Resumen del Editor
From Timothy Zahn, Hugo Award winner and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Heir to the Empire, comes this pulse-pounding political thriller.
A tactical nuclear weapon is stolen from an Indian research facility, setting off a chain of events that spans the globe.
Those behind the heist plan to use it to take out thousands of innocent people—all to assure death of a single man who they believe is too dangerous to be left alive.
What are the lives of thousands compared to the safety of the world?
At the same time, scientists have invented the world’s first cloaking device, able to render its user almost completely invisible. It’s the epitome of hidden-in-plain-sight—a game changer for any military. At least until three of the lead scientists are murdered and their work is stolen the night before their first demonstration.
Authorities have no idea the two crimes are connected.
There are ten days before the bomb is set to go off.
Can they unravel the trail of red herrings in time?
The clock is ticking...
The legendary Timothy Zahn, best-known for creating the popular Thrawn character last seen in Star Wars: Ahsoka, returns with this original, binge-worthy thriller. CLOAKED DECEPTION is filled with twists and turns and a blistering conclusion you'll never see coming!

Historia
Matt Miller wasn't special. He was just a regular guy with a regular life—a one bedroom apartment, a couple of pairs of slacks, and a dead-end job. But when his estranged grandfather died, he left Matt with an unexpected inheritance: a magic ring and a farm located on another world. Now, Matt's stuck with a rundown farmhouse, fields choked with weeds, and no way to get back home. He only has one option, to roll up his sleeves and complete the quest prompt he's been given: Restore the Farm. Luckily, he has a (mostly) merry band of sprites to help him along the way.

Jasmine wasn’t ready for it. Less than a year into her training at Sanctuary, a college for Keepers and mages alike, and with a fresh start from a brutal life of thievery in the slums, all she wanted to do was continue mastering the sword arts and avoid her other responsibilities. Those plans are ruined when she's assigned to be the protector of a young nobleman whose family was murdered. Her new charge is cocky, smug, and drives her up a wall at every opportunity.

On the battlefields of the future, death is not the end for a soldier. The Revenant Program collects badly wounded soldiers broken by war and converts them into unthinking, unfeeling cyborg weapons. Their bodies are immune to pain, their minds impervious to fear and doubt. All controlled by a neural implant called the Imperative. They are the ideal force for any mission too deadly or too difficult for normal men. A force that answers to the darkest corners of the military.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge.

Historia
In The Worst of You, just-wed architects Timo and Nia flee a murder scene, setting in motion a chain reaction of lies and betrayals that threaten to unravel everything they have built together. Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.

Historia
It was 1970 in a defeated Rhode Island fishing town. Vietnam and Nixon dominated the national news. Both the near and distant future looked bleak. But they were five inseparable high school friends with something incredible in common: an unwavering resolve to look after each other no matter what hell life threw at them. And they were on a mission. The plan was simple: Go off the grid before they turned 18 to avoid the draft. They’d sell some grass, stack some cash, then head west and start a commune. What could possibly go wrong?

Buckhead isn’t a place you live, it’s a place you survive. And that applies even to the wealthy housewives that have it all. Fancy cars, designer clothes, and daily salon appointments aren’t nearly enough to keep them fulfilled and happy. Because in this town, privilege and opulence go hand in hand with betrayal and revenge. Jenny, the owner of Glow, an exclusive membership-only beauty salon, knows that better than anyone, because she knows everything about these housewives—down to each individual strand of hair.

