About this listen

 The Matarese Circle are the Corsican Brotherhood. Terrifying killers, their power could plunge the world into chaos and destruction within two years.
Only two rival spies - and one mysterious woman - can stop them. Brandon Scofield, CIA, and the West's most professional assassin, and Vasili Taleniekov, former KGB, now wanted by the Politburo. They share a genius for espionage - and a life of terror and explosive violence.

Sworn enemies, Scofield and Taleniekov have vowed to terminate each other, but now they must become allies. Because only they possess the brutal skills and ice-cold nerves vital to destroy an international circle of killers: the Matarese...

The story of Brandon Scofield and Vasily Taleniekov is amazing. I read it when I was younger and had since lost the book. Wanting to re-read it, I figured I'd give the audiobook a try. The narration is dated and the recording quality is sub-par, especially by new audiobook standards.

Unless you already love the story, I suggest skipping this audiobook and picking up the physical book instead. You'll enjoy it far more.

Great Story wasted by an aged recording
