Diary of an Assassin

By: Victor Methos

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A PROFESSIONAL THAT'S LOST THE DESIRE TO KILL... Tired of a life of violence, hitman Isaac Rhett is ready to retire after one last assignment. But the assignment turns out to be a trap and pits him against the deadliest assassin in the world, Gustav Fabrice. A MADMAN WITH NO PURPOSE BUT TO DESTROY... Gustav is cunning, ferocious, and insane. Without the inhibitions a person would feel against extreme violence, Gustav is on a rampage with the death of Isaac Rhett as his only goal. A single police officer from Interpol is the only witness to the monster that's been let loose on society and attempts to track him down before Gustav carries out his mission. A DESPERATE FIGHT FOR SURVIVAL... Rhett's mark turns out to be a congresswoman with no known enemies. Rhett flees with her with Gustav on their heels. But Rhett knows you cannot escape a man like Gustav. At some point, they will have to fight. But there is only one way that Rhett knows to stop Gustav... you must let him kill you first.

Virtual Narration is horrible

The story is so close to the series I’ve just finished by Mark Dawson that it felt like a continuation of that series. The ending was a bit confusing, may have to replay it to figure it out.
BUT, virtual narration is not ready for prime time. There were all sorts of cadence issues, some pronunciation issues, and the French passages were abysmal. I will pass on any books in future that list AI as narrator.

Story gets lost w/virtual voice

I the story line was good. I will have to read the actual book. The virtual voice was so monotoned the story was hard to follow. You never knew who was speaking and there is zero inflection.

Decent story, did not like the digital audio

The story was decent, a typical victor methos story. However, the digital audio was distracting, and I did not like it. I did not like that. There was no feeling put behind the words. The story was pretty good though.

Robot narrator

Had to stop listening the narrator was so robotic I lost any interest. May have been a good book but I will never know

Horrible AI voice acting!!!

AI voices are the absolute worst! Did a producer even bother to listen to this before putting it out? The timing and pronunciation of words is unbelievable. The story was great but the AI performance is beyond terrible.
