About this listen

FROM THE SHADOW is the story of a country boy who endured a series of tragic events, leaving him alone in a big city. The cruel hand of fate had one more blow: a young offenders' institution. There, in his darkest hour, it would be the bars he lifted, not those that bound him, which would finally change the trajectory of his life - forever.

Dorian Yates' disarming honesty would lead to a reader of an early manuscript saying of FROM THE SHADOW, "I had to force myself to put it down -- the thought of finishing it, of the most real thing I'd ever read coming to an end, was unbearable."

Great book, great story, wish it was longer than 8 hours! There is a few mistakes with the audio dropping in and out (loud and quiet) but it’s not a big deal. The story overall is great.

Wish it was longer!

I have followed Dorian on and off since the early 90’s and this book is typical Dorian . In this book Dorian is blunt and honest like he always is in opinion . There are also some very interesting contributions from his former competitors. If your a fan ( or not) of Dorian Yates and is career, you won’t be disappointed. All the best .

We grew up in the 80's and 90's, worked hard, trained hard, I can relate to everything Dorian has said in his book, from his highs and also to his lows, a brutal and honest account from himself. I really enjoyed this book, was unable to put it down until I finished it.

As all fans of Dorian Yates, this biography is a really nice look at his life and his achievements, I’m glad it was read by Dorian, he did a great job

The only thing was at the audio jumped about a little bit, from loud to quiet and back again, and it was quite weird listening to Dorian and talk about Dorian in the third person.

That being said, I really enjoyed the book, it was a great listen and highly recommend it

Really interesting biography, a real glimpse behind the curtain.
