Great writing tool

Revisado: 09-29-24

Thank the author for releasing an audio version of this book. This is just what I needed. I also placed an order for the paperback version. I've been looking for this tool for many years. (Audio version) I'm not a writer, and English is not my first language. Have been looking for an audio program that tackles writing in every aspect. Now I've found it. Thank you!

My review may be biased.
I'm a slow reader and need this audio to speed up my reading.
The audiobook comes with a PDF file downable on Audible.com, but I still purchased a paper copy of this book to ease my studying. (and the result is great!)
The author is fantastic in producing visual illustrations to simplify math and logic learning.
My background is old school imperative Java/C programming and I benefit from these illustrations to adapt to vectorization programming paradigm.

Thank you Manning for creating this audio companion! I'm a slow reader and need this audio to guide me through the text. You'd need to get the text/paper version to fully understand the content. This audio is for the first edition of the book. That means you can buy cheap used books from Amazon. Although some technical details have been changed over the past few years, the basics are still the same. Once you get the paper version, this experience is pretty immersive! You just need to listen to the content like a story and refer to the examples on the paper version. The narrator's voice is pretty engaging. It makes the experience even better. This comment refers to Docker in Action. For the text, I'd prefer paper to digital so I can flip back and forth finding references. A paper version would also help remember the command/script/variables structures. We all sort of using our graphic/text memory.
BTW, I'd need to pause the audio when an example (code/command) is presented so expect to pause the audio frequently.

Edit:
I see some issues with the outdated contents now. I'll list them below.
- Chapter 4: "Volumn Containers" are no longer recommended. Use Docker Volume instead.

Edit:
Due to the content update in the 2nd edition of the book, I can no longer recommend this audio. I personally also have the 2nd edition in paper format. However, I'll keep the rating to encourage Manning to produce more audio content like this.

Narrator can lower the pitch of voice a bit

Revisado: 12-23-22

I gave 4 stars to the audio version because I also have the print version. Without the print/Kindle version, you can't make sense of the audio version because all the code listings are omitted. However, I recently became a fan of Manning's audio books. I'm a slow reader and love to have the audio companion to keep my pace.
This is not a book for beginners. You may need to have basic knowledge of Kubernetes.
The narrator has a bright voice, but I wish he could lower the pitch a bit so my ears can feel more comfortable after long listening.
Thank you!
