Description
The author of The Eternal World seamlessly combines history, biotechnology, action, and adventure in this high-concept thriller in the spirit of James Rollins, Brad Thor, and Douglas Preston.
John Smith has a special gift that seems more like a curse: He can access other people's thoughts. He hears the songs stuck in their heads, their most private traumas and fears, the painful memories they can't let go. The CIA honed his skills until he was one of their most powerful operatives, but Smith fled the agency and now works as a private consultant, trying to keep the dark potential of his gift in check - and himself out of trouble.
But now Smith is unexpectedly plunged into dangerous waters when his latest client, billionaire software genius Everett Sloan, hires him to investigate a former employee - a tech whiz kid named Eli Preston - and search his thoughts for some very valuable intellectual property he's stolen. Before John can probe Preston's mind, his identity is compromised, and he's on a run for his life with Sloan's young associate, Kelsey.
Hunted by shadowy enemies with deep resources and unknown motives, John and Kelsey must go off the grid. John knows their only hope for survival is using his powers to their fullest - even if means putting his own sanity at risk.

Familiar story but still worth it
It's a fairly common "human weapon" story: The operative shaped by a crappy childhood, toughened by the military and desensitized by covert missions who now is out on his own, rich, and paired with a sexy young thing. Add to this plot a somewhat familiar storyline of having psychic abilities that are used for both good and evil. The notable twist is that it's skillfully written and told in a time travel way that doesn't lose or confuse you. Instead it holds your intense interest in two, sometimes three, storylines. To be candid, though, half way through I was ready to give it 5 shining stars, but then in the middle it wasn't that original and it became maybe even a little preachy, but once you get over that hump it is a roller coaster of action and page turning. Oh, and Bronson Pinchot - BRAVO!

Fan of Farnsworth
Imaginative, as always. Mr. Farnsworth manages to come up with the most implausible characters (his first three novels were about the President's vampire) and make them come to life. His plots are always extremely entertaining. He can't write fast enough for me.

Excellent Story!!!
Would you listen to Killfile again? Why?
I loved this book, the writing was excellent, I mean really excellent, there are so many authors just throwing words onto a page to get yet another book out regardless playing off their names & previous works, it's sad most especially for the person attempting to read these works. Farnsworth is talented, I haven't read his other books but Killfile was fantastic, highly recommend!

Outstanding Book...could not stop listening.
What made the experience of listening to Killfile the most enjoyable?
The reader was spot on. The dialogue in this book is terrific. It is witty, sarcastic and very funny. This is science fiction but it is done so well you believe it. That is a sign of a great book.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Killfile?
When you think the main character, John, is out of options and Eli Preston, the protagonist, has him against the wall, John again outsmarts him.
Which scene was your favorite?
Without giving away the book, the final scene between John and the Everett Sloan, guy who initially hired him.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
John, the main character, talking about growing up in foster care with his special gift and how isolated he felt.
Any additional comments?
I think this would make a fabulous sci-fi movie. I could see Ryan Reynolds playing John Smith because he reminded me of the character, Deadpool. I will read more of Christopher Farnsworth's books because his writing is superb.

Weird. Scary. I couldn't stop listening
No idea what I expected, but this was a great book and I plan to listen to another by Farnsworth in the next week or so. Creepy because it's not really that unrealistic. Narrator was perfect, especially for the main character, John.

Psi-Power Thriller
Like Farnsworth's President's Vampire trilogy the John Smith series gives us a fun genre mix-up. Both exist in the thriller category but stir in a little of the paranormal to make things a little unusual.
Pinchot is the reason I started this book. He is great. I finished because this is an exciting story.

Narrator is off this time around
Another excellent book by Chris Farnsworth. Alas, not the best Bronson Pinchot has produced, by far. I've listened to him narrate a wide variety of stories, including Farnsworth's series, The President's Vampire. Unfortunately for this book, Pinchot's narration is all over the place - he switches the narrator's voice in unpredictable ways that aren't required by the text. The narrator sounds like he's got multiple personality disorder! If I were Audible, I'd have Pinchot re-do the book - he's capable of much better work!

Clever, Different, Mentally Interesting &Enjoyable
I am not sure what I expected but it certainly wasn't a clever and unique perspective with lots of depth story written around computer crime. And Bronson Pinchot's PERFORMANCE is such a treat. Before I even finished listening I was already checking out what other books Farnsworth has written and what others are narrated (more accurately said performed) by Pinchot. Totally - Totally enjoyed this book/listen.

Awesome
This was a great listen. Fast pace you never knew what new character would pop up. This Author made it real easy to follow when there was flashbacks of the main character, some authors are not always good at that but he pulled it off. So if your looking for a book maybe too pass the weekend with here it is.
