À propos de cet audio

From the #1 internationally bestselling author of the Cartel Trilogy (The Power of the Dog, The Cartel, and The Border), The Force, and Broken comes the first novel in an epic new trilogy.

“Superb. City on Fire is exhilarating.” – Stephen King

"Epic, ambitious, majestic, City on Fire is The Godfather for our generation.” – Adrian McKinty, New York Times bestselling author of The Chain

Two criminal empires together control all of New England.

Until a beautiful woman comes between the Irish and the Italians, launching a war that will see them kill each other, destroy an alliance, and set a city on fire.

Danny Ryan yearns for a more “legit” life and a place in the sun. But as the bloody conflict stacks body on body and brother turns against brother, Danny has to rise above himself. To save the friends he loves like family and the family he has sworn to protect, he becomes a leader, a ruthless strategist, and a master of a treacherous game in which the winners live and the losers die.

From the gritty streets of Providence to the glittering screens of Hollywood to the golden casinos of Las Vegas, two rival crime families ignite a war that will leave only one standing. The winner will forge a dynasty.

Exploring the classic themes of loyalty, betrayal, and honor, City on Fire is a contemporary masterpiece in the tradition of The Godfather, Casino, and Goodfellas—a thrilling saga from Don Winslow, “America’s greatest living crime writer” (Jon Land, Providence Journal).

Great narration that brought a good crime family story to life. Danny Ryan is a compelling character and I’m looking forward to the next in the series.

Compelling story

Winslow is one of the best it comes to the lethal mix of drugs, relations with the opposite sex, greed, honour, violence, family, and people making stupid decisions. The style of the story telling is very similar to The Force which is one of the best cop books ever written. Fliakos is flawless and is a perfect fit for the style of Winslow's writing.

If you liked The Force, you will love this.

A spectacular narrator for a superb book. Must read for anyone who fancies a good gang/mob story.

Fantastic

My first Winslow was a great one. A sweeping crime epic full of vivid characters. The narration was brilliant, as the performance brings each of the characters to life… one of the best I’ve heard.
I shaved a star for some well worn tropes. But hey, don’t drop a dime on me, that’s how these things go. Highly recommended.

Great crime saga

Winslow at his best

I've listened to a number of Don Winslow's books. I really liked some of them, but this one could definitely be better. Wasn't terrible, but not his best.

Very Mediocre

The narrator, while not the worst I've heard, leaves a lot to be desired. I assume he is quite new to the job because he reads the book with an odd cadence at times - over emphasizing some words and under emphasizing others.

He also mispronounces a few.

I absolutely loved Don Winslow's Power of the Dog series, but this story doesn't hold a candle to that and neither does the narrator.

I don't recommend the book to anyone who expects it to be of similar quality to that trilogy.

Really poor narrator ruins the book.
