Armored by Mark Greaney is an Audible Original, only (currently) available in the audiobook format. It is a fast-paced, action-packed, full-cast recording of a great story!
It stars a new Greaney character called Josh Duffy, or “Duff”, to his teammates. He is down on his luck, after being forced to retire from the armed services after losing a leg in action. With bill collectors knocking at his door, Duff takes a job with “Armored Saints”, the only civilian contractor that will hire him. It is one of the more reviled companies, but he needs the money. This mission promises big money for only a few weeks work. But as Duff heads to Mexico for his mission, he realizes it is much more than he bargained for.
As I mentioned earlier, this is a full-cast recording, meaning that each performer narrates for only one, or possibly two characters in total. In the majority of audiobooks, one, or occasionally two narrators, will do the entire book, and all of the characters involved. It makes Armored feel more like a radio drama than just another reading of a book.
The readers really bring this book to life, and Greaney is a master at writing stories that seem to come to life all on their own. Plus, this recording features the narration of Jay Snyder, who is the narrator of Greaney’s Court Gentry series. He is fantastic, and it was a fun addition. This book is a fun adventure that would be great for readers who want to dip their toes into the audiobook world. I can’t recommend it enough!
