Armored

De: Mark Greaney

Narrado por: Adam Gold

A novel inspired by #1 New York Times best-selling author Mark Greaney’s Audible Original drama, Armored.

Joshua Duffy is a Close Protection Agent—a professional bodyguard—and he's one of the world's elite operatives. That is, he was until his last mission in Lebanon. Against all odds, Josh got his primary out alive, but the cost was high. Josh lost his lower left leg.

There's not much call for an elite bodyguard with such an injury. So, Josh has to support his family working as a mall cop in New Jersey. For a man like Josh, this is purgatory on earth, but miracles can occur even in Paramus.

A lucky run-in with an old comrade promises to get Josh back in the field for one last job. The UN is sending a peace mission into the Sierra Madre mountains in Mexico, an area so dangerous it's known as Espinazo del Diablo—the Devil's Spine. Only a fool would think they could broker peace between the homicidal drug cartels in the region, and only a madman would sign on to keep those fools alive.

"Great fun for the reader....there’s never a dull page."—Kirkus Reviews

"[An] enjoyable thriller from bestseller Mark Greaney....Explosive action sequences follow as Duffy and company seek to retreat to flat land and safety, and Duffy proves to be more than just a hardened military tactician. Readers will hope he’ll be back for an encore."—Publishers Weekly

"All hell breaks loose and continues at a murderous pace...Mark Greaney is a master at this type of action thriller."—Deadly Pleasures Mystery Magazine

Narrator almost ruined this awesome story

The story was great the characters were great but it was hard to get through because how awful the narrator was. Every single word was spoken with so much dramatic inflection it was terrible.

Excellent story

I really liked this book. I hope this series continues. I’m interested in how Mark develops the surviving team and Josh and Nicki. Look forward to the next book.

Great Read

I was not sure about reading a book about a one legged hero, but I did. I was not disappointed in the story, the character, or the narrator. Great story, had me hanging on all the way. I've just downloaded book 2 and can't wait to start. Thanks Mark Greaney, once again. I love you work.

Very Good

The story started out slow, I found it hard to come back to. One-third of the way in, I couldn’t stop listening. Narrator was slightly over dramatic, but it was not noticeable after a while.

Thriller

Mark Greany is a master at not being predictable in all his stories, I never seen or thought about how this story twists and turns through out the book. I lost sleep at night listening to this book and it was worth it.
