It's an overall great approach however when it's very hard to discern exactly what sound is being made by the speaker errors are introduced when you don't know the spelling of the transliteration. For this reason people have published transcripts online however they have been sued by the maker of this book and forced to take those transcripts offline

It would help if they told you the pinyin spelling

the conversations towards the end are a little too fast but you can always rewind in 30 second intervals as many times as you want so it's bearable.
