About this listen

Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Spook's: Dark Assassin by Joseph Delaney, narrated by Gabrielle Glaister, Thomas Judd, Sean Barrett and Olivia Mace.

The third chilling instalment in the new Spook's legend....

An assassin lurks in the darkness between earth and oblivion - but who are they, and what is their mission?

The people of the County live in fear of the beasts bent on bringing the war to their home. How can they possibly hope to survive when their fearsome enemies are fortified with the power of a god?

Could the creature that moves in the darkness be the saviour the County seeks?

As with all the Spook's books I really enjoyed this latest installment of the journeys and Adventures of Tom Ward. These books are not just for children but appeal to adults as well.

Brilliant

After reading all of the other books in the Spooks series, I thought I would download this one and try an audiobook.

The story is very entertaining and written in the typical Spooks books style. Not the best of the many books in the Spooks series, but still very enjoyable, with the odd twist here and there and a big surprise at the end that left me looking forward to the next story.

Thoroughly enjoyable and well worth a read, or listen.

Entertaining with a twist at the end.....

I thoroughly enjoyed the Spooks Apprentice series and this shorter Spooks series. I was hooked from the first book. I wish that there were more books following Tom Ward. I was gutted when characters died. I think it will be a long time before I find another series as good as this. 11/10

Brilliant Series

I love the books in general but this one seemed as if it was a little flat. It never really got out of 2nd gear. I found myself listening to sentences that seemed half finished. I hope I was in the minority but I just couldn't get into this one.

Just a little flat
