Still loved it the 3rd time around

even though this is my third time reading the series I loved it just the same it was good to get caught up on some of the things that had going on. I realize that some of the events happened in a later book from what I was thinking which is pretty cool I'm going to start reading the next book in the series right now.

Good not great

I didn't enjoy the story as much as the previous 3 but still good. I'm still looking forward to the next one.

A joy to listen

Another great addition to the series, can’t wait for the next one! Dick Hill will be missed, best reader in my opinion.

Where were the 'Ops'?

The book was OK - but there were a few things I didn't like. First - no real Russian spy would magically fall in love with spy who she defected too. It was just too cheesy. Second - despite all the tension & sneaking around - there weren't any ops in the book until the end. I thought there would be more action & less cheesy love.

A great write and a great story

In W.E.B. Griffin I have found my newest spy writer. The story catches you up in the plot and the characters. You like the main characters, because they come across and real human beings doing difficult things without superpowers. You won't regret reading this novel.

Good to the last sentence!

Once again, Griffin story and characters keep you wanting to know what happens next to the point you never want to turn off the recording. Thank goodness for headsets so some work actually got done. As always, Dick Hill brings all the characters to life.

Black Ops

This is my 3rd audiobook. My first by W.E.B.
The book started out with action, very first thing. It was a little confusing putting the characters in place, at first. Then it became very interesting and was a good read. You have to follow it close at first then once the plot is in place it takes off on a great story. It is rated PG and sometimes R just due to the descriptive nature of the lead character and Russian spy girl. I did enjoy it and it wasn't out of place. Overall, good job. The narrator also make the story come alive, he also did a good job. Will read the next adventure of these spies for sure.

This download skipped!

Many times during this audio book it skipped, pretty annoying to listed to an audio file that skips, I could just buy the audio book on CD if I wanted to deal with that!!! The story is great and Dick Hill is an amazing reader!
