State of the Union

De: Brad Thor

Narrado por: George Guidall

America’s worst nightmare has just become a brutal reality. The most unlikely terrorist enemy of all now holds a knife against the country’s throat. With both diplomatic and conventional military options swept from the table, the president calls upon Navy SEAL turned Secret Service agent Scot Harvath to disable a brilliantly orchestrated conspiracy intended to bring the United States to its knees.

Teamed with beautiful Russian Intelligence agent Alexandra Ivanova and a highly trained CIA paramilitary detachment, Harvath embarks on an adrenaline-fueled search that spans the world - and leads to a final, deadly showdown on American soil, with a lethal and sinister enemy from the past.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Frighteningly real." ( Ottawa Citiz)

"Scot Harvath is the perfect all-American hero for the post-September 11th world." (Nelson DeMille)

AWESOME!

This might be the best book Brad Thor has written...great story line and an awesome narration!

The Story line is actually pretty impressive

Coming into the book I was a bit skeptical of the transition from Armand to George, but having listened to other Guidall books I have learned to love him. The story itself is really good. Everything is well thought out and explained. Perhaps over explained but in a good way. I think Scott needs to get his love life in check eventually in one of these books, it seems like the author loves putting out temptations everywhere for this all american hero, it makes it interesting to see what he will do next.

From the perfect narrator to the WORST!

What made the experience of listening to State of the Union the most enjoyable?

I have no idea who is who?

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Don't get me started! Scott H is now a French guy.....wth

Any additional comments?

This is the worst narrator swing I have experienced to date. brad Thor is done as far as I am concerned!!!

Cold War Level

Loved it. Great story. If you like cold war era inspired novels, this is great. Narration was bad. Narrator sped through tense moments every time. Once you get past the bad narration, you can really enjoy the excellent writing. Would recommend.

Awesome book

Loved the story but preferred the narrator from the first 2 books. Non stop action and suspense. Can't wait to start the next one.

Good but.. Hmmm....

The story was gripping. The details were awesome yet a few times over the top. But overall, effective. I had many times when listening been aggregated that the narrator was not the original from the first two books. This narrator, was a great deal older and while a overall good story teller, the fact that all of the characters' voices had changed, seemed to make me invision extremely old people as all of the main stars. It was a bit distracting and annoying at times but I debt with it to finish this book and move on. Overall I still thoroughly enjoy the Scott Harvath series and will definitely continue to listen and share with others. Thank you Brad Thor, and thank you George Guidall.

Continues to impress

Brad Thor continues to impress and keep the reader enthralled in the book and what Scot is up to next.

New Narrator

struggled with the new voice of scott harvath and Brad thor. story was just okay. entertaining however.

Awesome listen

I think I like the other narrator on the Harvath books more but this was a great listen. Loved the cat and mouse with Harvath and the Russian operatives. You know he'll save the day but it was still tense up to the end if Scott can stop the plot from being unleashed. Love Brad Thor's writing. I do find it amusing that all the female operatives are gorgeous.

Good Read made better by the George Guidall

George Guidall is the best narrator I have heard. He can take a mediocre novel and turn it in to a winner.
