Hard to Break

A Michael Gannon Thriller, Book 3

De: Michael Ledwidge

Narrado por: Neil Hellegers

THE NEXT INSTALLMENT IN THE PULSE-POUNDING GANNON SERIES FROM THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING COAUTHOR OF JAMES PATTERSON’S MICHAEL BENNETT SERIES

Mike Gannon always wanted to go to Alaska. That’s why when a bucket-list grizzly bear trip to the Klondike comes up, he’s on it with both feet. But as he arrives up in the northern wilds, he discovers other hunters are there. And they’re not looking for grizzly.

Soon Mike finds himself alone and captured on a corporate plane heading southbound for an incredibly lethal encounter that is about to blow his mind before it tries to blow him away.

Mike’s enemies are in the driver’s seat until they realize they overlooked one simple thing.

Some men are easy to handle, but there are other men who are…hard to break.

good story terrible narration

Great story but the narrator made every sentence sound like a question.. and I started questioning why I was listening

Tough guy

True to his roots taking on cartels and the CIA in Peru and elsewhere. The ending let you use your imagination somewhat and a few loose ends, but overall a great book.

enjoyed the book

the book was good, the narrator was awful. He made it difficult to get through the entire book.

Thoroughly enjoyable!

Plenty of excitement, unexpected twists and turns. Couldn't stop listening until it was done! Loved it! Recommended. 5 stars all around!

Story could have been great but

Narrator made it painful to listen almost bailed multiple times but I like the author. Won’t spend money on another story with this narrator. Thought it was AI it was so stilted and flat.

I do love an elaborate assassination scheme

The series gets more and more pulpy, like 80’s Bond movies instead of the new Daniel Craig ones.
And what would a Bond movie be without some slyly macho jokes, an unhinged villain, and elaborate death traps? Grab the popcorn and don’t think too hard on the unlikely coincidences.

Unfortunately, any supporting characters from the prior two books are soon abandoned in favor of a Gannon-a-mano, one man legend taking on Peruvian drugs lords and, of course, Them.
I enjoyed the one or two allies he finds along the way and really enjoyed the main villain.

My favorite parts, however, are the comedic bits, from Gannon’s inner monologue to the increasingly hyperbolic legendary status given to him by his foes and allies alike. Listened to much of this while driving, so I’ll end with the only quote I remember about the man, the myth, the Lion:
“The dude had king sized balls, the size desperate housewives did Pilates on.”

Love all of Michael Ledwidge’s thrillers

Well-written tight plots with great characters and exhilarating twists and turns. Also, unlike many current thrillers like Patterson, Connelly, and Brad Thor, Ledwidge happily does not spew the names “Christ” and “Jesus” out of his characters’ mouths as curses.

Exciting Thriller

I have really enjoyed books by this author and this one didn’t disappoint! Well done!

Fun read

This was a great laugh book of the Ganon trilogy. My favorite of these was the first one, but I thought the author ended this really nicely, of course, with our hero of the day winning again!

Nothing new or exciting

the plot is good (though I expected a series thread by now) and the charachters are fine.
I am finished with this author ( get a damn researcher the extent of details that are wrong is ridiculous) and narrator (this has been like a dramatic reading of a children's bedtime book). oh, and, apparently, you can tell a "bad guy" by how many people he/she calls "redneck" "hick" "hillbilly" etc
