Beautiful & Accessible

I loved the translation and how the translator brought this ancient story to life. Claire Danes was excellent as the narrator, imbuing the right level of emotion throughout.

Although the introduction was long, I found it fascinating and wouldn't have appreciated the story as much without first having listened to it. I plan to relisten to the introduction and perhaps the whole book as well.

Brilliant & Thought Provoking

Revisado: 12-03-22

The story is intricate, but ties together, and is filled with points at which to reflect on and relate to both our modern era and our understanding of the past.

The story moves quickly and it feels like we're along for the ride with the compelling protagonists. There are a few different characters I thought were super interesting especially Diana and Adam.

It took me a few chapters to lock into the narration, but ultimately I found John Waters perfect for a conspiratorial tale, with his raspy voice.

Highly memorable, and recommended.

Essential Listening/Reading

Revisado: 08-31-22

One of the most important, thought provoking, and sure to be memorable books I have read or listened to. The author does a fabulous job narrating and I'm grateful for it. I hope we can all learn from the perspective Christopher Ryan shares here.

Compelling Listen

Revisado: 05-25-22

I made my way through this audiobook quickly as the stories and underlying message were compelling. It gave me a chance to learn about modern medicine, aviation, human fallibility, the heroism of teams and the heroism of the simple checklist.

Essential Listening

Revisado: 03-03-21

This is a rare audiobook, that I will listen to multiple times. Bryan Stevenson's delivery was nuanced and deeply moving. It's such a difficult subject matter to confront, but with his guidance it's possible and in a deeper sense, it is necessary. I learned and grew as a result of this book. Thank you Mr. Stevenson for all you do!

Highly Actionable Information

Revisado: 11-03-20

Engaging, practical advice on building good habits and dropping bad ones. Even if you don't take all the advice, you can pick a few strategies and easily put them into immediate action.

Practical Advice

Revisado: 07-29-19

Practical advice that can have immediate benefits for your business, even with partial implementation. The last chapter gives Wickman's recommendation of the sequence in which to implement the described tools, which is different from the order they are presented in proceeding chapters. You may want to listen to the last chapter early so you have this order in mind.

Excellent Primer, Well Done

Revisado: 05-31-04

I recommend "How to Become a Marketing Superstar." I've run a small business for the past five years, but have little marketing experience (most of my business has come from personal or client referrals). Jeffrey Fox's presentation of marketing principles was both informative and enjoyable. I found the exercises in the book helped make listening an interactive experience. My only complaint is that the audio version is abridged, and an important concept in the book, "dollarizing" your value, is only summarized. The author refers listeners to the print version of the book for details on this concept. That being said, he still gives you a working idea of the concept, and the rest of the book made the purchase and listen more than worth it.
