Rogue

De: Mark Sullivan

Narrado por: Jeff Gurner

Mark Sullivan has created a propulsive, compelling new thriller. Rogue, is one part Bourne Identity and one part Mission: Impossible, but listeners will also love the nod to Hitchcock’s It Takes a Thief. Two years ago, Robin Monarch was a top level CIA operative—perhaps the best they had when it came to black bag operations. Then one day, in the middle of an operation, with his team around him in the field, Monarch walked away, leaving his old life and friends behind without a word of explanation. Now this ex-soldier, ex-operative, and orphan with a murky past is a thief, stealing from the super-rich and has surfaced in St. Tropez. But when a complicated, high profile jewel heist goes wrong, Monarch is led into a carefully woven trap designed to force him to complete the very same mission he walked away from years ago. It will take all of his skills (as well as those of the team he burned) and all of his cunning, if Monarch is to thwart the violent and deadly goals of the very powerful cabal who will do whatever it takes to bring the very dangerous "Green Fields" technology under their control.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A true juggernaut of a thriller, pure adrenaline in print. With the creation of Robin Monarch, Sullivan has crafted a Jason Bourne for the new millennium." (James Rollins)

Unique protagonist

Being a fan of Vince Flynn and Brad Thor genres, I found this book to be a nice but subtle change. Robin Monarch a man who lives by a specific code can do amazing things on his own but on a team he shines. A thief then Military Special Ops then CIA and then back to a thief...he is very unique. I truly enjoyed this book and look forward to the next installment.

Good action story & characters

Good story line and development for those who like action packed special forces characters. Narrator above average for diverse voices and accents.

Meh

Way too unbelievable. If you had billions of dollars you might be able to do half of the things the character does. The story has a decent message but I would have liked it more if it had been more realistic.

Rogue Story

We listened to Beneath A Scarlet Sky, knowing it was a true story, so well put together and narrated, that we thought Rogue would be in the same class; it was not.
We felt the storyline was far fetched and fragmented; timelines were too unrealistic and virtually impossible, yet the author wanted the listener (and reader) to believe the impossible.
Definitely not his best work.

Found a new series.

A fast paced story. Next in series has better reviews than this one. I'm looking forward to it. It's in my wish list.

Good story but poor knowledge of weapons

Enjoyed the story, a bit unbelievable but entertaining. Only complaint is, either the author or narrator did poor research on weapons.
1. Its Heckler and Koch (coke) not COCK!
2. They are not Clips, they are Magazines, Always!
3. Tank research was atrocious

Great story if these details don’t bother you

Riveting Story, Well Read, Suspenseful Ending

So many characters and yet the author manages to give you a feeling for each-- as does the narrator. And the story itself flowed. Never a time did I want to put the book down!
