In #1 New York Times bestselling author Lee Goldberg’s action-packed sequel to The Washington Post bestseller True Fiction, a hapless writer is pitted against an enemy nation mounting a treacherous plot lifted from one of his thrillers.

Everybody loves Ian Ludlow’s action novels—especially the CIA—because the spies know something the public doesn’t: his fictional plots have a frightening tendency to come true. Ian is in Hong Kong with his resourceful assistant Margo French to research his wildest story yet—a deadly global conspiracy by Chinese intelligence to topple the United States.

What Ian doesn’t know is that his horrifying scenario is happening and that the Chinese mistakenly believe he’s an undercover superspy assigned to foil their scheme. Now Ian is trapped in his own terrifying thriller, on the run from assassins, and racing against time to prevent an epic disaster. He’s written himself into a corner that could cost his life...and his country.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“The pleasure here is watching Goldberg mock the thriller form while creating a first-rate one, boiling with chases, fights, sweaty-palm tension, snappy dialogue, and glamorous, exotic locations—this time, post-Maugham Hong Kong and its stunning outdoor escalators. It’s really a sophisticated exercise in metafiction: commenting on narrative while creating it.” (Booklist)

“Killer Thriller grabs you from page one with brilliant wit, sharply honed suspense, and a huge helping of pure originality.” (Jeffery Deaver, New York Times best-selling author)

The appealing characters Goldberg draws and the believable current national and international crisis situations he creates are waaay beYOND engaging and hilARious! His send-up of the VP Pence/Penny troglodyte is PRICELESS! And Ian’s partnership w/Margo!!! My daughter and I laughed till we cried. We hope to follow the Adorably HILARIOUS pair through Many more adventures.

Adam Verner’s voice is resonant w/a lovely timbre,
and his Ronnie voice in the last novel as well as his Damon-the-actor voice in this one are excellent. That said, in future efforts, please prevail upon him either to master accents or to read all characters w/his natural American English accent. His attempts at Turkish, Australian, British, French, and Chinese accents were unfortunately affected, mannered, and simply embarrassing. Also, it should not be too much to ask that he pronounce the name of the French city, Marseilles correctly.

Still, we luuove Goldberg’s sendup of all things cretinous in our current social and political culture sooo much that we definitely will listen to his first two Ian/Margo adventures again and look forward to collecting all future adventures. Thank you for a great treat!

Scenes with heat... Light

The back story... The H&h have gone to China for the filming of his next action novel. He is working on a story in which the Chinese are fitting surveillance into all electronics leaving China in a bid to gain control over the US. The Chinese Government snooped his laptop, saw the story and determined that he was a spy and the chase is on

Gist: Still no romance for the H as the H is a out and proud lesbian and she has a much better game than the H. She does have some fun in this story. The h has a much bigger role and pulls the H through several situations.

The drama explosion... The MCs have to go on a mission to stop an assassination.
Did it feel Real, OK or contrived? Ok
Was it OTT? Yes, in a fun way
Separation involved? No
Was it resolved properly or rushed? Mostly properly

Final Notes... The only drawback for me is that it looks like the author is getting a bit political. I am not a fan of the President during the time this story was being written but I like fiction for the escape from reality it provides.

Good Story

I listened to the audio version of both book one and two of Lee Goldberg’s Killer series. They are so entertaining that I wanted to listen to them in one sitting (or gardening session.) At first I thought the narrator had an odd voice, but I soon adjusted and decided that his voice was just right. He was able to convey the humor that was frequently needed. Now, on to book 3.

Love this book!

pretty good!

This was a fast and easy read/listen that doesn't really require too much mental attention but it is entertaining.

It is the second book in a series about writer Ian Ludlow and this time he gets himself in trouble because he writes a thriller detailing Chinese espionage that somehow hits a little too close to the mark and gains the attention of the MSS.

I listened to this completely on audio and it was one of those that was easy to put down and pick up if you had to stop and do other things without really losing too much of the story.

Fun and easy read/listen

Lee Goldberg delivers as always with a fast paced, action packed tale, including fun characters, interesting setting and witty dialogue. The narration was dreadful. Adam Verner's style, with oddly drawn out cadence and weird inflection that made every sentence sound like a question was utterly inappropriate for this type of novel. Also, who doesn't know how to pronounce Marseilles? (Maybe he was confusing it with Versailles? I honestly thought he said Versailles the first time, although it made zero sense.)
I was very disappointed to see that the next book in this series is also narrated by Adam Verner. I will not be listening to it.
Tip: Cranking the speed to 1.2 helps.

It's Mar-SAY, not Mar-SIGH!!!

Narrator reads with a continual hi @ low cadence that is very distracting! I found myself making fun of continuous highs at the wrong times!

Narrator distracting

The skills of the author and narrator bring this book and series to life. I look forward to reading and listening to anything by Lee Goldberg. The plot, twists, and humor are perfectly executed:)

Another great series

The narrator ends about 89 % of his characters' statements with an upward infection and drawn out intonation. it's a really annoying. Verbal twirk.

I thought the plot and story telling was really quite good. The mix between the author's story and Ian's stories is an effective gimmick.

Good plot, not quite so good narration
