Summary
National Book Awards 2014: Crime/Thriller Book of the Year
Can you commit the perfect crime?
Pilgrim is the code name for a man who doesn't exist. The adopted son of a wealthy American family, he once headed up a secret espionage unit for US intelligence. Before he disappeared into anonymous retirement, he wrote the definitive book on forensic criminal investigation. But that book will come back to haunt him. It will help NYPD detective Ben Bradley track him down. And it will take him to a run-down New York hotel room where the body of a woman is found facedown in a bath of acid, her features erased, her teeth missing, her fingerprints gone. It is a textbook murder - and Pilgrim wrote the book.
What begins as an unusual and challenging investigation will become a terrifying race against time to save America from oblivion. Pilgrim will have to make a journey from a public beheading in Mecca to a deserted ruin on the Turkish coast via a Nazi death camp in Alsace and the barren wilderness of the Hindu Kush in search of the faceless man who would commit an appalling act of mass murder in the name of his god.
This is now the entire audiobook, not in two parts.

Bit of a con splitting it into two books...
If you could sum up I Am Pilgrim, Volume 1 in three words, what would they be?
Far-fetched, fast-paced and light reading...
Any additional comments?
I thought it was OK as a story goes. It's along the lines of many well worn espionage thrillers and reminded me of a series of 24, all style and no real substance. It's good entertainment and I enjoyed it. I thought it was well read and it's not too heavy going (to say the least). Would I read another one if the main character was revised? Maybe, but ultimately, it's the kind of book you read and forget about.

Frustratingly long winded
Started well but the excessive detail became boring and it felt like the author was showboating.

A Little Disconcerted!
Thought I'd found my pinnacle audio book in the excellent 'Grey Man' series.
But...... This is very very Good!

Excellent but...
can male narrators please stop doing falsetto voices for female characters?! It is sooooo irritating and it detracts from the rest of the narration and the story.
Otherwise, excellent!

Nothing but excellence
I flew through this book, the narrative structure fantastically built my interest in the characters and the story and all the clever detail made it an excellent listen without revealing too much.
Well written, well delivered and a rewarding ending made this one of my favourites in years.

Couldn't put it down!
This book was an excellent read from start to finish. The story line comes from many angles but meets well at end.
