Unabridged Audiobook
This was my first Daniel Silva book and although somewhat predictable, very entertaining. Good characters and wonderful pace. A very enjoyable way to get through traffic!
My first Daniel Silva book I've finished...I found the plot to be very predictable and ponderous in the telling. I've been trying to read his title "The Confessor" and just cannot seem to get enthused about his story telling at all. I cannot recommend this book, unless you want to learn a lot about European and Mid-East geography.
This was my first Silva/Allon novel, and I'm hooked! A fast-paced thriller with compelling characters and a not-too-improbable plot. I'll look for more Silva audiobooks in future!
My first Daniel Silva novel and was not disappointed. Great character development. Action was a little on the James Bond side, but the story kept its suspense as main character Gabriel Allon came to life. I will read more Silva with Allon as the protagonist.
Silva was a new author to us and we were very impressed. The background information about mid-east politics and the various European locations was obviously well-researched and presented without bias. The characters were vibrant and easy to like and the plot was spellbinding. The narrator did a good job with the various accents and keeping character voices consistent. We definitely want to try some more of Silva's books.
