About this listen

The number one New York Times best-selling author of The Ghost War and The Faithful Spy returns with a novel of international intrigue and catastrophic terrorism that "keeps the reader caring, and guessing, until the end." (Booklist)

For CIA operative John Wells, the underworld has become more real than the real world. He's spent years in the close company of evil men. And he's paid the price in every possible way. Now, he's on the ragged edge of burnout. His nights are plagued by twisted dreams. He's beginning to doubt if he can ever live a normal life.

He is right to think so.

For revenge....

Breath taking

What did you like best about The Silent Man? What did you like least?

The best George Guidall the writing/story. Soooooo Sloooow had to force concentration. Not an entertaining writer like Vince Flynn.

Would you ever listen to anything by Alex Berenson again?

Probably not

Have you listened to any of George Guidall’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I'd listen to George read city ordinances. In fact thats what I feel like I just did.

Could you see The Silent Man being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

definitely not

Definitely NOT Mitch Rapp

F*** the end

I’m late to the Berenson novels, but I’m hooked. And George Guidall delivers another masterful performance.

Terrific Listen

The Silent Man has plenty of action and interesting characters. The main character has appeared in two of the author's previous books, both of which are excellent. The story follows the plot line from the previous book, but this book stands alone quite well. The previous story is explained, without being tedious, in the context of the present, and there will be no problem for the reader who is unfamiliar with this character. Guidall is my favorite narrator for this genre, and he does a fine job with this book. 5 stars!

another hit for berenson

overall a good spy story with John Wells demonstrating some of his exceptional skills however he is not quite as exceptional in this story as in the previous two

Good spy story...a more subdued John Wells

I'm now on the 5th book in Berenson's John Wells series and am enjoying it very much, especially since its now being narrated by the Great George Guidall, one of my favorite storytellers.

Berenson has built Wells backstory nicely in the first 4 novels-I like the way he slowly eases Wells early life into the current time, one little bit at a time.

Each story could stand alone with ease. That they are in a series can occasionally make the series become a bit tedious with the same language and verbiage, however Berenson is an effective enough writer so as to not fall into this trap. And, while there are several people who are in all the books I've read so far, still they haven't become predictable nor have I gotten tired of them-which has occurred in other series books I've read.

I really recommend Alex Berenson's novels-especially those narrated by Guidall. If you enjoy current era spy stories these can't be beat.

Enjoying Alex Berenson!

This is generic super agent fare written competently but with little imagination. You do not have to have read any of the previous stories in the series to recognize and understand the recurring characters; you have met them in a score of other books in the same genre. The situation and development of the plot are also familiar.

There is nothing unpleasant about spending a few hours with this book, but it is never going to shock, touch, or fascinate you, nor will it likely keep you in the car for an extra five minutes because you just can't bear to turn it off. It has been a while since I read a really gripping thriller and I was looking for one. This was not it.

generic ho hum

The Silent Man was enjoyable by itself, though compared to the first two John Wells novels, it falls a tad short.

Worth a listen
