The Enemy by Tom Wood
5.0
OK, I’m now fully in love with Tom Wood’s writing and Victor as a character. Not only are these books full of terrific action, suspense, & thriller aspects – but Victor’s internal thought process is fascinating. Anticipatory Forensics. He has this way of breaking down everything that could happen in every scenario and why he does the things that he does. He’s not perfect or untouchable – but the fact that he’s so successful in what seem like impossible situations is believable because Wood fully establishes Victor’s expertise and experience.
I love that, even while we’re getting a look into the minds and actions of others – it’s not always easy to tell who is responsible for what. There are a lot of surprises throughout the book. At almost 15 hours – it’s a lot of story, but I feel engaged the entire time. I have a hard time when I need to push pause and look forward to jumping back in. Wood tosses in a little dry humor and irony that helps me crack a smile even during very intense scenes.
I’ve already purchased book 2.5, Gone by Dawn.
Narration:
Rob Shapiro was fantastic again. Victor is very cerebral and Shapiro has this wonderful way of presenting it so that I can appreciate that Victor still has humanity, personality, and wit. Wood has a lot of characters with a variety of accents and Shapiro keeps them consistent even from book 1, The Killer, which makes these audiobooks easy to binge.
