Too short and (sorry) too old
I came away from this with two impressions. Firstly, that this Abridged version has cut Mr Moore's life story down to the bare minimum in order not to strain his voice during the recordings. It just left too much out of what's been an interesting life. It doesn't help that a big chunk at the end is devoted to his work for UNICEF - a charity that he is deservedly passionate about, but for the listener it means even less of his film career is covered in this brief 2hrs 40mins. My second impression was (sorry to be cruel) that at 80 years old Mr Moore's voice is too far gone to bring the necessary energy to the telling. He starts with a bounce at each new section but then quickly dies away into a slowish slur. The same fault applies to his 'Bond on Bond' recording.
For those who want a slice of Roger Moore's wonderful wit and bonhomie, I recommend instead 'Last Man Standing' - interesting and funny tales from his movie and TV career - which is both Unabridged and read in a decent Moore--ish drawl by the excellent Jonathan Keeble.

Superb!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, Roger Moore is as smooth and witty as ever, will now look for other books narrated by him, his voice is very easy to listen too - an essential skill for audio books!

Very interesting Autobiography.
It is always a pleasure when you read/listen to a book that has something that you can relate to, Roger Moore is one of those people, someone we all know and like.
A great listen, thoroughly enjoyabe and as with most Autobiogs there is always a little something you get to find out that you never knew.
Well worth the listen.

Wonderfully smooth …
Such a gentleman, old school film star that shone through anything he put his mind too , disappointed with some of the reviews , if one has nothing nice to say one should just not speak… Sir Roger Moore was indeed a legend ….

It's like having a chat with Roger Moore
Loved it, it was shorter than I wanted. I found the unicef part so revealing about how a kind man Roger Moore was.

Tremendous, read in the Moore style
If you are ever in doubt, just ask yourself, what would Roger Moore do. It is a shameless stream of name dropping mixed with urgh super stories. I recommend it.

loved every word
listening to Roger Moore telling you his life story is something I have made a habit of.
sometimes a little sad, always interesting, and very funny.
I loved Roger Moore when I was a kid watching the soy who loved me on the cinema .
But the more you know about the real man, the more you love him.
Generous great Man.
Thankyou Roger Moore, great actor with sense of humour, kind hearted man and UNICEF ambassador who travelled the world visiting children in desperate need.
A real Hero! ❤
