About this listen
Venezuela's overcrowded prison system is hell on earth. Murders, corruption, and gang wars are nothing out of the ordinary. On a humid summer's day in the state of Vargas, a new prisoner arrives at "El Infierno", the country's most notorious gulag. Newcomers are subject to savage beatings. They're treated as slaves by the general prison population.
But not this time....
Because the fresh arrival is ex-US black ops mercenary Jason King, locked up without a trial, determined to work out who falsely charged him with murder - and why. He wonders which inmate will provoke him first and unleash who he used to be....

Story
America is under attack. Thousands lie dead after simultaneous strikes across the country. The day will come to be known as Bloody Monday. Jason Trapp, codename ‘Hangman’, was a covert operative whose feats became the stuff of legend. He was the tip of the spear—the man his country unleashed when all hope was lost. Six months ago, someone sold him out. The Agency listed him as killed in action. He lost everything—and everyone—he held dear. But Trapp’s not that easy to kill.

Surprisingly Good
I was really prepared to dislike this book. I only downloaded it because I like to read a series in order. When King got thrown in prison I honestly thought it was going to be one of those books where the protagonist is continually getting beat half to death and is struggling to survive, getting beat down every time he tries to get ahead. I should have known better. Not with this character. Good plot, lots of interesting twists. Well worth a listen. The whole series is.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Jason gives me FlashJacks
Do you remember when you loved reading Jack Reacher books? You know, waaaaaaaay back, before Lee Child started writing every book as though Hollywood would drool all over each book spine and beg him to write a screenplay, so to save time and effort, Child just started writing screenplays and calling them Jack Reacher novels?
Yeah, that was when Reacher was a legit badass, owned his messed up nature and did not get wrapped around the emotional axel when the “lizard part” of his brain activated resulting in casualties.
So, the reason I bring this up is because Jason King has the Old Reacher vibe, and >I Like It>.
Specifically, King is reluctant to wield his physical power and expertise on others but does it anyway in strategic ways and with malice. King gives bad actors a chance to reconsider their evil ways and do the right thing before he opens a mostly non-lethal, yet highly painful and for sure disfiguring can of Whoopass. King has old buddies from his career he would rather not discuss and makes friends as he moves through all the bad luck and trouble, holds everyone at arms distance, because he actively wrestles with the viciousness of his true nature and a seriously black, untidy past.
What makes the events that unfold all the more riveting is the writing style the author uses; gritty, descriptive, and with sufficient variety in word choice and scene composition to keep a listener engaged, thinking, and satisfied. Thankfully no overt advertising of brands or frivolous preference for a certain knife, gun, coffee, shoe, etc. (authors who do this, please stop, it’s annoying AF)
Last, the performance is spectacular. Masterful accents, nuance that carries a big bundle of background, the degree of variation in pace and tone to carry one forward with intent, and omits the “said Jason”, “said Rico”, that is exactly unnecessary when a vocal actor has the chops to distinguish each character with rich distinction using only auditory queues. And, all that without being over-the-top-theatrical. Thanks for that.
Suffice to say I have a new favorite basass lead character, it’s Jason King. Bing listening the whole series, and Save As Favorite for future dry spells in the Audible plus membership assortment of thrillers.
Fingers crossed the author remains true to the character and only adds to complexity and depth over the course of the series. I’m not at all sure I can take another complete character implosion, as is the case with Reacher.

Just one thing after another
Never does the book slow down. Interesting and unusual story line. First book we have listened to by this author. Looking to get the next one.

Another jack reacher wannabe
It seems to be the only story line out there: retired military special forces goes around the world getting into trouble and miraculously always saving the day. But you will like king I have to admit because the author does not waste time explaining the military stuff and goes straight into the story. I am on book three. He is worth reading.

Good, Bad Guy
I have listened to the other Jason King books. This was just as good. I’m happy that it ended with a positive outcome.

Excellent listen..
This was a good story, about our hero, Jason King, who was dumped into a prison for life in Venezuela for pissing a really bad guy off. But, really, it was a terrible name for a book since Jason only spent 2 days there before he escaped with his friend Raul. And then they decided to go after the guy who put them in there, Rico and his band of drug dealers.
No romance and the F-bomb was used 64 times.
As for the narration: Roger Wayne did an excellent job.

Sequel is better then the first...
This is book two in the Jason King series. In this book King is in Venezuela following an ordeal in Australia involving his black ops handler. He has plenty of money and lots of time to do what ever he wants. He's staying in a luxury hotel and trying to learn to relax. Following a work out in the hotel gym the police arrive m, he's arrested and with no trial put into one of the worst prisons in Venezuela for life. No one has ever escaped.
In this book a little more background is given on the protagonist. He is also much less Reacher-ish. In this book he is a little more of a bad a**, and the reader is reminded of this a few times during the book when someone would say to him that he doesn't know who he's dealing with and he'll tell them or someone else that they don't know who they're dealing with. He also alludes to more than one other prisoner that he was more than just DELTA even though he knows he shouldn't. There is a very twisted reason why he was put in prison and an even more twisted antagonist or two or three!
Anyway this is a very good, fast paced, action packed thriller. So far only two books are on Audible out of seven in the series. I am hoping the rest make it onto audio as I would like to listen to them and see how this character progresses as well as the author's writing style.
Roger Wayne does a very good job narrating.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

It is all about the plot, action, and suspense!
Imprisoned is Book 2 in the Jason King series. By all means read the publlisher's summary before purchasing this audio novel. Author Matt Rogers again avoids the tendency of extreme action thrillers sacrificing the plot to increase the amount of action. The plot of Imprisoned is rock solid even as protagonist performs super-human feats. Reading or listening to fiction of necessity requires the ability to suspend disbelief concerning events so long as the plot is solid. Narration is superb.

A little macho but good
The main character does some other worldly things and you can tell the author is a fan of 80’s action movies lol. Overall not bad just a little over the top.
