About this listen

The most dangerous man in the world is back.

David Morrell's First Blood introduced Rambo, who joined the ranks of Sherlock Holmes, Tarzan, James Bond, and Harry Potter as an international thriller icon. In this further adventure, Rambo is in exile far from home in Thailand, vowing to renounce violence and war. When his country calls him once again, he refuses to accept. But then he learns that his former commanding officer, Colonel Trautman, the only man he trusts, has been captured by the Soviets on the Afghan border during a mission that Rambo rejected. For Rambo, it's a call to arms - and a mission back into hell. This novelization and the film have many differences. Listen to the story that the film could have had.

"David Morrell is, to me, the finest thriller writer living today, bar none."
--Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The Columbus Affair

"Morrell, an absolute master of the thriller, plays by his own rules and leaves you dazzled."
--Dean Koontz, New York Times bestselling author of 77 Shadow Street

"The father of the modern action novel."
--Vince Flynn, New York Times bestselling author of Kill Shot

I'm not sure it lived up to its introduction of adding depth to the character but it's a quick easy listen. Everything you like from the movie is here and you just inagine Stallone throughout. Not sure the narrator is the best for the job as he doesn't bring that gritiness to the character.

I remember being disappointed by the film, and hoped that the novelisation, which in the authors own words was quite different, might have been better. But it wasn’t. The real issue here is the story itself. It’s pretty poor with stereotypes characters, a predictable story, which I felt was at times poorly written.
The good news is the narrator does a decent job with the mediocre material.
Good for die hard Rambo fans, but I was glad when it finally finished.
