The Nowhere Man - Gregg Hurwitz

The Nowhere Man (Orphan X #2) – Gregg Hurwitz

He was once called Orphan X.

As a boy, Evan Smoak was taken from a children’s home, raised and trained as part of a secret government initiative buried so deep that virtually no one knows it exists. But he broke with the programme, choosing instead to vanish off grid and use his formidable skill set to help those unable to protect themselves.

One day, though, Evan’s luck ran out . . .

Ambushed, drugged, and spirited away, Evan wakes up in a locked room with no idea where he is or who has captured him. As he tries to piece together what’s happened, testing his gilded prison and its highly trained guards for weaknesses, he receives a desperate call for help.

With time running out, he will need to out-think, out-manoeuvre, and out-fight an opponent the likes of whom he’s never encountered to have any chance of escape. He’s got to save himself to protect those whose lives depend on him. Or die trying . . .

My Review of The Nowhere Man

OH MAN I LOVE THIS SERIES!! Only 2 into it but it is fast becoming one of my favourites! Absolutely fantastic! Do yourself a favour and read them!

Evan is a former elusive member of the government run “Orphan” program and an elite killer. He leaves the program following the death of his mentor and becomes the Nowhere Man, helping people who need it most. But this time he becomes the one who needs the help when he finds himself prisoner of a psychopath.

WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW I LOVED THIS BOOK! Look yes I know it was corny and unbelievable a lot of the time, but if you come into a book like this expecting believability you are going to be disappointed. It was non-stop action, blood, guts, violence, gore, and surprisingly a touch of emotion and grit. AND I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!

The Nowhere Man would be ok as a stand-alone, but it will be much better if you read the first one, Orphan X beforehand – Not only is that an amazing book also, but you will get a feel for the character and have a much better understanding of what is going on.

Did I enjoy the audio version?

YES! So awesome! I said the same thing about Orphan X, but it is like an action movie for your ears. I had trouble turning it off!

Would I recommend the Nowhere Man?

Yes, this is one of my favourite series! Action/thriller/adventure fans, if you haven’t experienced it yet, go and grab the first one and sit back and enjoy the ride! Thankfully for me there are a few more to go!
