À propos de cet audio
Mitch Rapp was a gifted college athlete without a care in the world…and then tragedy struck. Terrorists attacked innocent American citizens, and Rapp’s girlfriend was among the murdered. Two hundred and seventy souls perished on that cold December night, and thousands of family and friends were left searching for comfort. Mitch Rapp was one of them, but he was not interested in comfort. Now he wants retribution.
Two decades of cutthroat partisan politics have left the CIA and the country in an increasingly vulnerable position. Cold War veteran CIA Operations Director Thomas Stansfield knows he must prepare his people for the next war. America must confront Islamic terrorism with full force. Stansfield directs his protégée, Irene Kennedy, and his old Cold War colleague, Stan Hurley, to form a new group of clandestine operatives who will work outside the normal chain of command—men who do not exist.
What type of man is willing to kill for his country without putting on a uniform? Six months of intense training have prepared him to take the war to the enemy’s doorstep, and he does so with brutal efficiency. Rapp starts in Istanbul, where he assassinates the Turkish arms dealer who sold the explosives used in the terrorist attack. Rapp then moves on to Hamburg with his team and across Europe, leaving a trail of bodies. All roads lead to Beirut, though, and what Rapp doesn't know is that the enemy is aware of his existence and has prepared a trap. The hunter is about to become the hunted, and Rapp will need every ounce of skill and cunning if he is to survive the war-ravaged city and its various terrorist factions.
This is “a bold and brawny tale that never wavers or lets up. The voice of today’s postmodern thriller generation, Flynn has never been better” (The Providence Journal) in this unforgettable novel of a young man primed to become an American assassin.

Court Gentry is known as The Gray Man—a legend in the covert realm, moving silently from job to job, accomplishing the impossible, and then fading away. And he always hits his target. But there are forces more lethal than Gentry in the world. And in their eyes, Gentry has just outlived his usefulness. Now, he is going to prove that for him, there's no gray area between killing for a living-and killing to stay alive.

Family means different things to different people, but in the Gray Man’s world, family is defined by blood—the blood you share with some and the blood you shed with others. Court Gentry’s current family operates out of an office park in Norfolk, Virginia. The Ghost Town is an off-the-books direct action team run by Matt Hanley, former CIA Deputy Director. They take on the jobs the Agency needs handled “discretely,” and those jobs are rolling in. Somewhere at the top of the US Intelligence apparatus, security experts and intelligence operations worldwide are threatened.

I enjoyed the listen. The narrators voice gently lulled me to sleep a few times in a good way. But was peppy enough for listening at any time.

Flynn follows Mitch Rapp from College (as a Nationally-ranked Lacrosse player no less.. admittedly odd qualifications for a Covert Operator) - to CIA training - to the Middle East on the hunt for the ones responsible for a terrorist bombing that killed his girlfriend. Along the way, hand-to-hand combat and gun battles abound, while villainous bad guys plot to unleash death on the CIA Agent and the unsuspecting public. Doubtless, existing fans of the character will get much more from the novel than a newbie like me.. but I very much enjoyed it.
As an example of adrenaline-fuelled entertainment in the Action-Thriller genre, 'American Assassin' is above-average. Flynn's characters are cartoonish but realistic, the plot is unoriginal but engrossing, and the combat sequences are scripted but vividly described. I was pleasantly surprised by this book.
The narration from George Guidall is professional (I would characterize it as "adequate").. easy to consume for hours (this audiobook would be great for a long drive); exhibiting admirable tone/timbre/cadence; and demonstrating passable voice-acting (accents are largely delivered realistically). Less fortunately, Guidall's rate of reading is a bit slow - but I listened at 1.15X speed to satisfactory effect. Simon & Schuster Audio selected the reader nicely.
Overall, I judge this a "very good" Action-Thriller.. meriting 8.5 stars out of 10. If you're a fan of Vince Flynn, this book will certainly satisfy. If, like me, you're a casual fan of the genre: the writing is inferior to Ludlum or Clancy, but is slightly better than what Mars or Hurwitz offer, and is far better than Greaney or Child. It's worth the Credit.
