So exciting!

So the narrators deep British accent is sort of hypnotizing, so I was thinking I’d listen to it as a “bedtime story”. Yeah, that didn’t work. Laying there, unable to sleep or stop listening for hours, tense with anticipation. Says a lot since I’m listening at half speed to a deep accented voice.
These books are definitely getting better. First couple were too disjointed, too many disparate storylines, too much unnecessary detail, main character POV / story only a small part of it. Much more streamlined and focused now.
The author also does an interesting job of making Mr total badass killer-agent very…. Human. Sprinkled in here and there— it doesn’t take up a lot of time. But a few snippets contain a lot. He’s a surprisingly sympathetic character.
I’m sure some people find it stupid, but I like it. Very solid Hero Fiction
