- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Dearest customers, I hope you see this message. I want you to realize that this is an incredible audiobook. In my eyes, it was simply one of those audio books you can not skip. You can not ignore it, because it is one of the best on the market. I may become repetitious here, but that's simply how I think about it. In the beginning, I was questioning where it was going, but after listening to it for some time, I got into it. Then I saw this book for what it really was: A fantastic endeavor by an educated writer and expert narrator.
