Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Richard Poe's performance is nothing short of phenomenal—his deep, resonant voice perfectly captures the jaded tone of protagonist Keller. The narration seamlessly transitions between the clinical detachment needed for hitman tasks and the introspective moments that hint at Keller’s inner turmoil. The production quality is top-notch, with sound effects that add a chilling realism to the audiobook. However, some might find the pacing slightly slow in certain sections, which could be attributed to Block's detailed storytelling. Overall, 'Hit and Run' offers a gripping listen for fans of literary fiction with a dark edge.
