Pretty good spy story

This box set overall was pretty good listen. I had a hard time getting hooked in the first book. It was slow to catch my attention but by the middle the action had me listening any chance I got. The second and third books were not as slow to start but didn't grab my attention like most mystery/spy book do. The narrator did a fairly good job some parts seemed a bit dull but overall good. Overall this was a good set to listen to I received this book for free for an honest review.

A great bundle!

The best thing about reading the first three books back to back is that you can really appreciate the way the main character, Frank Bowen, is growing. How he is evolving, getting better at what he does.

Frank Bowen is a great character, interesting and easy to understand, the plots on these books are very well done, and the writing is engaging. A great choice for those who love thrillers.

Chris MacDonnell does a great job with the narration.

Great spy thriller set! Great intrigue!

Frank Bowen Conspiracy Thriller Series: Books 1-3 by Jay Tinsiano and narrated by Chris MacDonnell is an audible book set I requested and the review is voluntary. These books are very intriguing and exciting with plenty of action and adventure. After the first book I wondered why Frank would even trust his guys to give him another assignment! Book two he ended up in yet another predicament because of them! Ugh! Each book is a few years apart so maybe he forgot but I don't think I would! I don't want to tell you why to spoil it! The third book was kind of payback or karma, lol! I don't normally read or listen to shovels but I am trying to expand my horizons! I truly enjoyed these books.

Book1, False Flag, was a very intense politically thriller about a man set up as a terrorist while in Hong Kong. He was working for for the UK government at the time. The UK government is after him and the Hong Kong government. Soon Lots of governments have his picture. There is a lot of twists and turns, action, adventure, suspense, and a slight touch of romance in here. Fast paced.

Book 2 is Pandora Red and it is just as much a suspenseful thriller as book one. There are secret files that show how the UK is spying on it's people. Everyone wants the file and will do anything to get it. It is the UK version of the Snowden files! Government never admits wrong doing and accuses the whistleblower. But the story here is totally different! Wild and action packed! Our guy must quit trusting his MI6 friend!

Book 3, Ghost Order, deals with transporting an American from point A to B, no airplane, and keep him alive. There are a lot of people wanting him. They don't care how many or who the kill to get him. I liked this one best.

This was a great set and I probably wouldn't have read it if I hadn't made the effort to expand my wings!
The narration was wonderful, just like a British spy novel should sound in my head! Lol!

The Start of a Great Series

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an unbiased review.

Frank Bowen was just a regular guy that broke up with his girlfriend and traveled the world until he was used to execute some terrorist plot. As soon as he was hired to do some work from what I thought were some shady characters, that's when the action really started. Some of the story seemed like Frank had a lot of luck on his side as he was getting away from an assassin.
Eventually, the right people noticed something not right with Frank's situation and that's when everything started to wrap up in False Flag. I thought there was something off with Maria and still think so; I'm thinking she might be playing a long game on Frank, but only time will tell.

Pandora Red was an okay story. Frank gets hired and trained as a spy and by the end of the story he's on his own again. With a mission to surveil a target that has sensitive information, he's given no choice but to rescue the target, evade capture, and save his family that was kidnapped by Russians. By the end of the book, his agency lets him go for turning over sensitive info on a USB drive to a news agency and fights to get his family back from the Russians after Liberatus leaks the info. Liberatus reminds me of Wiki-Leaks.

Ghost Order has Frank separated from his girlfriend and kids and having to work another job in hopes of getting his family back. We see Liberatus again in this book and I feel like we will continue to see them in future stories. Again, Frank has to fight to get back to his family.

A lot of the stories remind me of some of the movies about the same topic; Mission Impossible, The Recruit, etc.

I would recommend this to anyone who likes the secret/rogue agent genre.

An entertaining set of conspiracy thrillers

The Frank Bowen Conspiracy Thrillers is a box set with three entertaining books about an ordinary seeming man who gets involved in intrigue and becomes a sort of James Bond like character as a result.

The narrator does a good job bringing the books to life.

I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook. This is my honest and voluntary review.
