Good Points: Great book. Very helpful & insightful

This is a great book to listen to. It is really insightful to new authors like myself. The only downside is that it is VERY VERY repetitive; but I suppose this was done by the author to emphasise some key points. Overall though.. it is still my top choice listen for any prospective author

Not Very Useful in Audio Format

This audiobook has the problem, common to a lot of read aloud instructions: it had not been edited for the listeners. Many references to the web links are absolutely useless for those who listen while driving or walking. But it gives you an overall picture of the publishing process and options if you are patient to listen to the whole thing.
