Narrator is awful

Could be a good book, but the narrator is so incredibly bad I gave up.

Great historical account of how this unit came together and operated.

Well researched and informative about a very secretive unit. However If your wanting a book full of intense and gunfights or exciting covert missions you may want to look somewhere else. I hate giving bad reviews but the more books I read (listen to) that are written and read like a high school history book and read by a history teacher on the year he’s about to retire the more I realize I can’t finish them. When a chapter ends as your driving or whatever your doing as you listen and you go “what did I just miss out on because I was daydreaming about something else?” I know this isn’t my kind of book. If your into those kind of books this one is pretty good. I suppose?

Good book

It was good, but it was a massive cluster fuck about random events and was mostly jumbled instances. Great overall though. Good research.

the guy reading this book should go back to grade

the book sounds interesting, however audible should re record the reading of this book by someone else. the reader is awful. mispronounced words. poor inflection and expression. the reader failed to capture the author retelling his life story. british accent does not work for this book. ill buy the actual book and read it to get the real story....

Awful Narration

This might have been a pretty cool story, but you will find yourself more aggravated at the narrator for mispronouncing words and getting other words to totally wrong that you forget the story. It’s very odd hearing this accent try to discuss a deeply secretive American special operations group. I will avoid any book with this narrator
