Ash

Asher Benson Book 1

By: Jason Brant

Narrated by: Wayne June

9 AM EST: A senator shoots himself on national television.

10:32 AM EST: An entire floor of government agents leap to their death from their office building.

12:57 PM EST: All the police officers inside a station murder each other.

And the day has just begun.

Lieutenant Asher Benson left Iraq with a traumatic brain injury, PTSD, and a Purple Heart. His doctors warned that the symptoms would be life altering. They had no idea. As his body healed, the thoughts of those around him began to echo through Ash's mind, stretching the boundaries of his sanity.

Five years later, Ash is drowning the voices with copious amounts of booze and self-loathing.

When unidentified intelligence agents abduct him in broad daylight, Ash is thrust into a world of espionage and assassinations. A unique terrorist is operating on U.S. soil, and the government needs Ash, and the malady that has plagued him for half a decade, to find the killer.

Asher

Loved the story. Bought in Audible and Amazon. In search of book two. The humor reminds me of Nelson Demille's Agent John Corey.

Uninteresting

The beginning of the book didn't hook me and it was not what I expected.

good book

great charters, The story was wonderful, fast pasted ! The narrative was grear, This is my first Audible book. . it was a lot different than I expected, but I like it a bunch!!!!

some hokey dialogue but good plot

Wayne June is awesome. He alone is worth buying the audio book. Brant needs to cut down the canned discourse though.

Thrilling and Violent

Definitely a fast-moving and exciting story but it is a little too full of vulgarity and violence for my taste. The author does a great job of eliciting sympathy from the reader for the main character due to what he's gone through. The performance is pretty good as well but the music and sound effects actually detract from the narration.
