Stephen England releases Embrace the Fire as Audiobook
Hello again, dear Audiobooks Fans! If you follow my posts here you know that I am a huge fan of thrillers and one of the best, less known, authors in that genre in my humble opinion is Stephen England. He writes military thrillers and has a unique writing style that immerses the reader or in our case, the listener, compleatly into the story.
Stephen has just released his third book in the Shadow Warriors Series, called Embrace the Fire in audiobook format this week end you can get it now from Audible. The audiobook is almost 24 hours in duration and it is Narrated by Colin Iago McCarthy, just like all the other novels and short stories in this series.
We learn more about the plot for Embrace the Fire from the Publisher’s Summary
“He who seeks vengeance must dig two graves: one for his enemy and one for himself.”
In the Middle East, refugees fleeing dictatorship and terrorism pour across the borders into Europe, destabilizing countries already in the throes of economic crisis. But not all who seek refuge share the same reasons for so doing…. In the UK, the nationalist far right gathers strength – fueled by a government unable or unwilling to protect its own. England is on the brink. All it will take to send it tumbling into the abyss…is a single push. And in the midst of it all, two men have arrived in London, dark harbingers of death to come. One of them is a terrorist, responsible for one of the most successful attacks against the West in the years since 9/11. The other, an assassin, come to take his life.
Fifteen years Harry Nichols spent as a CIA paramilitary operations officer. Fifteen long years of war, tracking America’s enemies across the world. Hunting them down – killing them. Before they could strike. Until the Christmas Eve attacks on Las Vegas forced him to resign from the agency. Attacks which killed hundreds of innocent Americans, claimed the life of the woman he had sworn to protect. The woman he loved.
Forced out into the cold, Nichols has found himself in the UK, operating without sanction, without law. A man without a country – come to London with a single purpose: kill the man responsible for the attacks in Vegas. Avenge her death. No matter what it takes. What lines must be crossed. What faiths must be betrayed. There are no rules, not any more. Only vengeance. His career with the CIA is over. His war…has only just begun.
Stephen England is the author of the bestselling Shadow Warriors thrillers, including Amazon’s #1 Bestselling Political Thriller, Pandora’s Grave, and its long-awaited sequels, Day of Reckoning and Embrace the Fire, forming a series hailed as “the perfect spy thrillers for our time–chaotic, cynical, with only a few good men keeping the barbarians from the gate.”
Drawing upon nearly a decade of research into the nature of Islam, the Middle East, espionage and counterterrorism operations, England’s work has drawn praise for breathing new life into the genre with the hard-edged, unsparing realism of his portrayal of the war on terror, the people who wage it, and the moral and psychological costs exacted of those who take the war to the enemy where he lives.
“Soldiers without uniforms. Fighting a war without end. Shadow warriors. . .”
I started listening to Embrace the Fire, I love it and I’ll post a review in the upcoming weeks, as I have a few other projects that I need to finish first.
