Ok story let down by awful narration
The story is interesting but a bit disjointed. As the plot jumps over a number of years and events that don’t appear to connect, feeling like a collection of vignettes, and whilst they eventually do link together it doesn’t make sense as there is no hint up to the point where we need to know this plot point to drive the story forward. My other bugbear is that we spend two thirds of the book with the main character, Rudi, only to then spend the rest of the story flitting between different characters.
I was listening on my commute and reading at home. I preferred reading as the narration was awful almost to the point of wanting to give it up. As we spend most of the time going across Europe the decision to mostly stick to the narrator’s North American accent was not a bad move except for the inexplicable need to read it in a Bob Newhart stand up style - whilst there is humour in the book it’s relevant but the tone of the story is serious and it doesn’t fit with the story I also found that in the narrator’s three voice character limit he’d throw in an accent and make a mess of it - his Scottish female voice isn’t Scottish, more like very poor Irish if you’re feeling generous.
Overall it’s a shame as I was looking forward to this book but I’m in no rush to read book two.

The start of a brilliant series
Firstly I am a big Fractured Europe fan and have read all of the novels in the series. If you like Cold War thrillers and intelligent thought provoking Science Fiction you are going to love the Europe stories. Complex satisfying plots and immaculately crafted characters set in a future just a step away with more than a hint of Le Carre’ and the brilliant early Leigh Deighton spy novels Dave Hutchinson takes you on an engaging and cultured trip. Graham Rowat captures the mood of the book and the characters well. You will get hooked.

Bizarre
It all comes together in the end but jumps about and is a confusing tale. The real problem for me was the narrator though, just has a dismissive tone. Makes it sound like he didn’t want to do it

Nothing
Not for me. The whole plot seemed disjointed. Difficult to follow. Needless to say I won’t be listening to the rest of the series.
