The Widow's Strike

De: Brad Taylor

Narrado por: Henry Strozier, Rich Orlow

Compared to such luminaries as #1 New York Times best-selling authors Brad Thor and Vince Flynn, Brad Taylor delivers edgy and adrenaline-drenched military thrillers. The Widow's Strike pits Taskforce operator Pike Logan and his partner Jennifer Cahill against a Chechen suicide bomber intent on releasing a deadly, genetically mutated virus. Traversing the globe to stop this catastrophe, the two soon discover there is a more dangerous enemy lurking in the shadows.

Pike Logan does it again

Would you consider the audio edition of The Widow’s Strike to be better than the print version?

I really don't have much time to read, so I listen to audio books on the way back and forth between the 2 colleges that I teach at.

What did you like best about this story?

The danger of a bio-weapon attack by militant enemies of the US

Have you listened to any of Henry Strozier and Rich Orlow ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Probably have, but I am not sure if I like having two narrators.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The book really made me more aware of the nature of Islamic extremists.

Any additional comments?

I enjoy the Pike Logan series,although the concept of a secret council is a little hard to accept.

2 narrators causes confusion

I enjoy this series but find it challenging to continue to listen to the story when it’s broken up with 2 very different voices. They aren’t distinct characters as they both read the same characters in different ways.

A reward for those who put up with the first couple books

The first excellent book in the series in my opinion. Much less painful dialogue and a fun plot. Narrators are still annoying at times and fail to pronounce things well. Also, completely lazy narration and complete lack of effort for accents. Overall though an entertaining story.

good storyline

it was a bit too predictable.had humor and over was good listen. I will do more of this series

Great story and performance!

Very good story from the Pike Logan series. Chilling in the realistic nature of the threat.

keeps getting better

never get tired of this series. mr Taylor drags out all the stops with today's worries about the unstoppable flu being used as a terrorist weapon.

Only thing I could say is He is a master

This is another home run from Thor and the Narration was amazing
Must Buy it. No Fence to sit on just get it,

Very enjoyable

Pike and Jennifer are as good as they come. Narration was very good. All in all another excellent book by Taylor. The only complaint I have is the penchant of some "operators" to threaten support staff with violence if they don't do the impossible faster. I get that they are violent individuals, and they desperately need whatever they ask for, but the support staff is on their side and deserve a modicum of respect.

a good continuation of a series

moral of the story: Don't get on a cruise ship. seriously though, they really aren't worth it.

Action Action Action

What a ride! Love the characters, the plot and the writing. If you want a story that holds your attention this it! This is a WELL written story and an excellent narration.
