About this listen

Mitch Rapp faces an Iranian foe bent on destabilizing the Middle East in the newest thriller from Vince Flynn’s #1 New York Times bestselling series that answers the question Vince Flynn fans have been asking for thirteen years: what role did Mitch Rapp play in the operation to Capture or Kill Osama bin Laden?

April 2011: On a remote mountaintop overlooking the remains of the Iranian nuclear weapons program, Azad Ashani witnesses a Quds Force demonstration of a capability meant to upend America’s war in the Middle East. Ashani, director of the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence and Security and Irene Kennedy’s former back channel to the Iranian government, recognizes the demonstration’s true significance, and the nation-ending conflict it will provoke. Alone, Ashani stands no chance of preventing this rush to madness.

But with the help of one man, he just might.

In Washington, DC, CIA director Irene Kennedy briefs the president that the operational window to kill or capture Osama bin Laden at his recently discovered compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan is rapidly closing. But before he’ll authorize a commando raid on Pakistani soil, the president demands irrefutable proof of bin Laden’s presence.

Proof he trusts just one man to provide.

Preventing a looming war in the Middle East while delivering justice for the nearly 3,000 Americans killed on 9/11 would be a big ask for anyone.

Mitch Rapp isn’t just anyone.

Love Mitch Rapp, not the narrator

It's been a winning combination, Mitch Rapp and George Guidall. I don't have a problem with the new author, Don Bentley, but I do with the new narrator. It is actually tiring listening to the voices all sounding the same. I now fully appreciate the special marriage of writer and narrator. I don't want to see the series end, but it needs a return to Guidall or another actor. I probably would have given the overall and story rating a 5, but I had trouble staying focused with the reading.

The only BAD Mitch Rapp book so far

This book has been a great disappointment. I have been a Mitch Rapp fan from the beginning and have read/listened to every book in the series...until now. Capture or Kill is absolutely horrible. Slow, boring, and a waste of time. Time to find another author or end the series.

Really need Guidall to come back

Incredible story. Excited for what’s to come! I was a little hesitant that this would feel too much like a “flashback” but it fits perfectly within the timeline of past events. Really missed George Guidall. I can only shed opinion based on Mitch Rapp series for this current narrator. I haven’t listened to any other works. The ability to give these characters the distinguishable voices that Guidall has given through all of these books is second to none. This current book greatly missed that attribute.

Not one to remember

I love this series. However, the storyline is a hit and miss lately. I’ll continue to purchase every adventure of Mitch Rapp because of the earlier books. However, this book is forgettable.

Fun going back in time!

I really enjoyed going back to the old days. Characters making cameos that can't any more was fun. It'll be interesting to see with Mitch getting older, if they do more of this. It's a great way to keep the books coming as long as they don't start retconning the great lore of the series.

The story itself was excellent. Tying the story into real life events was a nice touch. Knowing that people will live because of the next books didn't take away from it being a thriller.

First off, I loved and got used to George Guidall. The only gripe I have about the narrator is that all the voices were really similar. He has a great voice and inflection. I hope George Guidall comes back, but if not, we get more variety in the voices next time.

Mike Nash back from the dead?

Mike Nash died at his own hand in Oath of Loyalty…this disruption in the storyline is not on par with this series. In fact in the last Mitch Rapp book Code Red it hints at it when it talks of Maggie Nash and her dislike/blame for her husband’s death even though Rapp let the story go as Mike was hero and died in service to his country.

well done first effort. much better than before

appreciate that the author took the effort to show us subtly that he knew the canon and characters by describing past events etc. appreciate that he respected that canon and didnt invent stuff that spit on flynn or his characters like the past blasphemous obscenity we had to deal with. it made me nervous that this author said his favorite book for the previous author was the very book that killed off mike nash. so hope this author doesnt continue that nonsense. he writes well and (spoiler alert) it was nice to see mike back and treated with the respect (more or less) that he deserves. it was nice to see mitch and scotts involvement in the victory over an arch terrorist! i hope he continues in this vein and restores my reason for keeping audible. i wasnt going to buy anymore mitch rapp novels if mills continued writing and hadnt bought them but loaned them out at the library. i bought this title hoping this author would do better. he has - please dont betray that hope.

Great book

I really enjoyed this book. It was very well done. Well written. Makes me want to start the whole series over and put this one in the correct slot and do it all over again.

This is a flash back book. It goes back to 2008.

Like many others I had thought a train someone was dead. I was dismayed and thought the new writer didn’t read. But it turns out he just went back in time. It took a tale while to realize. Rapp doesn’t even know Claudia yet and Hurley was ill alive.

What an amazing premiere for Mr. Bentley

I have been a Mitch Rapp fan since the very beginning. Not only that, but Mitch is in my top 5 of favorite MMC's....ever. For someone who reads as much as I do - that is kind of a big deal. I was here during the transition to Kyle Mills (and I think he did a phenomenal job) and here now, for the next phase with Mr. Bentley. I will admit to being just a little bit worried - only because I have not read anything by Mr. Bentley in the past. Thankfully, that is no longer a worry.

This was a bit of a different storyline, as we are taken back in time to 2011 and the search for Osama Bin Laden. When I think about it, that was a brilliant strategy because it gave the new author the chance to go back in time to situations that we already knew about, which meant that he could shift his focus to making sure the character of Rapp stayed consistent.

That's not to say that the storyline was lacking in any way....because it wasn't. The storyline was filled with action and drama and kept my interest from beginning to end. What I did feel, though, was that he brought back the Mitch Rapp of old. The man who others feared; the Angel of Death. And I will admit that it was very nice to see.

I also think that Mr. Bentley's past real life experience came through in the storyline through the use of very specific details that were peppered throughout the story. Regardless, it was nice to go back in time and get to see some of our favorite characters who are not still there in the current timeline.

So, this was a definite winner. I enjoyed the heck out of this and unfortunately, it was over way too quickly. Now, I guess the wait begins for book 24.
