About this listen

Don't go hunting a deadly prey.

When Blaze stops at an isolated gas station in the forests of Kentucky's Appalachians, he stumbles onto something sinister. Dangerous men with deadly intentions are stalking a strange group – two cops, a fugitive, and a lawyer. An ambush is underway; an execution is about to go down. Blaze isn’t one to look the other way. But before he knows it, he has a pack of mercenaries after him. From the Appalachians to the heart of Washington, DC, it becomes a relentless game of cat and mouse. But what the hunters don't realize is, they’ve taken on more than they can handle.

When it comes to deadly sport, Blaze is a master of the game – he’s no easy prey.

Following the success of Blaze Returns and Lethal Force, Bill Runner is back with the third novel in the Axel Blaze thriller series. The fast-paced, brutal action in the series is attracting fans of thriller novels worldwide.

Another cracking listen in this series. The one man army Alex Blaze is trying to be a tourist but when he comes up against a situation at a Gas Station where Police officers are being attacked his natural instincts to help come to a fore. Kyle Snyder's narration is once again great and he really brings the story to life. Highly recommended listen.
I was kindly given a copy of the book by the narrator and leave this honest review. *****

Brilliant narration from Kyle Snyder, he brings out the action, suspense and pace. Perfect

Ex-military and former Marshall Axel Blaze is on vacation and is just looking to fill up his truck but is stopped by three men in the middle of the road. His gut instinct told him an ambush was set up at the gas station.
A police car is being shot and its passenger Biggs is a tech who hacked into the Dark Hawks database retrieving damaging documents. With the Dark Hawks sights set on him he's a dead man.
Blaze goes through bad guys like it’s no one’s business. I love the idea of Blaze as a righteous hero who won’t stand by and watch when bad guys go about their evil ways. We have FBI, Marshals, mercenaries and the Russian mafia making an appearance.

Action. suspense and pace. Perfect

I’ve enjoyed all the books in the series but this was my favourite. Loved how the characters worked together, the tension and the action, as always, was non stop. Well done, Runner. Waiting for the next one.

Axel gets them again!
