Nine Lives

De: Aimen Dean, Tim Lister, Paul Cruickshank

Narrado por: Assaf Cohen

As one of al-Qaeda's most respected bomb-makers, Aimen Dean rubbed shoulders with the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks and swore allegiance to Osama bin Laden himself.

As a double agent at the heart of al-Qaeda's chemical weapons program, he foiled attacks on civilians and saved countless lives, brushing with death so often that his handlers began to call him their spy with nine lives.

This is the story of how a young Muslim, determined to defend his faith, found himself fighting on the wrong side - and his fateful decision to work undercover for his sworn enemy. From the killing fields of Bosnia to the training camps of Afghanistan, from running money and equipment in Britain to dodging barrel bombs in Syria, we discover what life is like inside the global jihad, and what it will take to stop it once and for all.

Phenomenal

This is one of the best spy stories out there. The philosophical pontificating at three ends is amazing too.

An excellent and profoundly informative book

This was an excellent and profoundly informative book, which was both exciting and frightening in equal measure.
Sadly, in its realistic description of the underlying roots of Jihadism, it leaves the reader depressed for the future of Islam’s relationships with the Civilized World.

Amazing book

Can only imagine how many more lives would have been saved if not for times magazine revealing his identity.

Exceptional

Discovered this book after listening to the podcast "Conflicted" which I definitely recommend also. Amazing account of events that we all think we know about, but things look different when you are in the 81mm pit in Bosnia, in the jungle with MILF, or walking the rope with terrorists and MI6. Credit worthy!

Hooked

This book takes a while to get into, but once you do, you will not be able to put it down.
