Where does Timebomb rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Seymour set the bar high from his first book. Whilst not an easy read / listen, they are nonetheless worth the effort

Who was your favorite character and why?

Carrick - the undercover police officer. A good strong character with human failings

Have you listened to any of Mike Grady’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Not previously listened

Seymour at his usual standard

Having read a few of his works, I like his style but this was a dis-appointment. Overall it felt like a relatively simple story drawn out over an extended period and would probably be better as an abridged version.

Not his best effort

I gave been a longtime fan of Gerald Seymour, but he is now doing happy endings which reduces the realism of his tales.

That said, this book was still very enjoyable.

Seymour is almost at his best, but .....

At last an unabridged Gerald Seymour on Audible!

This is an excellent recording with great narration and definitely worth a listen.

This book is very good, but by far not Gerald Seymour?s best. Come on Audible lets see more unabridged recording of this mans work, as he has written some fantastic works, many are timeless and should be available on this service.

I found this book to be a very nice mix of history, humour and irony. The relationship between the two russian characters is both believable and endearing. Once I had listened to the first chapter I was hooked and coundn't switch it off.

A very entetaining tale.
