Unfortunately I had to give this book one star for overall quality because it does not work as an audio book. It has a helpful useful content for a written book but I wasted my money on the audio version. The content is mostly list of useful terms, words and phrases as well as grammar rules. Unfortunately these items cannot be easily accessed in an audio version it would be great to have them in written form so you can go to a list to find the term or word that you need. I have listened to many audio language learning books in many different languages and this one is a fail for audio. In an audiobook you want something that will teach you to speak and use repetition as you learn so you remember. Some of the best books I've ever listen to for this purpose are the "Spanish for the Busy (Housewife, Traveler, and Medical Professional) series. I would consider this book in written form first and then possibly audio if you're interested in the pronunciation but there are many other books that will help with pronunciation I wouldn't waste my money on this one for that purpose alone.
