About this listen

Charlie Castillo's secret unit has been disbanded - but that doesn't mean he's out of business. As experience has painfully shown him, there are many things the intelligence community can't do, won't do, or doesn't do well, and he has the men and assets to help set things straight.

But the first opportunity, when it comes, is shocking: A FedEx package arrives, bearing photos of barrels containing some of the most dangerous biohazard materials on earth, all of which were supposed to have been destroyed during a raid on a secret Russian factory in the Congo. Who has them, and what do they want? Castillo has a feeling he's not going to like the answers.

Another in a line of great stories.

I wait for the next in the line to carry my favorite stories and characters forward and "Outlaws" did this for me and then some. The ending was a great surprise and left open, ofcourse, for yet another great story. The new narrator left me wanting only because I became so used to the previous. It was as if I turned on a my favorite TV program and the entire cast had been changed to new actors. If this was my first sampling of this series there would be no issue.

great story, but.....

I have been a huge fan of the presidential series from W.E.B. Griffin. This chapter has a great story but the narration is disappointing, particularly when used to the previous 5 installments. .

Solid story

The story is good although the changes to some characters is disappointing.

The narration is not nearly as good as Dick Hill but is passable.

Audio

Narrator is quite boring compared to narrator of previous books. Tone, especially in “conversations” between President & Montvale are excruciatingly monotone. Books are great - going through each individually, hence the stars.

Should have waited for Dick Hill

Dick Hill is a better narrator and presents the story much better food for thought on your next book 9 if you can

Good book odd performance

This is a perfect example to show how important the narrator can be. In the previous book (SPOILER ALERT) one of the defectors spoke perfect English, in this book the defector has a heavy Russian accent. What happened? This is still a good book, I just wish they hadn’t used a different narrator.

Good Story

I liked the writing and the story paid off in the end, Could have spent less time recapping the other books and I didn’t really care for the narrator, but it is hard to compare to Dick Hill.

Narrator is not up to previous standards.

Narration is flat, dull, unenthusiastic, monotonic and like listening to a bedtime story. His lack of intonation made the story difficult to follow.

Loved It But Wrong Narrator

I've read the entire now 6 in this series of The Presidential Agent. I've loved every minute of every one. The stories could not be better. This is the only one not read by Dick Hill for which I was very disappointed. He has brought all of the main characters to this book alive in past years. He is a master of dialects and voices. It took me a couple of hours to get used to the new narrator but still an excellent book in this seriies. I now have to wait another year for the next one. This series is one of my favorites. I'm not going to pretend to be a book critic. I just love the characters and each of the plots but will say that they are much better read in the order written. Go to Griffins website to get that information. I have even read the previous ones twice this last year in preparation for the new one. They are worth a do-over. I've read all of Griffins books now but the Presidential Agent series is my favorite.
