I always enjoy an action book with conspiracy’s woven throughout. Breakthrough had all that, but with a background and story line I’ve not seen before. I listened to the entire book in 2 days. I can’t write more in this review because I’m too impatient to check and see if there is a sequel. Well done. Fun and edge-of-your-seat action throughout.

Finished in 3 days. Couldn’t turn it off. Wish I read the the first 3 Gunner Fox books firsf. I came across books 4-6 and enjoyed them so much I went and found 1-3. Good either way, but now I’m going to spend another 20 or 30 hours just to listen to the second part again, now that I know the background.

I can honestly say I’ve never read (listened) to a book that knew me SO much better than I know myself.

What I’ve just always thought was “me” or “my own issues” are actually an interwoven pattern of thought and behavior that affects many, many men and that what I defined as “being the nice guy” is a measurable, understandable, yet incorrect, way of viewing myself and others.

If Dr. Glover gave 100 examples of what a “Nice Guy” thinks/does, I have to say probably 97 of them were a description of me far more accurate than any self-aware or self-examining descriptions by me, of me, could ever be.

I’m blown away, and just regret it took me until age 50 to find a book like this that feels it was written about ME after countless interviews with ME. But I also take a lot of encouragement knowing I’m not the only one who views things as I do. And as this audiobook brought to light.

I think this is the first review I’ve taken the time to write, and I have 167 titles finished on Audible. But IF I can absorb and follow this, it CAN actually change my life. Thank you Sr. Glover!

While a lot of this short book is basic (but still a valuable reminder), I found it motivated me to rethink my “to do list strategy,” which ultimately is a time management and quality of life strategy. I’ve tried everything, but now I finally feel that maybe I have some tools to make it work. I’ve listened three times, reinforcing the concepts and helping me apply those to work and life.

Finished the trilogy in 4 days. I found myself commenting out loud a few times and reminding myself “it’s just a book!” Upon finishing I immediately bought another Akart trilogy.

Interesting and enjoyable. Thought provoking even more so. But as a 48-yr old non-millennial it was a little frustrating. This is not a millennial problem. It’s not a GenX problem. It’s ALL of us trying to live, work, raise families, deal with debt etc. It comes across as “feel sorry for us because you never had to deal with what we do.” But the reality is we do. And on top of that, we also have to figure out social media and technology, it wasn’t what we were raised on. I think if the author wants to be sincere we’d have to admit that every generation since Adam and Eve has had struggles. And even with technology in some ways our lives are harder than ever. Busier and more stressful no doubt. It’s been a while since I read (or listened!) to a book that caused me to feel anything. And this is the first review of my nearly half-century life. I’d recommend this but don’t ever think “older” generations don’t struggle. Overflowing emails, 24 hour workdays and mountains of debt is “All-Gen.”. It’s today’s world.

I've listened to 16 Harry Bosch books in a row, all in the last 5 months. I have to say I wasn't overly excited that the book had two "stars." I was wrong. This was a page turner and probably my favorite so far out of the entire series. The narrator was good but I much prefer the other narrator for Bosch's voice.
