About this listen

From Mark Greaney, The New York Times best-selling author of Gunmetal Gray and a coauthor of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan novels, comes a high-stakes thriller featuring the world's most dangerous assassin: the Gray Man.

Court Gentry's flight on a CIA transport plane is interrupted when a security team brings a hooded man aboard. They want to kick Gentry off the flight but are overruled by CIA headquarters. The mystery man is being transported to England where a joint CIA/MI6 team will interrogate him about a mole in Langley.

When they land in an isolated airbase in the UK, they are attacked by a hostile force who kidnaps the prisoner. Only Gentry escapes. His handlers send him after the attackers, but what can one operative do against a trained team of assassins? A lot, when that operative is the Gray Man.

great book, laughable accents.

great book but the narrator's English and "Scottish" accents were laughable.
and the pronunciation of the UK's cities were bizarre. great story though.

Most Exciting Take but lacks depth

I cant remember a single instance in this edge of seat yarn where he describes the local effect of the chaos!

Terrible British Accents - great story

Thoroughly enjoyed the story, even the laughter at the horrendous British accents and pronunciation. Hence the 3 stars for performance.

Non-stop

This was action packed. As usual the non-American accents by the narrator were laugh out loud funny at times, but I’m kinda used to that with this series

Anew destination and new drama!

it was exciting to have an important and interesting female character reappear! Court Gentry and his relationship issues! 🤣😂😅 Great with guns and chaos, attractive to the ladies but not exactly 007! I really like this character element though.
Lots of action, intrigue, family and work betrayals, etc, etc. For some reason, I didn't quite get into this book as much as some of the others, but it was still very good.
One thing that did frustrate me - despite Jay Snyder being amazing with all the voices again - was his pronunciation of Edinburgh and Oban. These initial made me grin but as the story progressed, the mispronounced names began to irritate me just a little bit. There may have been one or two more place names but these two were the most noticeable. It must be so hard to do so many different voices and accents so I still think Jay was amazing, I just think it's a shame that he didn't say the name of a famous Scottish city correctly. Oban is a smaller location by far but I have been there and heard the locals speak its name so I know that wasn't quite right either.
Overall though, good story, great narration apart from those place names and another great Gray Man book for my collection!

great story shame about the accents

the story was at the usual high octane grey man standard however the British accents were laughable, no dreadful!

didn't distract from the story though.
