Summary
#1 New York Times best-selling author Vince Flynn is back with another nail-biting political thriller that follows the young Mitch Rapp on a deadly mission to hunt down the men responsible for the Pan Am Lockerbie terrorist attack.
For months, Mitch Rapp has been steadily working his way through a list of men, bullet by bullet. With each kill, the tangled network of monsters responsible for the slaughter of 270 civilians becomes increasingly clear. He is given his next target: a plump Libyan diplomat who is prone to drink and is currently in Paris without a single bodyguard.
Rapp finds him completely unprotected and asleep in his bed. With confidence in his well-honed skills and conviction of the man’s guilt, he easily sends a bullet into the man’s skull. But in the split second it takes the bullet to leave the silenced pistol, everything changes. The door to the hotel room is kicked open and gunfire erupts all around Rapp. In an instant the hunter has become the hunted. Rapp is left wounded and must flee for his life.
The next morning, the news breaks in Washington that Libya’s Oil Minister has been killed along with three innocent civilians and four unidentified men. The French authorities are certain that the gunman is wounded and on the loose in Paris. As the finger pointing begins, Rapp’s handlers have only one choice - deny any responsibility for the incident and pray that their newest secret weapon stays that way, avoiding capture and dying quietly. One person in the group, however, is not prone to leaving things to chance. Rapp has become a liability, and he absolutely cannot be allowed to be taken alive by the French authorities. But it will soon become clear that nothing is more dangerous than a wounded and cornered Mitch Rapp.

Once again very poor narration
Would you try another book written by Vince Flynn or narrated by George Guidall?
Yes, book good narration poor
What other book might you compare Kill Shot to, and why?
Most from the genre: leather, Robotham, Ryan, Baldaccie etc. - fast, pacey etc
Would you be willing to try another one of George Guidall’s performances?
Yes, but probably only to confirm my dislike for his performance!
Was Kill Shot worth the listening time?
Yes, it was great to listen to whilst doing the gardening
Any additional comments?
This narrator completely spoiled what could have been a good book. He emphasised the wrong words in sentences, took breaths in the middle of sentences and didn't even bother to try different voices for the characters. Overall he was appalling.

Wow wow wow!
Absolutely awesome story. Probably the best I have heard in years. Undoubtably as good as both Steven Leather and Lee Child at their best!

The first book written in the Mitch Rapp series
Although this is the book that was written first in the Mitch Rapp series, it is chronological set after America Assassin. It is a stand alone but, if you are new to the series, best read in order.
love all the books in this series and really enjoy George Guidall's narration.

Brilliant book and series
Firstly George Guidalls voice lends perfectly to this book he truly is excellent and his foreign accents come across as natural with each character. As I said his voice really adds to the characters but especially to Stan Hurley!
This book has the right balance of what you'd need to keep you hooked and listening.
If you've started on the Michael Rapp series, (American Assassin) I garrentee you won't be disappointed. I've listend to all of them and now re listening to them the second time round which, for me is unheard of! But I've struggled to find another author as good at Clandestine espionage novels. Yes I had read Chris Ryan and Andy Mcnab and I still stand by that.
Enjoy

couple of good twists
I don't usually write reviews, I had to write this one, cos a previous review almost put me off about the narrator but it was a good performance. I guess you can tell from the sample if you can stand someone's ascent or not. story was also good with a couple of unpredictable twists

Very good to lose yourself. A great journey!
Starts off steady but grows with intensity towards the end. Vince Flynn's writing style within the book also seems to develop as the book goes on. That's just my perspective, I'm not a huge book worm though.
