Nice lifestyle

Good stuff. I'll read more in the series. I enjoy the adventures in the tropics.

Fun adventure

I really liked my first listen of this series. It was adventurous and since I am residing in Florida and boat and fish, it struck a tone with me. I like it enough to look for the next episode. At first I wasn't into the narrator, then after I gave it a listen I was alright with Aiden. Keep mind my benchmark is Ray Porter, so that's a tough one. He did a good job overall. As with all these stories, you have to be able to relax and enjoy it, knowing that the idea that these guys really would get in the middle of all off this is far fetched. What I like is that the author is a good researcher and most of them lingo and military references are on target for the most part.

nice 1st story in a series

n" was a little put off with the sexuality but I figured it's modern authors... I like the story line.It's a simple, flawed knight in shining armor. A story in the great Florida tradition of Travis Mcgee, (John D Macdonald) James W. Hall’s "Thorn",Charles Willeford, Miami Blues Hoke Mosley Randy Wayne White Doc Ford,Alex Rutledge series by Tom Corcoran if you haven't read these authors, lucky you. some great ones to explore. I could have mentioned more...a shout out to my dad for turning me on to Travis Mcgee...look forward to the next book in this series

Hard to make it through the voice burn

The narrator is really hard to listen to and really takes away from the main character. The overall story was good but any time the main character was supposed to come off tough or charming the reader made him sound whinny and weak.

Liked the main character, not too overbearing

Good story with enough twists and turns to prevent the plot from being a cliche
