Tom Wood answered Tarsha's question: Hi Tom, Is there a reason I can’t get book 9 and 10 in America? Ebooks or audio. There hasn't been a North American release of those books so far and the UK edition is restricted by territorial licensing so the ebook and audiobook are not available outside the UK. It's a publishing issue and I'm hopeful it will be resolved before See Full Answer

Tom Wood answered Jkane's question: Hi Tom, is there any update on an Audible version of A Quiet Man? Also, is there any chance that Rob Shapiro will record that and Traitor at the same time, so as to REALLY please your audience?!?! Thanks! No update at this moment but I am waiting to hear news to that end. Rob is as keen to narrate the new books as my North American listens are to hear him once more and hopefully the wait between titles won't be very long

Tom Wood liked Simon Reindl's review of Traitor (Victor #10): "A brilliant Victor tale Great setup. Breakneck pace as always, fantastic Victor story. You could read it without the others, having read the series you find the references to his history."

Tom Wood liked Jamie Baggaley's review of Traitor (Victor #10): "Viktor it's back!! The finest of all anti heroes. Convoluted yet not convoluted. Deep yet shallow. All business, much to his own discomfort"

Tom Wood liked jason Bishop's review of Traitor (Victor #10): "No one quite like Victor For Aristotle, patience was bitter but the fruit it bore was sweet. For Tolstoy, it was one of the two most powerful warriors, with the other being time.. Traitor (Book 10) did not leave me disappointed, Tom has created a cha" Read more of this review »

Quotes by Tom Wood (?)

“Victor waited until Ozols had passed out of the light before squeezing the trigger with smooth, even pressure. Suppressed gunshots interrupted the early morning stillness. Ozols was hit in the sternum, twice in rapid succession. The bullets were low powered, subsonic 5.7 mm, but larger rounds could have been no more fatal. Copper-encased lead tore through skin, bone, and heart before lodging side by side between vertebrae. Ozols collapsed backward, hitting the ground with a dull thud, arms outstretched, head rolling to one side. Victor melted out of the darkness and took a measured step forward. He angled the FN Five-seveN and put a bullet through Ozols’s temple. He was already dead, but in Victor’s opinion there was no such thing as overkill.”
― Tom Wood, The Hunter

“Funny, because the way I see it, the more friends I have, the better I’m doing at life.” “Ah,” Victor said, “but friends can be bought. Enemies are always earned.”

“Victor stepped away from the spy hole of the door opposite and raised his gun. He fired, squeezing the trigger ten times in rapid succession, emptying the magazine of exactly half its ammunition. The hotel door was thick, solid pine, but the bullets in the FiveseveN were shaped like rifle rounds and cut through it with barely any loss in velocity. Two heavy objects hit the carpet, one thud after the other. The door creaked in front of him.”
― Tom Wood, The Hunter
