There are some odd things about Nate’s new apartment. Of course, he has other things on his mind. He hates his job. He has no money in the bank. No girlfriend. No plans for the future. So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s.

It introduces a colorful new hero for our time - and a dazzling heroine every bit his equal. A spy mystery...a crime thriller...a passionate romance: Hunter is a genre-bending novel unlike any you've read. Deviously plotted, filled with vivid characters, and propelled at a breakneck pace.

Historia
The Spandau Diary -- what was in it? Why did the secret intelligence agencies of every major power want it? Why was a brave and beautiful woman kidnapped to get it? Why did a chain of deception and violent death lash out across the globe, from survivors of the Nazi past to warriors in this new conflict about to explode? Why did the world's entire history of World War II have to be rewritten as the future hung over a nightmare abyss?

Historia
When you have to kill the same terrorist twice in one week there’s either something wrong with your world or something wrong with your skills - and there’s nothing wrong with Joe Ledger’s skills. And that’s both a good and a bad thing. It’s good because he’s a Baltimore detective who has just been secretly recruited by the government to lead a new task force created to deal with the problems that Homeland Security can’t handle....

The Torus is the most expensive machine ever created by humankind, run by the world's most powerful supercomputer. It is the brainchild of Nobel Laureate William North Hazelius. Will the Torus divulge the mysteries of the creation of the universe? Or will it, as some predict, suck the earth into a mini black hole? Or is the Torus a Satanic attempt, as a powerful televangelist decries, to challenge God Almighty on the very throne of Heaven? Twelve scientists under the leadership of Hazelius are sent to the remote mountain to turn it on.

great story but a little toooo long
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I loved the hero and will get the next one that comes along. I have loved Preston and Child and look forward to their next book. I definitely would recommend this to anyone who likes mystery and adventure.

Decent well written potboiler
With twinges of Ian Fleming, Sherlock Holmes, and a whiff of Odd Thomas, this series continues to hold my interest. Some of the plotting felt forced, as seems to be typical of these authors. But the prose is tight, and there's plenty of action.

I hope there will be more books
Any additional comments?
I LOVED the Pendergast series & I was disappointed that it was wrapping up but I am hoping that Gideon Crew will be able to fill the void! So far so good.

Another hit
Where does Gideon's Corpse rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is another Preston Child wonder
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
The hell with sleeping
What about David W. Collins’s performance did you like?
I liked John Glover of the first book much better. but this guy is OK
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
The ending was non predictable which is nice with thrillers because so many of them are.

Gidieon's Introspection
This follow up book started rather slow, dragged at times but if you were a fan of the first book it is a must read.
These are two of my favorite authors, and with this new series they are trying to break the mold they have created for themselves. I shyed away from the first book because of all the negative reviews then I found out Gideon works for EES and that Eli Glinn is featured in this series and I downloaded without hesitation.
I admit I enjoyed the first book more because the story was more broken up, somthing this novel could have benefited from. Once the action got going I settled in and enjoyed it more. Quite a few thriller cliches but I suppose those are increasingly difficult to avoid. One element of this series I particularly enjoy is the use of social engineering. I look forword to more installments.
I really wish they had just when with Scott Brick from the get go but the two different narrators so far have been passable.

Good effort from great duo
Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child have been telling great stories for a long time, and they have definitely worked at perfecting the art. Book 2 in the Gideon series is a solid follow-up to the series opener. It adds the element of the ticking clock (missing from book 1) very effectively. The characters are believable, though the dialog is a little cheesy in spots. The narratation by David W. Collins is certainly adequate, though his calm voice seems a tad incongruous with the story at times. Fans of P&C's Pendergast series will see a pretty steep dropoff in overall quality between that series and the Gideon books, but this is intentionally a very different genre, so expectations should be adjusted accordingly. Interestingly, the authors chose to write about Muslim terrorists without having Muslim terrorists be the ultimate antagonists. It's also a bit strange that one character goes off on a tirade against China without ever mentioning the country by name. I do wish the authors had done more to address the primary conflict; you leave with the sense that although the crisis has been averted (for now), the larger problems remain. On the other hand, I suppose that reflects reality. All told, it's a good book by a pair of authors that readers have come to rely on for great storytelling.

Exciting!
Where does Gideon's Corpse rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is one of the best thrillers I've listened to.
What does David W. Collins bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He sounds fantastic. I thought it was Tom Cruise most of the time, but with better tone. He doesn't make mouth noises like smacking lips and gulping sounds that completely distract me which then force me to change the speed to get past the sounds. I need a narrator who sounds like David Collins. Also he doesn't color the character in the story with regional accents that dominate their voices. I love NY but I can do without the accent in narratives. David has a pure voice and never overdoes the dialog.
