A Kent Steele Thriller

De: Jack Mars

Narrado por: Edoardo Ballerini

In this much-anticipated new spy thriller series by Jack Mars, listeners are taken on an action thriller across Europe as presumed-CIA operative Kent Steele, hunted by terrorists, by the CIA, and by his own identity, must solve the mystery of who is after him, of the terrorists’ pending target - and of the beautiful woman he keeps seeing in his mind.

Kent Steele, 38, a brilliant professor of European History at Columbia University, lives a quiet life in a New York suburb with his two teenage daughters. All that changes when late one night he gets a knock on his door and is abducted by three terrorists - and finds himself flown across the ocean to be interrogated in a basement in Paris.

They are convinced that Kent is the most lethal spy the CIA has ever known.

He is convinced they have the wrong man.

Do they?

With a conspiracy around him, adversaries as smart as he is, and an assassin on his tail, the wild game of cat and mouse leads Kent on a perilous road - one that may lead back to Langley - and to a shocking discovery of his own identity.

Agent Zero is an espionage thriller that will keep you listening late into the night.

Great Book! So intriguing! You can’t stop listening!!

The story by Jack Mars in this first installment of the Kent Steele books is funny, thrilling, and brilliant. It keeps you on the edge of your seat and you can’t stop listening.

The performance by Edoardo Ballerini is stunning. This book comes alive with his enthusiasm. The way he brings different accents and personality to the characters keeps you interested and involved. A great performance for a great book!

Very Engaging

Great, exciting story without the excessive vulgarity of other military/CIA type series. Will read the next in series.

Great modern espionage thriller

I’m a fan of spy & espionage thrillers but find it difficult to locate well written material beyond the Cold War era. This was great and unexpected find. Looking forward to finishing the entire series.

Trite and predictable

Started pretty well - but went south with the typical Rambo type character enduring incredible injuries but winning in the end

Fun

Was it groundbreaking? No. Fairly predictable, and a little too far fetched. But damn it was fun.

Good but flashback format is not a preferred way

Good, fast paced tale but written in a fallback way. I prefer a stat to finish. this did set the background for future books

Parts of the audio seemed liked they were sped up

The story was pretty good, but many parts of the narrative felt like they were being played back at a faster speed than what they were read, or the Narrator was reading them way too fast. That really made the experience disjointed, annoying, and much less enjoyable.

The story was pretty good, but very predictable.

Doubt I will listen to the next book in the series because of the narration speed issue.

We’ll see

I’ve already bought the second book and plan to start listening now. The first book was OK but not great. Main issue for me was when Kent started acting like a child. It just did not seem to go with what I was expecting.

"Page-turner" til the end.

Great characters and storyline. Kept me guessing until the end. The narration was very helpful in keeping me engaged.

well written and performed

This author has a great use of language to paint a picture and fill in the emotions. The narrator brings the book to life with all the needed skill of a great performer. This story has twists and turns as it carries you along in the lives of the people. Although this book is well written and performed, it is too violent for my taste.
