About this listen

Lonely Heroes is an action-packed adventure which covers the incredible life of a CIA agent, and his Israeli counterpart. From thwarting Putin's plans to make billions from a harrowing deception: to working with Zera, Israel's top agent, to damaging the Iranian nuclear weapons program before it goes active. Zera, and Roger Taylor, the CIA's best, are ultimately enlisted by a powerful alien being into stopping a heinous plot to blind every living thing on Earth. Roger and Zera must travel into space to save the Earth, and other friendly aliens from extinction.

Lonely Heroes is the second in the Time Will Tell series. The style of writing for this book is much the same as in Time Will Tell. The story is told to you as opposed to being shown to you and you are once again in the position of, here is what happened, this is what was said, type of narration. There's no secrets or suspension or build up in tension for what you are going to find out, it's handed out to you ready to run with.

That being said, I much preferred the story that Lonely Hearts had to offer compared to Time Will Tell. We start to move more into alien territory and more intriguing plots. I still feel like there is a way to go with character and relationship development, as this is what I find most essential when reading books!

The narrator is different to the first book and I think I might have even preferred this one. It certainly felt a lot easier to listen to than the previous book, but that could just be because I was more used to what I was listening to. I flew through this read, it is fairly short and the action steadily continues throughout.

It might be worth noting as well, that the author advised me that each of the Time Will Tell books could be read as a standalone, as opposed to in the series. The series can also be read in a different order. I am going chronologically and so am marking them chronologically in these posts.

I listened to this on Audible at 1.6x speed.

I'm giving this one 2.5 stars, but rounding for the sake of GoodReads and this post! Stay tuned for my next review in the Till Will Tell series, Future Tense.
