Kill Shot: An American Assassin Thriller

Haven't missed one Flynn and certainly wouldn't miss any read by the great George Guidall.

Perhaps I was inattentative, but knowing Mitch Rapp and all the other characters, I was unaware this book was retrospective, which made following Rapp's trust issues confusing. But I liked the plot and thought it made for some great 'bad guys'.

I enjoy any character in the Rapp series, but particularly like George reading as the gruff Stan.

This is another Flynn book worth a listen.

I thought with this book being another "younger days" prequel so to speak it might not be all that good but I was wrong. It is a continuation of American Assassin and so "all" the characters from the first ten books are of course younger which gives room for more overall personality expansion.
It has to be difficult to write these kinds of books since technology expanded so quickly in the last twenty years it is hard to remember what was available when even though there are no dates given.
If I were reading this series for the first time I would start with the last two books and there will probably be at least a third considering the way this one ended.
Of course this is all pure fantasy like comic book hero's, in the real world I doubt we have such a man nor would I actually want one. Lyn

Seems like a long wait since American Assassin, but worth it. This installment continues to give us the background story of Mitch Rapp's early days with Stansfield, Kennedy, Hurly, and in this novel much more on the character of Victor who first appeared in American Assassin. The story works as a stand alone, but when taken within the context of the entire Mitch Rapp series, provides more detail on the characters we have grown accustomed to. Mr. Flynn maintains his great story telling and is complimented by the competent narration of George Guidall. Recommended both for new readers and devoted followers of Vince Flynn's work.

I wouldn't rate this as a great book or a page turner. The story is more around Mitch (of course) but you could see Irene, Thomas stansfield and Stan Hurley being involved as well. The plot it not that great and you don't have any event that races against time. If you have already read many Mitch Rapp series, then this book may well seem to be reduntant to you in terms of explanation of attributes of Mitch, usage of his techniques, rules around CIA etc.

George Guidall gives a stellar performance (as usual).

READ IT IF YOU ARE A MITCH RAPP FAN or VINCE FLYNN FAN only.

Yes, I usually wait a year or two to re-listen to a book, but it is rare that I listen to the same story twice. This one goes on the list though.

Vince Flynn is my favorite author. I was sad to see the medical news, and was a little worried about the quality of this book. It was great! This one has vaulted to the 2nd or 3rd on my best of this series (Consent to Kill will be hard to ever knock off #1).

The plot is fairly predictable, but the execution of the narrative is the reason you read/listen to a Vince Flynn book. George Guidall is excellent as the narrator and makes listening to the story a fun experience. People who like Flynn will love this and people who haven't tried Flynn might be a little confused by the characters. The cast is pretty much the same as other "Assassin" books and Flynn doesn't bore his regular readers by reconstructing his characters, but newbies might not understand or appreciate some of the conflict between characters. So it is a good book but not one that new Flynn readers should start with.

Seemed a little shallower than some of his past work. Ended too quickly and unbelievably. Very good narration, and I still enjoy this series.

Yes. I like the character, the narration, and the series.

This is another outstanding work in the series. the setting was Paris which was good and the characters were extremely compelling and deep. Overall I'm satisfied with the book and not at all disapointed.

I have read all of Mitch Wrapp Series. This by far is the best one yet.

Liked the story, the locale in which it was told and the intrique within the CIA.
Enjoyed the sequence of events leading to the solution of the problem
Believable characters in a believable scenario!

Good ending.
