About this listen

Going Back is the electrifying third novel in Neil Lancaster’s Tom Novak series, described by Tony Parsons as making “Jason Bourne look like a vegan pilates teacher”.

Novak is back. Answering a call from his old friend and comrade-in-arms Mike Brogan, Tom Novak finds himself back in the one place he does not want to be, the home of his childhood nightmares: Sarajevo.

Undercover and thrust into the centre of a Black Op, Tom and his team are double-crossed and forced to rely on their wits as a deadly new threat emerges. Forced into a race against time to stop a terrifyingly effective new weapon, can Tom fight against the odds once more to save not just those he loves, but the world as we know it?

Critic reviews

"If you take all the best parts of 24, Line Of Duty, and Mission Impossible, and put them in one book, then you would have something very much like Going Back. An incredible, exciting read." (Cass Green)

Enjoyable listen. Good narration, no gratuitous violence compared to other authors of this genre.

Fantastic

another great adventure with DS Novak, Pet, Mike and Buster. Scenario is all too frighteningly possible in today's weird world

A cliff hanger

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

A fun story, full of action. Perhaps too happy an ending.

Some voice effects were used which makes some of the narration a bit hard to hear.

The narrator pronounce “Koch” in Heckler & Koch a bit peculiarly towards the end, with an s-sound, though I might have heard the correct English version at the beginning. He did seem to pronounce Loch with a proper Scottish ch-sound (not lock), so that was nice.

Apart from these two points I enjoyed listening

This triology off books would make a perfect movie series.
So many good indivials involved and Tom Novac great front man

brilliant

I enjoyed it all so much so that I have lost a lot of sleep listening to chapter after chapter. I hope there are more reads equally as exciting as this to follow.

A real thriller!

Very good, enjoy it similar to the spider Shepherd books. Enjoyed it a lot great story.

Very good story, unbelievable

This is the third book in this series and is as fresh and thrilling as both of its predecessors. The plot is imaginative yet plausible and the book has the technical accuracy that only writers who have experience in the field can bring to the page.
The narrator does a superb job creating a range of different authentic sounding voices for the characters and his reading flows very well.
All in all a highly recommended read and I’m looking forward to the next instalment already.

Another excellent book in the Tom Novac series
