    About this audiobook

    Jason Bourne takes on a mission to rescue his only friend in the CIA, Martin Lindros, who disappeared in Africa while tracking shipments of yellowcake uranium. Once safely back in America, Lindros persuades Bourne to help track the money trail of terrorists buying the nuclear material in Odessa.

    But once there, Bourne is hampered by confusing flashbacks of unfamiliar places and events, and he wonders: is someone brainwashing him in order to throw him off the trail? Worse, is the man he saved in Africa really Martin Lindros? Now, Bourne is alone, gathering evidence while trying to stay one step ahead of the terrorists who won't let anyone stand in the way of destroying the United States.

    • 4/5
      Action packed tale of murder and suspense.
    • 4/5
      brilliant as the othr Bourne series ones..
      eric van lustbader carries on the legacy of jason bourne and robert ludlum..
    • 5/5
      I was relived to learn that this next addition to the Borne saga had no comparison to the previous book. A new author and a clean sweep. This book, I enjoyed.
    • 5/5
      Once again Eric Van Lustbadar has brought a tale of Jason Bourne, a trained CIA assassin, who has turned his back on the CIA for trying to kill him. His other identity, David Webb, is a professor at a local college. His double identity makes this book shine. One identity is a laidback, happy-go-lucky personality while the other is fierce and determined to reach his goal.A Chechen assassin named Khan is after Bourne, on an assignment to kill him. He takes his first shot through a window in an empty classroom at the college where David Webb teaches. When he shoots the bullet at Webb, the Jason Bourne identity kicks in. He dodges the bullet and moves into a crowd of people. This is when the identity of the merciless Jason Bourne takes over completely. He is now determined to find whoever tried to kill him. This journey takes him to his friend, Alexander Conklin, whom he finds dead, and he’s accused of killing him. He runs away from the oncoming police, leading him to a stream where his second run-in with Khan takes place. Khan appears to be an enemy who is determined to carry out his assignment, but then Bourne learns a secret that would change his life forever.I had a great time reading this book, tearing through every page. Jason Bourne’s double identity keeps the book interesting and blood-pumping. Eric Van Lustbadar is a true genius for creating such a widely known series. I have read every book before this and have seen all of the movies. I loved every second of the experience of reading this book. If I were to rate this book, I would give this 5 out of 5 stars. The dramatic chase scenes and the romantic moments give this book the perfect balance that truly shows what a great book this is. I would recommend to anyone who likes to take a challenge in the reading world to pick up this book. The reason why I say to take a challenge is that the vocabulary is very advanced in this book. But, don’t worry, the great story line makes up for most of that.  
    • 4/5
      Whilst not quite on a par with Robert Ludlum's original Bourne stories this is definitely good fun and worth a read. Bourne is being pursued on two fronts. On the one-hand by the CIA and the other by a mysterious assassin known only as Khan. Can he save the world and reveal the identity of the mystery man before being arrested or killed himself? Of course he can!! Whilst lacking orginality and also being about 100 pages to long I would certainly recommend it as an easy read to fans of the genre.
    • 2/5
      When you have a super-spy, regardless of whether or not he suffers from amnesia, I don't think the bad guy should be able to anticipate his every move. I almost didn't finish the book when Jason's enemy actually showed up in a very random place far enough ahead of him to lie in ambush. The story line was good, but I think the only thing that got me through the book was fond feeling for the first three.
    • 4/5
      Creator Dies; Jason Bourne Lives He’s back. Despite Robert Ludlum’s passing, his most famous character, Jason Bourne, has a life of his own.He is now a professor of Eastern Studies at Georgetown University. He has assumed his old name – new to readers – David Webb. He leads a quiet life. Until one day he finds himself the target of another agent. The action is furious. The twists are surprising. The events are often violent. The intrigue is not as convoluted as the original trilogy. It is not vintage Ludlum, but to those who savored the originals it is not a bad second.
    • 1/5
      Well, it isn't Ludlum, who is (was) able to write detail in a compelling way that enhances the story enormously. Detail in this book seemed at times to be rather gratuitous. That said, it was fun to read although I did skim the last 100 pages or so.
    • 3/5
      This is a difficult book to rate. First, it needs to be noted that The Bourne Identity, the book that gave rise to the series of which this is the fourth entry, is my second-favorite book of all time (following only Dune). Thus, I am forced to rate the book both as a sequel to The Bourne Identity (and The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum) as well as on a stand-alone basis. As a sequel to the Bourne novels, this book, unfortunately fails, primarily because the character of David Webb/Jason Bourne did not feel quite right. I recognize that he is getting older and has been out of the world of assassination for some time; however, he makes too many mistakes or odd decisions. More importantly, the intense suspense of the Ludlum's novels (especially the first two) is missing. I saw both of the big "twists" in the story long before Van Lustbader revealed the truth. So, I was disappointed. As a stand-alone novel, I suppose that the book fares a bit better, but, unfortunately, not by much. If you are an absolute fan of the Bourne books, then by all means give The Bourne Legacy a try; similarly, if you like Eric Van Lustbader's books (which I do, especially The Ninja and some of its sequels), then give it a read. Otherwise, there are better books in the genre with which to spend your time.
