Publisher's summary

CIA director Thomas Stansfield is dead - and many individuals in the nation's capital are pleased to hear it. However, their happiness is short-lived because Stansfield's successor - his protege Dr. Irene Kennedy - plans on pursuing Stansfield's goals - a fact the late director's fiercest enemies refuse to accept.

Israel has discovered that Saddam Hussein is close to entering the nuclear arms race - and they've vowed to stop the Iraqi madman before he can get his hands on the ultimate weapon. With the Middle East teetering on the precipice of chaos and devastation, the president of the United States is forced to act.

The commander-in-chief's secret weapon? None other than the CIA's top counterterrorism operative, Mitch Rapp. With the haunting specter of World War III looming, Rapp races against time and impossible odds - navigating the deadly alleys of Baghdad, tearing through the corruption-riddled streets of Washington D.C., and taking drastic measures against anyone who gets in his way.

Hear Mitch Rapp, the CIA's top operative, battle global terrorism in more of Vince Flynn's political thrillers.

Abridged version

Chose this abridged version after reading the horrible reviews of the unabridged versions’s performance. Doesn’t anyone proof listen to performances before they are released?

Not the best Rapp novel

Not a bad job by Armand Schultz but the storyline wasn't too exciting. Hope the next is bryter.

Political Intrigue

Vince FLynn has written another great book on the political intrigue in Washington. While a book of fiction, it reflects much of the thinking and behavior that leads to the worse of our political institutions and refects what happens when big money and politics intersect and focus on their related interests to the detriment of the people's interests.

Worth the reading.

Enjoyment at its Max

I just love Vince Flynn's stories. He sure knows how to write them and the reader knows how to read each characters part and pull the listener into the story.

Flynn keeps rolling

Yet another excellent book by Vince Flynn. A great additon to the catalog. The abrigded audio format, while keeping the pace of the book, lacks the depth found in the unabridged print version. Do not let this dscourage you, however, download this book and you will not be sorry.

1st time listener to audible.

Is there anything you would change about this book?

I am a fan of Vince Flynn. When I got my Kindle Fire I purchased the book . I was given an option to get a trial for the audible as an accompaniment to the reading. I did. After listening to the audible, I was disappointed to find that I had a shortened condensed version. Sorry that left me unhappy. Not what I had expected. Since I ordered it by phone I guess I will learn. Not what I wanted!

Did Separation of Power inspire you to do anything?

Buy the book version!

Any additional comments?

As stated above!

I have really liked listening to all of them

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I think the books would be really thrilling with Dick Hill reading them, but I still liked it a lot with Guidall reading it. I like the unabridged versions better so it isn't over too soon.

Great continuation of Flynn's last book

The story kept me rivetted to the OTIS. I couldn't stop listening. This book is a great continuation and even better than the last one. I can't wait to start listening to the next one.
