Publisher's summary

Action-packed from the start, Hidden Order demonstrates yet again why Brad Thor is the "master of thrillers".

A string of high-profile kidnappings has Washington, D.C., in a frenzy. When the victims begin turning up dead, frenzy turns to panic. And when the ransom demand is finally made public, panic will turn to terror. In Brad Thor's riveting new thriller, the stakes have never been higher, nor the lines between good and evil so hard to discern.

too preachy

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

Armand is always fantastic.

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

no.

Any additional comments?

I like Brad Thor and the Scot Harvath series. This one has all the elements of a good Harvath novel but Thor has gotten much too preachy by inserting his political views and making political statements where he can. Just tell me a story -- don't try to convert me.

Fantastic Educational Thriller

Any additional comments?

Brad Thor is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. He has written several of these thriller novels and all of them have been sensational. I've studied extensively the back ground of the federal reserve and from research everything Brad explained in story form for this novel seemed pretty much spot on. I enjoy an author who creates a rivoting story about problems that seem to effect our daily lives whether we know it or not.

This was a book that I didn't want to stop listening to and one that made my long commute to work seem much shorter.

Scary if this is to be based on any kind truth

Very scary if this is to be based on any kind truth, great book. Scot Harvath showing he is not just a brute but is very intelligent.

The characters & story are great!

I really enjoyed this book. The characters & story are great! You can't go wrong with a Harvath book.

Great story mixed with misogyny

Does Scot Harvath ever meet a woman who ISNT extremely attractive? Every woman he ever comes in contact with or is partnered with is always 100% described as stunning, Why is that?

Other than that I enjoy this series very much.

Glad I didn't listen to the negative reviews!

I really enjoyed this book. You do have to pay attention to the historical details but typical Scot Harvath storyline except it takes place in the US and not 14 different countries. A little slower pace than previous ones but great plot. My only criticisms are I was a little disappointed in who one of the villains was and the final chapter should have been part of the storyline and not a speech by the president. Otherwise enjoyed it very much.

Harvath rocks again and shows some vulnerability.

Armand Schultz still one of the best narrators, even if his Boston accent is a little to Kennedy-esque and over the top...still wicked-pissah!

Outstanding Storytelling

Another amazing masterpiece, simply brilliant! Captivating narrative, great plot.vivid characters and attention to detail which bring a them to live. Can’t wait for a movie studio to pick this up and give us a blockbuster.

methodical and fascinating

Brad Thor's books 9 through 11 are questionable but this is where he starts to turn the corner and pick up that amazing writing that he has that I believe makes him legendary and puts him in the category with Tom Clancy. If you're reading this review and you haven't read Mark of the Athena by Brad Thor definitely skip it otherwise you may stop reading the series entirely. Out of the 20 books that I've read by Brad Thor Mark of the Athena definitely is one that made me want to quit the series. Books 9 through 11 we're hard to make it through but the rest of them are amazing. Thank you sir for giving this to the world.

Fantastic

Loved the development of Scott. I see his growth and change as a character. The story line was great and the ending was satisfactory.
The books truly make one ponder the possibility. Scary if it turns out to be based on fact, but it would not be surprising given the state of the world today.
