Review of “Citizen Orlov”


Disclaimer: Please note that I received an Audio ARC from Netgalley and CamCat Books, in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

⭐⭐☆☆☆

So, “Citizen Orlov” by Jonathan Payne is okay. There’s plenty of action and twists to keep things moving along, but it never really grabbed me.

One thing worth mentioning is that I listened to the audio version, and maybe that’s why it didn’t click for me. It felt like I missed that connection to the story, so I couldn’t fully immerse myself in the world being built around me. The upside of this book is that the pace is fast, preventing any dull moments. (if that contradiction makes any sense?)

“Citizen Orlov” is a decent read for spy thriller enthusiasts, but it might not exceed your expectations. I suggest trying it out, but consider getting the physical/digital version instead of the audio release.
