Great book but dull performance
I love this book. I have it in hard copy and it is probably the best book on innovation around.
However I find Max's narration really irritating. He seems to be concentrating so much on pronunciation that the performance loses all emotion. It could and should be so much better for such a great book!

Long winded
Would you try another book written by Max Mckeown or narrated by Max Mckeown?
Not really as I've listened to 2 now and they are both long winded and repetitive. Could easily be more to the point and easier to follow. Some decent content
I guess though.
What could Max Mckeown have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Be more concise, don't repeat the same point
Would you be willing to try another one of Max Mckeown’s performances?
No
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The Innovation Book?
Most of the middle sections
