsyth's best works. I found it gripping right from the start and the pace never flagged. Wonderful storytelling.

One of his best books.

This is a long novel that seems to drag on in parts with a lame and unnecessary romantic subplot that bogs and trivializes what starts out as a pretty interesting political story. Fred always gives lots of engrossing and authentic seeming details that made me keep listening to the end even when I began to lose patience with the goofy love interest.

A bit sub par for Frederick
