Reseñas de la Crítica

"His description of the White House is impressive; readers will wonder if the secret passageways, hidden rooms, and clever deception devices that help load this story with seemingly endless intrigue really exist." (Publishers Weekly)

Excellent Book!

I've listened to the entire series, and they're all excellent, and this one is no exception.

Too Abridged

Why would you make a version of this book that is not even 5 hrs long? Ruined the flow of the book.

A Fun Book

This was an interesting and fun book. It’s not Hemingway but I think enjoyed it and well worth a credit.

It doesn't get any better than Mitch Rapp

Another terrific novel by Vince Flynn. Well written, narrated and an intriguing plot. Let's hope it remains fiction

Excellent book!

Once again, Vince Flynn does a fantastic job! Riveting and edge of your seat audiobook.

A good book, flawed by its audio counterpart

I haven't been an audible customer for long but most of what I've purchased I've been happy with. I'm a large fan of Vince Flynn's works, and I was looking forward to listening to the Mitch Rapp series. While this would be a good listen to someone who hasn't read the book before, Audible hurts the book by not labeling it as abridged. Huge portions of character development, plot points and major scenes are completely left out. This would have been an easy 5 stars if Simon & Schuster Audio had done this book in its unabridged glory.

Back on his game

With Transfer of Power, Vince Flynn was back on his game. The story line was clear, the characters believable and the details of the White House make you wonder if Mr Flynn doesn't have an inside source of information. My only recommendation is to put all his books out in an unabridged offering in addition to the abridged version, because the story moved so quickly it left you longing for more.

Great story short-changed

Like many of the other reviews about this audiobook, I have the same comments. I really enjoyed the story/plot, the characters, and found Flynn to be an excellent writer. However, I felt really short-changed listening to this book in an abridged format. I honestly don't know why it wasn't produced in an unabridged version, as it seemed to be a very good book. I almost didn't get it because it was abridged, and for those members who are sitting on the fence as I was, I would recommend getting it, if for no other reason than to keep up with the background story of Mitch Rapp, a very cool character. The story is fluid, and I wouldn't say that while listening to it one can tell where the story has been cut. However, while listening, there was no real character development, lots of interesting details that one would long to hear weren't there, and the reader was left enjoying what was there, but wanting more. If the rest of the story was as good as this I would have given it five stars, hands down.

Did not like narration.

Did not like the narration. there were to many glitched out words in beginning of a chapter.

Great story

Suspenseful and enthralling account of a White House takeover. It was interesting to read an early Mitch rapp novel after reading many of the later books where he has years of experience under his belt.
