Bloodlands

John Milton, Book 23

De: Mark Dawson

Narrado por: David Thorpe

In a world where loyalty is fleeting and alliances are temporary, John Milton is on a mission that will bring him face-to-face with enemies old and new. When his friend, Alex Hicks, finds himself pursued by mysterious adversaries, the two men are thrust back into the web of international espionage.

Navigating a perilous path that stretches from the war-torn streets of Ukraine to the icy wastelands of Siberia, Milton will stop at nothing to protect his friends and expose a conspiracy that could topple governments and jeopardize global security. As Russian intelligence crumbles from within and a new, unpredictable threat arises, can Milton outwit his most formidable enemies yet?

From the clandestine corridors of French intelligence to the explosive frontlines of a covert war, Bloodlands will keep you on the edge of your seat, questioning where true loyalty lies. In a daring game of cat and mouse that sees Milton, Hicks, and an ensemble of unforgettable characters crossing paths and double-crossing enemies, the stakes have never been higher.

Don't miss this lightning-paced installment in the John Milton series—a tale of betrayal, survival, and the relentless pursuit of justice.

That right there's a baaaad man

the story the pacing was perfect, I twisted twist and the end. so much suspension of whsts going to happen next.

John Milton for the win again

Now that I have listened to every John Milton book and don’t have another to listen to I am at a loss! John Milton helped me through my health issues while I was out of work and has become like family to me. I hope that Mark is working on the next book, in the mean time I will find another series by Dawson and hopefully David will the the narrator

Love Milton

Enjoyed the return of characters I liked from previous books. Wish the ending were a bit different, but understand the likely reason behind it. Looking forward to the next Milton book.

Thumbs Up

It had all the elements I’ve come to enjoy with this series. All loose ends tidied up with a twist and tease for future books. Too bad the next in the series has had not so good reviews. I’ll skip and hope for better. Thorpe is an excellent narrator. He brings that extra star to reviews. I think the only downer with this series is that not all the books were available to listen to in their order when I first started, but I see more are now. I’m too far into the reformed Milton, and won’t go back.

Nice segue to the next…?

Milton goes on. Old friends-Hicks and Penn-are out there for whatever is next from the mind of Dawson. I’m watchfully waiting!

23 Books and going strong....

4.5 Stars 🌟

After 23 books, I am running out of things to say about this series other than to say that it constantly amazes me that Mr. Dawson somehow manages to make each new book fresh, exciting and plausible.

This book is the continuation and culmination of the story arc started in the last couple of books that finishes with a huge climax in this book. Control has been kidnapped, an agent has turned traitor and of course, EVERYONE is blaming John Milton for ALL of it. Sound familiar?

Yep, thought so. But, even though this seems to happen quite often, it somehow just continues to work.

This time we have Zippy, John and Hicks on the run after the sleezeball turncoat continues to devolve lower and lower and find ways to "justify" her behavior.

I loved every minute of this and as always, it is over in the blink of an eye. I listened to this on audio (as I usually do) and just love the narration by David Thorpe. What can I say? I'm a sucker for that British accent :)

So, this one wraps up that entire story arc and I am curious to see where we are going to go from here. I hope book 23 is not the last book, but if so- there is still several other series he has in play......Atticus, and the other new series he just started....can't think of his name, and I think there is one more after that.

Milton for the Win!

1. Great Story. You get sucked right in. Action from the beginning and Twists through out the whole story.
2. David Thorpe is the master of accents. Love to have him read to me.
3. I have read them all. Listened to them all. I have the hard copies as well. Milton makes a certain Reacher look bad.
Overall the characters are well developed, the story has a solid base to build upon, and you all you want to do is listen to more of David Thorpe as the voice of Milton.

Good, but...

It fell a little short for me compared to some of the other John Milton books. Seemed like it was full of character development in lieu of good, solid action, which is what I want in a John Milton story. The narration was perfect as usual. I'm still looking forward to the next installment.

awful book

absolutely awful. I've listened to every "john milton." betrayed, chased, chased some more. it's a boring storyline
