21st century Dale Carnegie

Revisado: 07-29-23

Takes very specific approach of reading a room and people based on South Korea’s secret of success as nation. Does a fine finding the thin line between balancing common sense, collectivist and individuality. Especially enjoyed and appreciated the chapter on Nunchi vs empathy.

As good as they get

Rarely do I leave a review
This story kept me riveted from start to finish. On equal footing with Connelly Child & Wambaugh.

Top tier Lawyer vs con artists driveway book!

Revisado: 02-09-20

Having listened to over a hundred books from audible in the last 13 plus years this one ranks right near the top! So good I feel compelled to write a review. This story had a top notch reader, storyline and such believable characters with nuanced scenarios that I really looked forward to long drives in the car. I’m planning on feasting on the remaining Martin Clark’s books with future credits - hopefully with the equally talented David Aaron Baker as the reader. The ending really caught me by surprise. Spoiler alert! - I especially enjoyed the bittersweet acknowledgment of the main character when he lamented how he would rather have been left alone poorer but in his own community than to have found a way to get back at the grifters - waiting to finish out his time and cash in.

Another Follett Classic

Revisado: 07-12-10

When you've just finished 'Pillars of the Earth and World without End' the bar is set pretty darn high.
I was not disappointed.

Epic of the highest calibre!

Revisado: 07-09-10

After I reluctantly finished I was probably pumping up too high to get my wife interested in starting. After 1 of her co-workers strongly recommneded it she couldn't put it down. (My mother in-law is reading it for a 2nd time).
In my opinion 'World Without End' equals 'Pillars of the Earth' not only in size but character development and architecture of plot.

1st Archer read, instant Archer fan!

Revisado: 07-09-10

This ranks right at the top of the best books I have listened to in years. Everyone I have recommended this book to, loved it also! Hard to believe the original 'Count of Monte Cristo' could be any better.

Dissapointed

Revisado: 07-09-10

I really looked forward to this listen but I was somewhat disillusioned with the irritating reader and the unrelateable characters. I think fans of Stephen King's 'Duma Key' would probably love this book.

Renegade person, rambling plot!

Revisado: 07-09-10

Only the choices and determination of Charlie Wilson propelled me to continue a plethora of people, places and past events.

Confusing writing and depressing.

Revisado: 07-09-10

In fairness just not my kind of writing or genre.
I found myself zoning out and hitting the playback on every listen. Does have a degree of emotional punch but full of angst.

Top of my 'A-list' for non-fiction!

Revisado: 07-09-10

The book that has affected my career most positively as a teacher unlike any other book. Warning: starting this book may cause drastic loss in sleep. If you are fascinated with what MAKES talent, virtually un-put-downable!
