Wonderful for Patrick Stewart fans out there!

I grew up, watching Star Trek, the next generation, following the exploits of the enterprise and it’s valiant leader, Captain Jean, Luke Picard. Later on, I came on to admire the X-Men series as well as several other performances Patrick Stewart was in.
Listening to Patrick read his own memoirs, was exhilarating for me, Patrick Stewart treats in a voice that engages you from the first second of the book until the closing remarks. It also made me aware that I’ve never had a chance to see Patrick Stewart on stage and that’s the thing I came to regret.
I highly recommend this book for anyone who’s ever been a Star Trek/X-Men fan and wanted to know a little more about the character in the lead role for all those films. Patrick provides his own point of view of the series of the different characters and gives a lot of behind the scene anecdotes I never knew butenjoyed reading.
Oh, and all that wonderful read and a super performance by Sir Patrick Stewart

It felt like a fireside chat with a friend

I listen to the whole book in five sessions. Fully immersive, I listen to it as I went through my daily chores, finding myself in the sitting in the dark at the end of the day, fully relaxed. I know it’s one-sided, but I now feel that I can call Patrick my friend.

Wonderful narration by Sir Patrick of his memoirs

It was a treat having the great man narrate his own memoirs. So honest, humble and emotional at times, it was a truly wonderful listen.

Absolutely brilliant!

Extremely detailed account of an extraordinary life. Hearing it in a voice of an author made it for an experience like no other. The whole 18 hours felt like watching a movie.
