Summary
The Kill List: a top-secret catalogue of names held at the highest level of the US government. On it, those men and women who would threaten the world's security. And at the top of it, The Preacher, a radical Islamic cleric whose sermons inspire his followers to kill high-profile Western targets in the name of God.
As the bodies begin to pile up in America, Great Britain and across Europe, the message goes out: discover this man's identity, locate him and take him out. Tasked with what seems like an impossible job is an ex-US marine who has risen through the ranks to become one of America's most effective intelligence chiefs.
Now known only as The Tracker, he must gather what scant evidence there is, collate it and unmask The Preacher if he is to prevent the next spate of violent deaths. Aided only by a brilliant teenaged hacker, he must throw out the bait and see whether his deadly target can be drawn from his lair.

Excellent but a little slow in parts
This was a typical excellent Forsyth novel. Well researched and fun. It was just a little slow in parts.

not great
Not one of his best, and the accents from the narrator are not great either

Heard it all before
Everything in this story has been a) done before, b) better, c) by Frederick Forsyth himself. I bet he wrote this book on a tablet - half of it could have been written by predictive text.

Brilliant Forsyth
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Another book I could not put down. The British Special Forces Op was nailbiting.

Intriguing storyline if a bit predicable
Where does The Kill List rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
First audiobook purchased through Audible. As it stands a good purchase.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Kill List?
The most memorable part was when it became personal to the main character.
Have you listened to any of John Chancer’s other performances? How does this one compare?
The narration seemed a little tedious. More work was needed on the welsh accent which really didn't work.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I got through this audiobook in two sittings. I imagine this would be quite a page turner in print format
Any additional comments?
The epilogue double played on my version. And if I'm completely honest, seemed a bit rushed. Almost as though the author got bored.

Gripping thriller!!
Frederick Forsyth always delivers. Once again this is one that I will listen to again. John Chancer's narration was eqal to the story. Excellent. If you have not heard this one, then I recommend that you do.

Very disappointing book, poorly narrated
Really disappointed, the storyline is excellent but there’s way too much unnecessary detail. To add to this the narration is very poor. Think Dick van Dyke in Mary Poppins for the English accents, and then add a Welsh accent that sounds like an Indian waiter. Not recommended
