The most interesting book on math I have ever listened to
Revisado: 02-29-20
To be fair this is the o my book on Math that I have ever listened too, but I found it to be engaging and quite interesting. Once you get used to math being pronounced maths the author reading his own stuff it’s great. His enthusiasm for the material comes through in every word. Additionally I would say he has armed me with countless dad jokes for the days in my future helping teach my children math when that day comes. I ended up getting the book because a work mate stumbled upon his Arturo regarding Pepsi being sued for a harder jet and after that I needed the book. All in all one of the better listens of the several hundred audio books I have and would highly recommend. An extra benefit is how he breaks down mistakes, any who manages people or works in project management should listen to this as it will change they way you go about root cause analysis. Hope you enjoy.

After 9/11, the United States made one of the most secretive and dangerous deals in its history. The evidence against the powerful Saudis who coordinated the attack would be buried. In return, King Faisal would promise to keep the oil flowing and deal with the conspirators in his midst. When the king's own nephew is discovered funding ISIS, the president suspects that the Saudis never intended to live up to their agreement.

Scott Brick is always a win

I very much enjoyed the story and Brick’s narration is great however a departure from the classic George Guidall which had become some attached to the Mitch Rapp story voices. The only disappointing part of the story was that I wanted more, they brought back a lot of characters and I wanted more, I feel like I could have been a 17 or 20 hour book as opposed to 11 and have the team accomplish more or get more development out of them, Grisha bs Mitch was such a great battle and I don’t think we got to experience a fraction of his ability in this story. Ultimately still very entertaining, just found myself wanting more.
