The Lion

By: Nelson DeMille

Narrated by: Scott Brick

John Corey, former NYPD Homicide detective and special agent for the Anti-Terrorist Task Force, is back on the trail of Asad Khalil, the notorious Libyan terrorist known as 'The Lion'. Corey and his partner, agent Kate Mayfield, tracked Khalil across the US after his threats to wipe out the US in a horrific wave of terrorism. But after methodically eliminating his victims one by one, Khalil disappeared without a trace. Now, years later, Khalil has returned to America to take care of unfinished business. 'The Lion' is a killing machine on a mission of revenge, and John Corey will not stop until he rids the earth of this tyrant once and for all.

Scott Brick Drawl is driving me nuts

Would you try another book from Nelson DeMille and/or Scott Brick?

I listened to the Lions Game and the reading was really good. This books, Scott's slowed down his pace and started a looooooog drawl. Waiting, waiting waiting for him to finish senatances.

What other book might you compare The Lion to and why?

The Lions game

How could the performance have been better?

Speed up the read- stop the drawl

Could you see The Lion being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

Yes

Satisfying sequel

Any additional comments?

Rounds-off of the story started in the Lion's Game. This series of books are reasonably engaging for the type, but lack the depth of characters or beauty of writing to take them beyond the standards of a commercial thriller.

Loved it!

Kept me on the edge of my earphones!!! I enjoyed the actor who read it as well. Can we have some more of Nelson Demille please - Up Country, Plum Island, etc

The LIONS GAME Part 2

In some ways, even better than The Lions Gate.
Cant wait for the next John Corey novel.
Scott Brick's narration is excellent, in both books.

My first Nelson DeMille

This is my first listen to this great writer. Superb. Kept the interest up all the way.
