Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Paul Thornley's narration brings Underdogs to a whole new level. His deep, resonant voice perfectly matches the gravity and urgency of Leather's writing. The story follows Jack, a former soldier turned private security consultant, as he races against time to prevent a catastrophic event. The pacing is relentless, with each chapter building tension that peaks in dramatic fashion. However, I found some scenes felt slightly rushed, possibly due to their complexity, which could have benefited from more subtle nuance. Still, the overall experience is an exhilarating ride, and Leather's plot twists are as captivating as they are unpredictable. This audiobook is a must-listen for those who love non-stop action with a touch of mystery.
