About this listen

Newly appointed CIA director Dr. Irene Kennedy is the target of an inside plot to destroy her and prematurely end the American President's term. To make matters worse, Saddam Hussein is close to entering the nuclear arms race - something Israel has vowed to stop. With the haunting specter of World War III looming, the president calls on his secret weapon: top counter-terrorism operative Mitch Rapp. But with only two weeks to take out the nukes, Rapp is up against a ticking clock - and impossible odds.

Take another thrill ride with Mitch Rapp.©2002 Vince Flynn (P)2011 Simon & Schuster

Worst narration ever

After some 120 audio books this has to be the worst narration. Complete inability to add value to the listener rather than reading the book - the emotion or suspense of any scene was lost in his two tone style. Also his atypical pronunciation of certain words left me focussing on the absurdity of the narration rather than the story. It was sooooo bad I almost gave up - only the fact that it was another great Mitch Rapp kept me going to the end.

Great story, Terrible Narrator

I usually take reviews with a pinch of salt as everyone has a different opinion. But I am in concurrence with every review, the worst story telling ever. Did they use a voice over? Missed pronunciations, high pitched voice. Terrible.

Worst one so far.

I have never fast forwarded an audible book so much. Drags on with continued conversation when questioning (for answers) and it's never ending.

Rapp does it again!

Loved the continuing adventures of Rapp but am majorly put off by his so called girlfriend. I found her extremely grating and just a tad bullying disguised as determination.
The storyline was exciting and had lots of on the edge moments.
Will definitely be reading the next one in hopes the girlfriend is no longer an item

Good book, poor performance.

Enjoyed the book, but found that the story was butchered by the narrators whiney 1950s style.

Interesting story, but read by C3P0

An interesting storyline, with good intrigue. Good balance of storyline to keep both sides of the story moving along. Some of the dialogue is unrealistic but ok. The narrator is terrible and spoils the dialogue. Was hard to get through to the end because the reading was so robotic.

Good story, awful narrator

Alas! This perfectly good Mitch Rapp story is seriously marred by the terrible narration. Mitch - and all the other characters - sound both angry and whining pretty much all the time. If this book hadn’t been the sequel to book 4, I would have skipped it.

Not his best

The narrator leaves a lot to be desired. His pronunciation of many words is terrible. Not just the American versions of words but his English and intonation are poor.
The storyline is good but the author bores the reader with his over long and amateurish interactions between Mitch and Anna.
Apart from that it is a good read.

Great story, not so great narration.

As always, we enjoyed this installment in the Mitch Rapp series. Unfortunately, we didn't enjoy the narration and we will make sure to order the next book, with a different narrator.

Great story!

An absolutely awesome story! The narration is terrible, but worth persevering if you into the Rapp franchise.
