The Darkest Day

Victor the Assassin, Book 5

By: Tom Wood

Narrated by: Rob Shapiro

While carrying out a hit on a terrorist financier, Victor finds himself the target of an assassin who proves to be just as deadly as he is. Never one to let such a thing go, Victor sets about hunting down his attacker and those who sent her. She is Raven - a freelance assassin with a dark past and hidden agenda. If Victor wants to stay alive, he must find out who Raven really is and what she is truly after. Does she really want him dead, or does someone else want them to kill each other?

With the stakes growing higher by the minute - as a city-wide blackout plunges Manhattan into darkness - Victor and Raven must decide who is friend and who is foe before a deadly terrorist plot threatens to consume the city and them along with it.

Good but could have been better.

I love the series and the character. However, I must say Victor was kind of nerfed in this novel; perhaps, in order to make room for another: Raven. I still enjoyed the book and look forward to the next. Hopefully Victor returns to true form.

Pretty pretty pretty good

Victor once again proves he is the ultimate killing machine. Definitely got me with the ending, no doubt I wouldn’t still be alive.

Not one of Victor’s better books

Unfortunately, I slept through most of ending and I didn’t care enough to go back and listen. However, I still love Victor! Was hoping for a soulmate for him.

Tom Wood is awesome. Victor is a bad dude.

I can't get enough. and I would suggest hearing or reading them in order. from the beginning. you won't be disappointed!

that was so freaking good.

that was a really good book. I enjoyed it. can't wait until the next one is ready.
