Summary

From the bestselling author of DEFCON One comes an explosive techno-thriller.

While Congress debates the merits of continued funding for the stealth bomber, sinister forces have their own goals in mind. During a training exercise, a B-2 bomber disappears. When search efforts produce no evidence that the bomber crashed, the US Air Force has no choice but to acknowledge that one of its most secret and high-tech aircraft has been hijacked.

Recovery of the B-2 and its crew becomes the president's highest priority, and the Kremlin claims no knowledge of the missing aircraft. Finally, intelligence leads to what at first seems a very unlikely suspect: Cuba. But could the tiny nation pull off a theft of this magnitude? And what might its plans be for the highly sought-after aircraft? Getting the answers to these questions becomes the top-secret mission for CIA agent Steve Wickham, for without those answers, only one solution will remain: invasion. And if the US invades, World War III will certainly follow.

Reasonable story worst narration I have heard

What disappointed you about Shadow Flight?

The narration

Who was your favorite character and why?

Not really that sort of story.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narration was awful, accents were either completely over the top or laughably bad. I struggled to listen to parts of it which was a shame, because it wasnt a bad book.

What character would you cut from Shadow Flight?

none of them.

Great story dodgy narration.

Narrator is a difficult listen. Often sounding like crusty the clown when attempting accents.
That said the story is a great listen with lots of technical detail👍🏻

Ruined by narration

A good story but some of the dialogue from supposedly military characters just doesn't convince, which isn't helped by the narration, which make them sound like country bumpkins.

Terrible narration and too much technical detail

I mostly enjoyed the story but there was excessive technical detail about the planes. Worst narrator I’ve heard on audible! The accents were terrible. With a better narrator and bit of editing would be a decent story

Reasonable storyline

Not bad storyline but author is way to interested in the technical side of the aircraft and weapons which spoiled the tension of the battle

Decent story

The story was good. I think there's a problem with the speed of the narrator. I had to listen at 1.45 speed and it sounded OK.

I lasted 10 seconds

I’m afraid to say I cannot comment on the actual story here, it could be great or it could be awful. I don’t know because I couldn’t get past 10 seconds of this insanely hideous narrator. Who the hell commissioned this idiot to read an audiobook???

Good story BUT

The narration is truly awful. sounds like a drunk person swinging between happy and aggressive. I was a struggle to listen to the end.
Very " God Bless America"
