Publisher's summary

His code name is Mr Clark. And his work for the CIA is brilliant, cold-blooded, and efficient...but who is he really? In a harrowing tour de force, Tom Clancy shows how an ordinary man named John Kelly crossed the lines of justice and morality - to become the CIA legend, Mr Clark.

This is an unforgettable journey into the heart of darkness. Without mercy. Without guilt. Without remorse.

My First Tom Clancy Book

What did you like best about Without Remorse? What did you like least?

Without Remorse was the first Tom Clancy book I've ready. It was very refreshing to read a new style and type of story line.
The audio quality was easily the worst I've heard though. Very unclear and little or no expression from the narrator.

How could the performance have been better?

The voice was unclear and rather expressionless when compared to all the other Audible books I've listened to.

Great story

A fast moving book well written with very plausible characters with human frailties. One of the authors best

1950's radio advertising

The narrator should stick to doing 1950's radio advertising as that's how his voice sounds, zero emotion or character building.
The clarity of the recording sounds like it was done with a kids microphone..

Flashback story of early years of CIA and marines in Vietnam war with drug connections to Baltimore.

Great story about a tragic widowed Navy Seal who does the vigilante character and somehow the story has a satisfactory outcome. Set about 1973 during crucial Vietnam war negotiations.

John Clark before CIA

What did you love best about Without Remorse?

The creation of CIA agent John Kelly AKA John Clark and the drug dealers and sex slavers getting what they deserve.

Have you listened to any of Michael Prichard’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes I have but I will not rate his performance as one of the best as he is just to monotonous.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes as you just want to know how John Kelly will make the Dealers and slavers pay.