Historia
Jack Morgan has been framed for theft. He's hiding on a distant planet with the virtual presence of his deceased Uncle Virge, a con man who has been his only family since Jack's parents died. Jack knows he must clear his name before the cops catch up with him. A firefight among ships in the skies above leaves a downed ship near Jack's hiding place, with a single unlikely survivor. It looks like a dragon, and it must join with a human host within six hours or die. The only available host is Jack. Draycos, Jack's new companion, is a K'da, a dragon-like species that lives symbiotically with the humanoid Shontine. The attackers, determined to exterminate Draycos's people, will find them if they don't flee; so the pair works together to escape the planet and begin a search for the truth behind Jack's frame-up and the identity of the attackers. With Jack's future hanging in the balance, as well as the future of billions of Draycos's people, the pair must track down the people who framed Jack, and prevent the destruction of the remaining K'da and Shontine. They'll also discover whether their union was mere coincidence, or a friendship written in the stars. Zahn keeps the story moving at breakneck speed.

Historia
In this classic work of psychological terror, Paul Bowles examines the ways in which Americans apprehend an alien culture—and the ways in which their incomprehension destroys them. The story of three American travelers adrift in the cities and deserts of North Africa after World War II, The Sheltering Sky is at once merciless and heartbreaking in its compassion. It etches the limits of human reason and intelligence—perhaps even the limits of human life—when they touch the unfathomable emptiness and impassive cruelty of the desert.

Zahn excels at yet another genre!
Timothy Zahn has been my favorite author for years, from Thrawn to Conqueror’s to Quadrail, and this latest political thriller has not a disappointment. It was a fun listen which kept me guessing at every turn and I was at the end much too quickly. I hope there is a sequel planned!

This book is epic! When a paramilitary decides to take on the US...
A political thriller of epic purportion. Not my go to genre. But I'm game when Timothy Zahn is the writer and Peter Berkrot is narrating the same said book! Timothy Zahn actually cut his eye teeth writing Star Wars novels and don't forget that he wrote the YA series, Dragonback which was soooooooo good.
With a paramilitary group sneaking an atomic bomb through the US the borders. Always seemingly out maneuvering the investigators every step of the way.
This is one of the most intense books I've read this year, and I mean edge-of-your-seat kinda intensity. But if that wasn't enough there was Ross, for the longest time I couldn't figure out who Ross was and where he stood in this story, he really creaped me out for awhile... So yeah you'll wanna grab this audiobook because Peter Berkrot is well suited to telling us this kinda story. So can Timothy Zahn write thrillers or what, go ahead you decide... Read it. Then write and post your own review!
Here's a quote that amused me:
"Damn it, Madison, you're gonna get us in
deep fertilizer we'll grow mushrooms."

Perfect storm of not good enough
My initial reaction to this story centered on the performance. Initially, I blamed the performer, but I soon realized it was more about the character list, which demanded either a more versatile voice actor or multiple actors. It became increasingly difficult to keep track of and distinguish between the characters. All four main male characters sounded like variations of the same voice.
Creating distinct voices for over 20 characters is undeniably challenging. This issue partly falls on the author for having such a large cast and the production team for not addressing it effectively, either by hiring a more suitable narrator or using multiple voices. The accent for the antagonists was also problematic. They spent most of the story sounding Russian or German, only to be revealed as a paramilitary group from a country with a distinct accent. This choice seemed like an attempt to avoid spoiling the twist, but it ultimately made immersion difficult.
The story itself was typical Zahn, with some glaring issues. I found myself confused about the target. Was it President Whitcomb or the Doctor mentioned briefly in the climax? If it was the Doctor, their significance and threat level were not clearly explained.
Another issue, surprisingly given Zahn's experience, was the similarity in character names. Writers are generally advised to ensure character names are distinct to avoid confusion, but many scenes had characters with similar names, compounded by the voice actor's limited range. It took me until the second half of the novel to sort out the four main characters enough to know who to ignore and who to focus on.
Lastly, the climax felt contrived, as if the story was suddenly confined to a smaller stage. We’re taken through various intriguing settings—from a murder mystery in one part of the world to a nuke theft in another—only for everything to culminate in a single location where protagonists and antagonists converge to resolve the plot. It felt like the story narrowed down abruptly, spotlighting the main characters for a showy ending that didn’t quite feel natural.

Long book
This author must be paid by the word. Way, way, too long. It was too long.
