Is that what you think Americans sound like?

Book 3: worst accents I’ve ever heard.
Story: wants to be like Jack Reacher stories, but falls fall short.

Great story

Really good fun series so far. Bit of a reacher esque story. Great action and character development .

good story, terrible attempt at accents

the narrators accent works great for the story and the environment that it takes place in. but please stop trying to do American accents.
a few southern accents and a new York accent are all butchered in their attempts. the only reaction these attempts produce is a quick break in the reality the story creates.

Sam Pope Series Frustrates

Robert Enright could do so much more with the Sam Pope series but he wastes so much time retelling the history of the main character, Sam Pope. I have listened to 5 books now and am so sick of hearing historical details resold many times, in each book. He could spend all of this time explaining details of Sam's upcoming missions or building side characters but instead he tells us a dozen times about Sam's son dying, blah, blah, blah. I've seen reviews comparing him to Lee Child and/or Robert Ludlum. Those comparisons are an insult to Lee and Robert.

Entertaining

The story line is probable, believable, easy to follow along and get wrapped up in the characters.

Unrealistic Overplayed

I like the idea but how many times can any man get beaten to a pulp and get back up? I think in this three book series he was shot four times in the shoulder over about a six month period. Too much !

enjoyed

had been searching for a new series
really enjoyed these three books well narrated by i think a nottingham lad !
highly recommended

Great characters, great storyline!

Great characters, Great storyline!! I love the Sam Poe character. The rest of characters are very well developed.

Good character premise

I liked the character Sam Pope. But by the 3rd book I was quite tired of hearing the name repeated more times than was necessary. Blurred lines and the death of his son were over emphasized as well. The narrator is not my favorite because like others have mentioned his accent abilities are not very good. I can see that the author has a good character but his knowledge of the subject matter of being a former elite soldier, and weapons knowledge is not well understood. The past/present jumping around was a bit hard to follow at times and out of place more often than was necessary in my opinion. Reading reviews of future books in the series this seems to be a recurring issue. The character is certainly likable but the writing style and the narrator leaves a poor impression overall.

Decent Writing, Distractingly Bad American Accents

Wanted to enjoy, and I really tried, listening to 3 books & starting a 4th. the stories themselves are okay; I just couldn't get past the appallingly bad American accents.
