Fantastic....again!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I'd recommend the entire Cotton Malone series. In fact, all of Steve Berry's books are fantastic. Think of a mix of Dan Brown and James Bond, then multiply the thrills, spills and intrigue by a factor of ten!
What does Scott Brick bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Scott Brick really has set himself apart from most other narrators. He is exceptional once again.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
If I had the time, I'd do the whole series again, back to back...

For me, the weakest thus far in the series
It seems as if the great secret is held off painfully long, even though we kind of know what's coming, and even the characters seem content to wait in frustration.
Also, I now wince each time I hear "that, he did" or "that, it was" etc, he uses it so often and it just annoys me lol, it's a personal thing but he even has had characters saying it. I don't think I have ever heard someone talk like that in real life.
When he had a a character ask Langdon, sorry I mean Cotton, about his name, it was so out of place, but clearly needed to go in somewhere as in all the books.
All in all though still pretty good and of course a must read if continuing the series. I hope it picks up a bit next book for me.

Sub Dan brown terribly delivered
The story is ok, if a bit cliched and lacking in real tension but the really big problem is the delivery. The reader makes little effort to distinguish between characters and I spent large parts of the novel trying to figure out who was saying what.
Avoid at all costs
