Slow start with a good ending

Narrator pronounces some words incorrectly which was a bit offputting at first… still the story is good.

Narrator lacks

Narrator pronunciation of “balaclava” grated on my ears. Detracted from story. Otherwise okay. Get a different reader.

baaalak ca lava

the narrator mangled that word so badly I had to come here and comment on it lol balak calava

Powerful story. Strong characters

This is the start of another great series. Highly recommend. Can't wait to start next book

Constant logical action

Action is constant and a fun read, hard to put this book down! You will enjoy it as well.

Good storyline

The story is good, but I can't get past the mispronunciations of the narrator. Simple English words that are mispronounced, when NARRATING is your only job, takes away from the experience for the listener. There are so many people involved in the process of creating an audiobook- the author, the narrator, the producers, the editors.....why isn't it caught???

Pronunciation

This might have been a good book. I generally like the author but I couldn't get past the narrator. Hode instead of hold and exspecially instead of especially and so on. I'll have to buy the paperback.

No character development, cartoonish story.

Part soap opera with cartoonish combat scenes. No character development so hard to get involved. Kept getting bored, even in action scenes.

Realism

Liked everything about the book as well as the author and his writing and all of his works.

Weak narration

Weak narration which makes it hard to follow, the writing doesn’t strike me as amazing either….listened to all of the Agent Zero books but this is disappointing
