This is an ordinary book. It becomes more ordinary when we compare it to The Day of the Jackal or The Odessa File. I felt the research on Afghanistan was incomplete. The story had rings of newspaper clipping based research to it. I do not think Mr. Frosyth is comfortable with history and characters from that part of the world. The plot is surprisingly mediocre. The characters are shallow.
He should stick to writing books set in Europe and plots from that part of the world or use his African experience which would be terribly outdated by now to come up with a story from that part.
Do not bother with this….I do not want you to form a bad opinion about this author. His next book will be better.

Ordinary

Steven Crossley’s narration is excellent.

While Forsyth’s is not his best work, the book delivers a relatable account why we are currently facing the time bomb that is Afghanistan under Taliban rule.

What I found annoying was when reading the physical book while listening to Steven Crossley narrate. Why do chapters breaks in the Audible version not correlate to the actual book? It made locating the same sentence/ page in one version difficult to finding the same point in the other version. Frustrating!!

Good read but confusing when simultaneously reading and listening the book.

An intricately woven story that moves from the Tora Bora mountains, around the world’s oceans, from one country to the next to achieve a well planned but deadly act. One man & a mammoth effort to find & destroy, is the only thing that stand between success or failure. A very entertaining story.

Intricate & intriguing

If you could sum up The Afghan in three words, what would they be?

Totally believable account.

What other book might you compare The Afghan to and why?

The Fist of God. Because The Afghan is a follow on from it.

Have you listened to any of Steven Crossley’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Brilliant.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Not really, except, I could not stop listening to it. I have read the book three times already.

Any additional comments?

I have read every one of Frederick Forsyth books at least three times each, and I still enjoy them immensely. What a brilliant entertainer. Thank you very much.

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

As a lover of these types of stories, I have found his book not just an entertaining story but also a very useful insight into some of the political background which has caused many of today's problems. This book ranks in my personal top 10 books ever.

Any additional comments?

Very good book. Highly recommended.

Frederick Forsyth at his best.
