Hailed as the finest combat aviation novel to emerge from the Vietnam War, Flight of the Intruder spent 28 weeks on the New York Times hardcover best-seller list and became one of the top-20 best-selling first novels of all time. An instant classic, the book was translated into more than 20 languages and made into a major motion picture. Its hero, Jake Grafton, became a household name and the star of many more Coonts’ best-sellers. Without question, the strength of the book lies in its flying scenes when Jake Grafton straps himself into the cockpit of his A-6 Intruder.

Wonderful book
Loved this one! The back story of the Baron was great! As usual Sean gets it done (with a little help from his friends!)

A Bit Weak
Unlike Angel of Death, Thunder Point and the other books of the "Sean Dillion series", this book didn't grab my attention. It seemed that Higgins rehashed the plots and rolled them into a new book.
If you a fan of the characters then you might enjoy it but if you've never heard/read any of Jack Higgins' works then I suggest trying one of his other books.

Once again Sean Dillon saves the day
Would you try another book from Jack Higgins and/or Patrick Macnee?
Yes from Jack Higgins, no from Patrick Macnee.
What didn’t you like about Patrick Macnee’s performance?
all of his characters sounded the same. Sometimes you weren't sure who was speaking. So sad for a Sean Dillon suspense.
Did Bad Company inspire you to do anything?
Hold out for a new Sean Dillon novel with Michael Page as narrator.

worst ever narration, it was so bad it hurt!
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Was the worst narration ever. So bad, i laughed at first and now it pains me to listen. his off timing tones and randomness was just unbelievable. This is the first bad review i have ever done for anything, but it was that bad...
If you’ve listened to books by Jack Higgins before, how does this one compare?
yes. i love almost every book so ,far and ever narrator.
Would you be willing to try another one of Patrick Macnee’s performances?
NEVER, in fact i will avoid them

Higgins has written better
Higgins can spin a great WWII yarn, but this is not one of them and the reader doesn't help matters. After 2 hours I decided there were better books on this website and I stopped listening altogether...
