No greater friend. No deadlier enemy.

The explosive new novel in the New York Times bestselling Orphan X series is flipping the acclaimed series on its head. Find out why series superfans and new listeners alike are calling it a “knockout” (firstCLUE).

Evan Smoak is a highly trained former government assassin who has survived for years by keeping his circle to a few trusted confidants and a strict code he calls “The Ten Commandments.” But when Evan suddenly finds himself at odds with his oldest friend, all the rules he lives by shatter—and the consequences are murderous.

Tommy Stojack might be Evan's best friend in the world. He’s a gifted gunsmith who has created much of Evan's own weapons and combat gear. But now, he has apparently crossed one of Evan's hardest lines and their argument explodes into open warfare. Now Evan has no choice but to track and face down his only friend.

In the meantime, Tommy has left town in order to honor his own promise to help a dead friend's son. While Tommy is fighting to save the son with everything he’s got, Evan arrives with vengeance in mind.

But as deadly as the former Orphan X is, there is an even more dangerous threat about to arrive on the scene. The only question left is will any of them get out alive.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Nemesis is an excellent turning point in the Orphan X series with great story arcs that embrace meaningful and engaging themes distinct to each character and also opens the door for an even rawer and emotionally beaten Evan like you would never expect by the end of the narrative. Hurwitz throws a curveball that will leave you stunned for the better part of a day when you finally reach the end."—Best Thriller Books

Great addition

While I thought this book was great I am a little upset about the ending. I am not going to soil it for those who have not read it yet, I will just say it was way too soon for this to happen……..way way too soon. Those who have read the story will know exactly what I am talking about and I am certain they will be of the same opinion.

Conflict Within

I loved the new improved Evan. The story was awesome, more like two stories in one. Evan is as lethal as ever in this book, but his character is more dimensional. I was entertained by the focus on Tommy, because he’s such a colorful character. Although I love orphan X, I like the storyline deviation from the typical desperate phone call and ensuing violence, as entertaining as Evan’s adventures always are. The narration was seamless. Just a great book all around.

Nooo not Tommy.

Great story. It was a different format from what the other story are. Another great story to listen too.

Damn you Greg Hurwitz and Scott Brick!!!

I’m not crying your crying! Best orphan X yet. Amazing how you built a character like these. I found myself taking sides between Tommy and Evan and changing whose side I was on. I heard Scott Brick say Greg Hurwitz is few of the writers who surprise him. He hit the nail on the head I try to figure out what will happen before it does . However like he said there’s always a surprise in the books.

Outstanding story

Love this book series. Burrito keeps coming up with great stories for X. Definitely ends on a down note. Great listen.

Evan becoming more human

I enjoyed the reading of thr story with so much feeling, getting to glimpse who Evan is compared to where he came from. Seeing Tommy care about Hicks, Jr. and see him for a young, lost person who didn't have many chances. The love and respect that actually existed between Evan and Tommy. Evan's code of justice, trying to even the playing field for the underserved.

Beautiful story with expected Orphan style

A great new book giving new excitement to the series! I cannot wait for the next release.

One hell of a book

19 hours you will not be able to put down. If you’re reading the Orphan X series, read this one last!

My favorite series

My absolute favorite books to listen too. The only problem is, I pre order then burn through the book when it hits. In two days at work, now I have to wait a whole year for the next 😭

Did NOT see that ending!

I love the Orphan X series and Scott Brick brings the adventure to life perfectly. I am on the edge of my seat.

I binge listen. Total addict - like the entire book in 2 days! i don't even talk to my family!! (I know, it's bad.) I love my family but how wrong is it that I am so impatient for the next book??
