About this listen
From Mark Greaney, The New York Times best-selling author of Gunmetal Gray and a coauthor of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan novels, comes a high-stakes thriller featuring the world's most dangerous assassin: the Gray Man.
Court Gentry's flight on a CIA transport plane is interrupted when a security team brings a hooded man aboard. They want to kick Gentry off the flight but are overruled by CIA headquarters. The mystery man is being transported to England where a joint CIA/MI6 team will interrogate him about a mole in Langley.
When they land in an isolated airbase in the UK, they are attacked by a hostile force who kidnaps the prisoner. Only Gentry escapes. His handlers send him after the attackers, but what can one operative do against a trained team of assassins? A lot, when that operative is the Gray Man.

Now, he is going to prove that for him, there's no gray area between killing for a living-and killing to stay alive.

Great fun but...
I've really enjoyed listening to the Gray Man audible series whilst running, as I loathe running and the non-stop action makes the books an excellent diversion.
Up until this one I've really enjoyed the nuances in Jay's reading. I was always impressed at how he subtly moved from voice to voice with the different characters and imbued a sense of individuality in each voice.
However I'm British, and holy crap the accents in this one are jarring. Maybe the accents in the other books were jarring to natives of those locations. Hopefully none of the future books are set in the UK.

Between a phenomenal storyline and Jay Snyder's performance, I LOVE this series.
This installment of the Gray Man series is definitely in the top three of the series so far but that could be because I'm head over heels crazy about Zoya...

GREAT STORY Disgusting technical production.
I listened intently to the diminishing capability of the Gray Man and was saddened by how the character has become more lucky than fierce.
The Audible Production became a posted together mess of clips as I noticed from chapter 56 to the end. This brought me very close to calling it quits and asking for my first ever refund in a 200 title collection. Deteriorating character coupled with a lazy and rushed audio production should leave this only for the devout fan.

My last Gray Man novel
I used to enjoy the Gray man books. Always a bit silly, but usually a good story and it held some suspense. I guess Greaney has run out of steam because his latest is just an unbelievable bore. The plot is absurd, there are so many plot holes (ah yes the Russian Spetsnaz troops - 30! can't keep 9 American special forces troops at bay, even though they knew they were inbound? As I got near the end of the book it was obvious Greaney was just typing nonsense, trying to finish it, screw it if it doesn't make sense. A good thriller works because it is believable, but Mission Critical just isn't. For example, an escaping spy gets an executive jet owner to fly her to the UK - and she says she will pay later. Come on. And it takes 12 hours to get from Washington to London. Even with fuel stops (why 3 not 2) he writes that it takes 12 hours? And who pays for the fuel at each stop?
Sad all around.
