About this listen

You can give up killing, but death never leaves you....

After a lifetime of hunting down criminals, Ryan just wants to live out his days in peace and in the shadows of Tokyo to grieve the loss of his wife and son. But his old team - the Nameless, experts in extraction and recon - comes with an urgent request for help. The young daughter of one of his closest friends, a girl he once treated as his own, has been kidnapped.

The search leads Ryan and his team into the Japanese mountains and a town steeped in secrets that a new sinister adversary wishes to keep hidden. He begins to unravel a deep, macabre plot that goes far beyond this missing girl. With enemies from the past remerging, they begin targeting members of the Nameless. Ryan quickly realizes that no matter how hard he tries to leave this world behind, it will never let him go until he defeats his demons. Those demons are not just after him, and if they aren’t stopped, it could put all of humanity at risk.

ok

the narration was decent enough. the story was good if you're into apocalyptic stuff. I needed an ending not a cliffhanger. I don't want to be forced to listen to the next book especially, if it wasn't awesome.

not for me

shooting. No plot. can't get into this book at all. Not for me. Very boring
Update . I listened again. This is written differently than what i am used to, I guess. It was hard to follow.
Enhancing and destroying the human body. Either you turn to ashes instantly or you heal yourself within seconds.
i will never understand the desire to destroy God's creations.

????

In a word: This book is all over the place. By the last 3 hours, I was ready/eager for a bomb to wipe out all the characters. A rating of three is generous.

Too many people!

As he pressed the reset button, the leading German antagonist said succinctly, “There were just too many people”. Dé·jà Vu, the Final Solution. The implied references to the Third Reich seeking to raise the Fourth Reich are obvious. It’s sort of cliché but the story is intriguing and the author holds back the methods of the instrument of destruction. The main characters are well-developed and interesting. Some twists and turns occur throughout this first volume, expanding the story and adding new characters. The plot arc is good. It’s a fairly complex story, adding points of present-day situations for authenticity. The way this volume is coming towards its conclusion it’s difficult to see how this series will continue. Pretty good twists and intrigue. The narrator, Mr. Corkhill was impressive as well.

Good story with excellent narration

Thrilling story with people doing things all over the world trying to figure out what is threatening civilization as we know it. The narrator does an excellent job with inflection and accents so you know without a doubt which character is speaking. Great book if you like spy thrillers, sci-fi, dystopian worlds etc.
