Hunter-Killer

Danny Black, Book 2

De: Chris Ryan

Narrado por: Michael Fenner

Following a suicide bombing in central London, series SAS hero Danny Black is recruited to be part of an assassination squad, directed by a joint MI5/MI6/CIA committee and tasked with hunting down and killing the terrorist cells believed to be planning further atrocities. Early leads take them to a North London mosque and a one-armed hate cleric, whom the Home Secretary repeatedly tries and fails to expel from the country, a sleazy Saudi prince living in a Park Lane Hotel - on the surface a devout Muslim, he devotes himself to booze, drugs and hookers as soon as his family are out of the building - and a grizzled ex-Regiment guy who is spreading rumours that Diana was assassinated by the SAS in the tunnel in Paris because of her Arab lover.

The trail of clues takes Danny to a training camp in the Yemen, but just as he has the enemy in his sights, he discovers that they are somehow one step ahead of him, and he begins to suspect that they are being topped off by someone close to home.

Danny Black - Man of Honour

Well written book. excellently researched book that just keeps the pages flowing. cannot wait for the next book in the series to be released.

Excellent Story and Narration, however...

I am very disappointed that the 1st, 3rd, and, 5th books in this series are on Audible but cannot be purchased if one lives in the United States. Why allowed book 2?

Please release them.

Great story, obnoxious performance

Story is good, but hard to get through due to cringing at the voices for most of the non-leading characters. To bad, because it seems like Michael Fenner could do this well, but insists on making all of Danny's team mates, and many of the other characters sound like an English Elmer Fudd. The woman are whiny and obnoxious as well. Disappointing because book 1 was 5 star narration.

A good story ruined by an unskilled narrator

Finish book 1 in the awesome Danny Black series and went straight to Hunter-Killer. But what a let down when the narrator ruins the story by making everyone, but the main character, sound dumb and “cartoonish”. Especially the character Spud, is real bad and simply throws me off balance and right out of the “bubble”, which I’m supposed to be in when listening to an audio book.

Killer

Top notch in all respects. Outstanding plot, execution and narration; good enough to listen twice.

Story was hard to follow.

really hard to follow, had trouble finishing it. the performance was only thing that kept me going.

fast-paced action, excellent narration

Danny Black is my favorite of Ryan's SAS heroes and his adventures really come to life when narrated. An entertaining story with a couple of surprises. Doesn't let you down if you're looking for a hard-hitting no-holds-barred thriller.

Highly predictable story

This book tumbles from cliche to cliche, very reminiscent of Ryan’s first (and by itself pretty good) book in this series. In short: read that one, and forget about this one.
