About this listen

Patrick Robinson burst on the scene with his gripping naval thriller, The New York Times best-selling Nimitz Class, then did it again with Kilo Class. His explosive HMS Unseen portrays the world in crisis as a dangerous terrorist pits nation against nation to promote his own chilling agenda.

While on a training mission, the British submarine HMS Unseen mysteriously disappears. A year later three planes are shot from the sky - one of them carrying the Vice President of the United States. As wily US Security Advisor Arnold Morgan scrambles to prevent international turmoil, he suspects the lost sub has been modified to carry antiaircraft weapons. Morgan knows only one person who could mastermind this scheme - an Iraqi terrorist believed to be dead.

Acclaimed on both sides of the Atlantic, Patrick Robinson blows listeners out of the water with his adrenaline-charged tales. Veteran narrator George Guidall will keep you gasping for breath as the plot races from the shocking opening to the stunning finish.

It helps when you have a former CO of a SSN and the FOSM to keep you straight. The rest of the story felt padded in too may places, almost like he was trying to emulate Fredrick Forsyth in his detail descriptions but didn’t know when to stop.
The narrator was pretty poor, particularly when it came to British pronunciation. There were too many words spoken in an English or Scots accent using American pronunciation. The most egregious was ‘submariner’ - made me cringe

Technically sound on submarine operations

I was looking forward to this book. However I found that too much narrative was given over to local area geography. It was rather like a ‘tour guide ‘. The action was good and the knowledge of submarines was great. Main characters stacked up but I was disappointed that the narrator made the soldier from the East End if London sound Scottish and the main female character, Laura, speak like Mrs Doubtfire
Still enjoyable overall

A little let down
