excellent

Where does Steve Jobs rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

my favourite, although I've not had much experience in reading biographies.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The main man himself.

What about Dylan Baker and Walter Isaacson (introduction) ’s performance did you like?

easy voice to listen to.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

100 % although it is way to long for one sitting.

Any additional comments?

I honestly loved this book. I didn't realise how inspirational this guy was. people say he was harsh. but you can only be taken back by his drive and passion. He has become somewhat of my hero after this read.

.

Good quality, well read, addictive story. Jobs was a true innovator, his Zen philosophy seemed to manifest through his ideas and products rather his own behavior.

This was a very insightful book, one of my favorites

After listening to The Innovators by Walter Isaacson this was next on my list. This book is a very insightful look into the world of a visionary. A must read.

Honestly about great man who built great products

He built products people didn't know yet they would so badly need. His passionate about proper design makes you think how everything in the world should be.

Not for Bozos!

It's a long story that gets harder to listen to as you know how it ends and by the time you get there you'll wish he could live forever.
He does live on in his legacy of Apple products, which are pretty great and Toy Story of course!
